00:00:00 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:00:03 Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:00:09 And we are back.
00:00:12 It's hard to believe you guys have had such a hold over me
00:00:15 that we're doing another season this soon only for you.
00:00:18 Only for you, and not because we owe it to Hotstar.
00:00:21 Either you loved us way too much,
00:00:22 or maybe last season warranted a little redo
00:00:25 with a cleaner conscience, with a K.
00:00:28 Nevertheless, we're serving, we're giving,
00:00:30 and we're ready for you to eat it all up and leave no crumbs.
00:00:33 I'll soon find out from all of you
00:00:34 online how bad I was at that.
00:00:36 But thanks to you and your words on the internet,
00:00:39 we are now way more evolved as a fraternity, as a breed,
00:00:43 and also as a show.
00:00:45 So if your favorites are a bit boring at times, guys,
00:00:48 it's because in 2023, with your social media
00:00:50 posts being louder than our item numbers on Full Blast,
00:00:54 even a single tweet can be a full-blown PR nightmare.
00:00:59 Moving on from nightmares to a dream come true,
00:01:01 my first guests tonight are two bonafide superstars
00:01:04 that make one blockbuster of a couple.
00:01:07 They're both supremely talented, gorgeously stunning,
00:01:09 and after years of me asking, they're
00:01:11 finally RS, DP'd to gracing this couch
00:01:14 with their collective gorgeous presence.
00:01:16 After 11 years of them being the it couple of the industry,
00:01:20 it's finally time for you and me to take a deep dive
00:01:23 into the [NON-ENGLISH] of their [NON-ENGLISH]
00:01:25 Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls,
00:01:26 please welcome Bollywood royalty,
00:01:28 Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh.
00:01:29 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:01:32 Oh, my god.
00:01:39 Hello.
00:01:40 Oh, my god.
00:01:41 How gorgeous.
00:01:42 Oh.
00:01:43 Oh, god.
00:01:44 What's happening here?
00:01:45 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:01:47 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:01:49 Multiple times over to both of you.
00:01:51 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:01:52 Oh.
00:01:54 Over a period of many movies.
00:01:57 Oh.
00:01:58 Where are you sitting?
00:01:59 He wants to sit very close to me.
00:02:01 OK.
00:02:02 That is the idea.
00:02:02 You want to sort your seating out first?
00:02:05 Yes, I do.
00:02:05 This is too far, man.
00:02:07 Plus, I've not seen her in a long time.
00:02:08 She just come back after two weeks shooting for "Fighter."
00:02:12 Yeah, but those urges will resist for the moment.
00:02:14 You want to go and sit closer?
00:02:15 No, no, this is not working.
00:02:16 I feel like there's a place for a third
00:02:18 when you all sit like this.
00:02:19 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:02:21 The third wheel in our relationship.
00:02:23 Third wheel in your--
00:02:24 am I really sometimes?
00:02:25 Of course.
00:02:26 Middle of the night, he's talking
00:02:27 or having his romantic conversation with somebody.
00:02:30 But at least I know it's you, so it's fine.
00:02:31 So it's safe.
00:02:32 It's safe.
00:02:32 You're fine.
00:02:33 OK, oh, my god.
00:02:34 So we have Deepika and Ranveer, season opener
00:02:38 for the first time together post your shaadi.
00:02:40 Yeah.
00:02:41 You've never been as a couple anyway.
00:02:42 I feel very privileged.
00:02:43 Thank you for being on my show.
00:02:45 Thank you.
00:02:45 I don't think we'd--
00:02:46 Thank you for having us.
00:02:46 Yeah, I don't think we'd do it anywhere else.
00:02:49 I think we feel safe with you.
00:02:51 Yes.
00:02:52 First time in depth on your couch, Karan.
00:02:54 Oh, my god.
00:02:55 I love it.
00:02:55 It just sounds--
00:02:56 I don't know.
00:02:57 I just somehow can't take the word sexy out of this.
00:02:59 I'm just looking and you all are looking like smoking hot.
00:03:02 Is that the word?
00:03:02 Like, yeah.
00:03:03 Like, oof.
00:03:04 Oof, so much hotness on this couch.
00:03:07 Like, I'm sounding like a little bit of a--
00:03:10 what do you say?
00:03:11 What the word is?
00:03:11 Little turkey I'm sounding when I say it.
00:03:13 But I just don't have any of those emotions.
00:03:16 I just have like pure--
00:03:17 this is pure beauty.
00:03:18 Like, both of you are looking stunning.
00:03:20 Well done.
00:03:20 Thanks, turkey uncle.
00:03:21 [LAUGHTER]
00:03:23 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:03:25 Be mean to him from the start.
00:03:27 Give him like--
00:03:28 Yeah, yeah.
00:03:29 Be nice to me.
00:03:30 All right.
00:03:31 We all know that this has been a beautiful relationship that
00:03:35 culminated into a shadi.
00:03:37 And we know that many people have asked about the origin
00:03:40 of this relationship.
00:03:41 I know it began right after another serious relationship
00:03:44 of yours.
00:03:45 I think Deepika was still single in that phase.
00:03:47 And you were in a long-term relationship.
00:03:49 And then you met Deepika.
00:03:51 And I know it was on--
00:03:52 from what I remember, on the prep of "Ram Leela."
00:03:55 Yeah.
00:03:55 You didn't walk into that film thinking
00:03:58 that this is going to be the rest of my life, did you?
00:04:00 No, not at all.
00:04:01 No lie.
00:04:01 So what happened?
00:04:03 No, baby, it happened later.
00:04:04 But it started--
00:04:07 "Ram Leela" was supposed to happen with myself
00:04:09 and Kareena Kapoor in the lead.
00:04:10 Yes.
00:04:11 The set was ready.
00:04:12 One week before roll, for some reason,
00:04:15 Kareena had to exit the film.
00:04:17 Now we're sitting and wondering who to cast.
00:04:20 And "Cocktail" had just happened.
00:04:21 Yes.
00:04:22 So there was a discussion with Mr. Bhansali and all the ADs
00:04:25 and myself in the office.
00:04:27 Who should we take?
00:04:27 Who should we take?
00:04:28 And I was batting for team Deepika.
00:04:29 Because I had just seen "Cocktail."
00:04:31 Yeah.
00:04:31 And she got cast.
00:04:33 And famous or infamous reading that
00:04:37 happened at Mr. Bhansali's home in Warsaw,
00:04:41 I was supposed to meet him before her arrival.
00:04:43 So I was sitting on the table.
00:04:46 And the door was like there.
00:04:49 And he has these heavy doors.
00:04:52 And he lives by the seaside.
00:04:53 Yes.
00:04:53 So these heavy doors open.
00:04:55 And the gush of wind comes from the sea.
00:04:57 And she's in like white chicken curry.
00:05:01 Just like "Saadgi Ki Murat."
00:05:04 And--
00:05:05 All it needed was you with a camera.
00:05:06 Yeah.
00:05:07 Yeah.
00:05:07 That's all it needed.
00:05:08 And with a blower fan.
00:05:09 Didn't need.
00:05:09 The sea wind was there.
00:05:10 The sea wind was there.
00:05:11 OK.
00:05:11 So her hair is blowing like this.
00:05:13 That is how she entered.
00:05:14 I was like, "Oh my God."
00:05:17 So she comes and we're having this conversation
00:05:20 about the film and the characters
00:05:22 and this entire process that's going to ensue and whatnot.
00:05:24 And finally, we took a break for lunch.
00:05:26 And the writers, Mr. Bhansali, myself and Deepika
00:05:29 were sitting on the lunch table.
00:05:30 This is the moment, Karan.
00:05:31 So she's sitting right next to me, just like this.
00:05:34 And Mr. Bhansali obviously wants to treat us.
00:05:36 Yeah.
00:05:37 Make a lunch out of this.
00:05:39 So there's all these delicacies.
00:05:41 And there's crab as well.
00:05:42 Yeah.
00:05:43 So we're all eating crab.
00:05:44 And like this, she was smiling.
00:05:48 And I noticed a piece of crab was stuck over here.
00:05:51 Oof.
00:05:52 So, yeah.
00:05:53 So I'm being a bit of a smartass.
00:05:55 I'm like, "Let me catch her.
00:05:56 Put her on the spot.
00:05:58 She'll feel a little embarrassed, vulnerable.
00:06:00 I'll be like, "You got something in your teeth."
00:06:01 She'll be like, "Hi, hi."
00:06:02 You know.
00:06:03 So I'm like, "You got a little something."
00:06:05 She's like, "Okay. Clean it."
00:06:07 I was like, "Okay."
00:06:08 And then, I took my little pinky finger
00:06:12 and I cleaned a little bit of crab out from here.
00:06:16 This, to me, was like putting my hand in a socket.
00:06:19 You know.
00:06:21 The 440 volt shock that I got that day.
00:06:25 It was like...
00:06:26 I'm feeling the...
00:06:27 Oh, Deepthi, you go, girl.
00:06:29 You go, girl.
00:06:30 She was not like, "Oof, what is this?"
00:06:32 I'm feeling the tremors of that jolt.
00:06:34 I think it's great.
00:06:35 Yeah.
00:06:35 So that's how it all kind of began.
00:06:37 So there, you know, there's that...
00:06:39 That moment of spark happened right there and then.
00:06:43 So sad. I always have something stuck in my teeth.
00:06:46 And nobody offers to clean it.
00:06:48 Ever. It's never happened to me.
00:06:49 I'm like...
00:06:50 But then, post this meeting, the relationship,
00:06:55 how long was the gap between
00:06:57 the first time you met and you started kind of dating officially?
00:07:00 - The next day. - There was no gap.
00:07:01 - The next day? - Yeah, yeah.
00:07:02 I mean, I wouldn't say dating, but...
00:07:04 - See, that meeting... - Honestly...
00:07:05 That reading happened.
00:07:06 And then I would go to her set every day
00:07:09 to meet her.
00:07:09 The kind of like...
00:07:11 - Whatever the word is. - I was single.
00:07:13 He had just come out of a relationship.
00:07:15 I wanted to be single for a while
00:07:17 because I had come out of a couple of difficult relationships.
00:07:20 And I was going through this phase where I said,
00:07:22 "I just want to be...
00:07:23 not be attached and not be committed.
00:07:25 And I just want to have fun because this is the age too."
00:07:28 - And, you know, and then... - Yeah.
00:07:30 And he comes along.
00:07:31 And so I didn't commit, commit.
00:07:33 In fact, until he proposed to me,
00:07:34 there was no real commitment as such.
00:07:37 Even if we were technically allowed to maybe see other people,
00:07:40 - Yeah. - we would just keep coming back to each other.
00:07:43 So, I did meet other people, but...
00:07:47 I wasn't interested or excited by...
00:07:50 - Anyone. - by anyone else that I was seeing.
00:07:52 In my mind, I was committed to him.
00:07:54 So, I would meet other people, but at the back of my head,
00:07:57 it was like, "I'm going back to him."
00:07:59 Was there a point where you discussed
00:08:00 that you all are now in a relationship?
00:08:02 No.
00:08:03 We would go out on dates.
00:08:05 And once you... It's not really said,
00:08:07 but once you take a holiday together
00:08:09 - or you spend New Year's together, - Yeah.
00:08:11 - then it gets established that, - It's done a bunch.
00:08:13 "Okay, we're together."
00:08:14 I know there were two or three suitors
00:08:16 within the first six months.
00:08:17 - But... - Two or three suitors?
00:08:20 - Three suitors? - I love the way you made this into Bridgerton.
00:08:23 Yeah. I mean, a lot of guys were courting her.
00:08:26 - Okay. - But I think it was...
00:08:29 - Like who? - Like who?
00:08:31 You just said, "I was seeing other people,
00:08:34 but I would go back to him."
00:08:35 - "You don't remember me now." - Before?
00:08:36 Yeah, no, I can't remember the people.
00:08:40 I remember very clearly.
00:08:42 - Okay, we'll chat later. - Yeah.
00:08:44 He's saying, "I remember very clearly."
00:08:46 What about you? The suitees?
00:08:48 Were there any suitees?
00:08:49 I knew, like I've always had faith in myself,
00:08:54 I knew that I was going to be the one.
00:08:57 - I just knew. - You just knew.
00:08:59 - I said... - You knew you were going to be the one?
00:09:01 Yes, my love, because I knew...
00:09:02 And you definitely knew she was the one?
00:09:04 Six months in, I knew she was the one.
00:09:05 How many years did you date before you got married?
00:09:08 We started dating in 2012.
00:09:10 2012. So, this is our 11th year together.
00:09:14 2012, I proposed to you in 2015.
00:09:18 - Yeah. - And then we were secretly engaged
00:09:20 for three years, then we got married.
00:09:22 - You were secretly engaged? - Yeah.
00:09:23 2015, I proposed to her.
00:09:25 Before anyone knew anything.
00:09:27 So, it was a six-year dating relationship.
00:09:30 And it was smooth, those six years?
00:09:32 2012, we met, then we started dating
00:09:34 and the filming of Ram Leela commenced.
00:09:37 So, half of 2012 into 2013.
00:09:39 It was during the filming of Ram Leela
00:09:41 that this was all actually happening.
00:09:43 - Yeah. - We were obviously making an adaptation
00:09:45 - of Romeo and Juliet. - Yes.
00:09:46 So, there was this fire and Mr. Bhansali
00:09:49 was only too happy to fan this fire
00:09:52 and it would just be so apparent.
00:09:55 - It was like... - There were times where we'd
00:09:58 you know, go to set together
00:10:00 and then we're literally like
00:10:02 - The shot is cut. - separated for like
00:10:03 whatever, one, two hours to get ready.
00:10:05 He's ready, you're ready, okay, come now.
00:10:07 We're hanging in each other's vans together.
00:10:08 Then the shot is ready, then we go for the shot together.
00:10:11 Then the shot is over, then we're sitting together.
00:10:13 - She'd sit on my lap. - Then the shot finishes
00:10:15 - and we're going back to the van to eat together. - After the shot.
00:10:17 We were inseparable.
00:10:18 And everybody who was watching this,
00:10:20 it was just in the air.
00:10:22 Like, this love that was happening was...
00:10:24 - It was in the air? - Yeah.
00:10:26 And I feel like somewhere it may have translated
00:10:28 - in the film also. - It did.
00:10:29 - Yeah. - I mean, it seemed like
00:10:31 the chemistry was real.
00:10:33 You know, which is like...
00:10:34 I mean, chemistry two actors have.
00:10:36 Many a time, it actually happens
00:10:38 - when you're not in a relationship. - Yeah.
00:10:39 But because this was the beginning of it,
00:10:41 I think it kind of came through stunningly.
00:10:44 - Like in the film, it was like... - It was very potent.
00:10:45 It was so evident that they wanted to...
00:10:47 that the both of you wanted to eat each other up.
00:10:48 - There you go. - Yeah.
00:10:49 And that was the case.
00:10:51 There were instances where...
00:10:53 - There is a picture. - Yeah.
00:10:54 - What? - There's a picture?
00:10:55 There's a picture of you, like, looking at me
00:10:58 - like... - Like with...
00:11:00 - Like this, right? - With voice in your head.
00:11:01 Yeah, with voice.
00:11:02 So, like, for instance,
00:11:05 there was that moment of the kiss.
00:11:08 A very, very passionate kiss
00:11:09 - in Ang Laga De Re. - Yeah.
00:11:11 And story-wise, what happens
00:11:13 is that Ram's friends want to call him down.
00:11:17 - So, they launch a brick through the window. - Yeah.
00:11:20 That's the story. That's the scene we were shooting.
00:11:23 So, we're lip-locked in this, like,
00:11:27 passionate, in the throes, rapturous throes of passion.
00:11:30 And the scene is Mr. Bansali likes to shoot things real
00:11:33 - as much as possible. - Yes.
00:11:34 - So, a brick has come through the window. - Oh, God!
00:11:38 We are oblivious to a brick coming through the window.
00:11:41 - It's still in it. - We didn't realise.
00:11:42 Not realising the...
00:11:44 - Really quite enjoying the moment. - Yeah.
00:11:46 So, morning to night, between shots,
00:11:48 we'd go home together also.
00:11:50 Between shots, we'd just be, like, at the monitor.
00:11:52 Like, just like...
00:11:53 So, then, this six-year relationship
00:11:56 and was there a big wedding proposal
00:11:59 with a diamond ring and everything else?
00:12:01 Did that happen?
00:12:02 So, Ram Leela happened.
00:12:04 And we're in this.
00:12:07 And at one point, when I felt right,
00:12:09 I decided she's the one.
00:12:11 Before someone else comes,
00:12:14 I'll go and put on my slippers.
00:12:16 What does it mean, "put on your slippers"?
00:12:19 - Make the booking. - Make the...
00:12:21 Advance booking.
00:12:22 Before anything can happen, just put a ring on it.
00:12:25 So, you put a beautiful diamond ring on it?
00:12:27 Yes, sir.
00:12:28 Beyond my resources at the time, perhaps.
00:12:32 But even so, a very impressive one.
00:12:34 I was in Cahootz with my sister and my mom,
00:12:37 acquiring the ring.
00:12:39 And we were going to take a holiday.
00:12:42 And I decided that I would propose to her on the holiday.
00:12:44 I got the ring and my folks were like,
00:12:47 "So, you're gonna propose?"
00:12:48 And I'm like, "Yeah."
00:12:49 Like, "You don't wanna consult with her parents
00:12:52 or ask her parents or anything?"
00:12:54 I didn't have that degree of maturity back then.
00:12:57 And I was like, "No, why?
00:12:59 I'm marrying her, so I'll ask her."
00:13:01 I mean, now in retrospect, perhaps they could have said,
00:13:03 "Maybe you should consider
00:13:05 touching base with her parents before you do this."
00:13:07 - Might have been. - Which I should have done.
00:13:08 - Might have been the right thing to do. - Yeah.
00:13:10 Which I did. So, I was like, "No, I'm marrying her.
00:13:13 I'll ask her."
00:13:14 So, we go to the Maldives.
00:13:17 And I've secretly carried the ring with me.
00:13:19 And we do the sand bank adventure.
00:13:22 So, a boat takes us out to the middle of the sea.
00:13:26 And there's just one tiny sliver of sand in the middle.
00:13:31 And all around is just nothing.
00:13:34 It's just sea. Infinite sea.
00:13:36 They drop you over there.
00:13:38 - They put up a tent for you. - Yeah.
00:13:39 And you can chill there for the day.
00:13:41 And then they leave.
00:13:42 So, it was literally just her and me.
00:13:45 - On an island. - On a sliver of sand.
00:13:47 In the middle of the sea.
00:13:49 I was like, "This is it. I've done it."
00:13:51 "This is the perfect scenario."
00:13:54 I also, in a way, kind of
00:13:57 admit that I kind of tricked her.
00:13:59 In a way, I said, "I'm going to make this proposal scene
00:14:01 so picture perfect
00:14:04 that she won't be able to…
00:14:05 - She'll be compelled to say yes." - Yes.
00:14:07 You know?
00:14:08 It'll feel like just so right.
00:14:11 Yeah.
00:14:12 So, they've dropped us off.
00:14:13 They've left.
00:14:14 It was just her and me on the island.
00:14:17 And I popped the question.
00:14:19 And gave her the ring.
00:14:21 She did not expect it.
00:14:23 She got emotional.
00:14:24 And that was it.
00:14:25 She said yes.
00:14:27 And I felt like the king of the world.
00:14:29 Oh, wow.
00:14:30 And…
00:14:31 And yeah.
00:14:32 Then we were engaged.
00:14:34 And the first meeting with the family?
00:14:35 Oh…
00:14:37 Okay. So…
00:14:40 The next chapter.
00:14:42 - Was the best. - In this saga.
00:14:43 - Changed gears. - Yeah.
00:14:44 - So, we come back from the Maldives. - Yeah.
00:14:46 And we go straight to Bangalore
00:14:48 because that was my big master plan.
00:14:50 Yeah.
00:14:50 We go to Bangalore.
00:14:51 I have not had…
00:14:52 We've been there about a day.
00:14:54 It's like the second day.
00:14:55 And I know that on the third day,
00:14:56 I'm going to one afternoon,
00:14:58 sit the family down and tell them,
00:15:00 "Look, I am truly, madly, deeply in love with your daughter.
00:15:03 I have proposed marriage to her."
00:15:06 And she has…
00:15:06 I had everything prepared.
00:15:08 Everything that I wanted to say.
00:15:10 To say. Yeah.
00:15:10 And on the second day in the evening,
00:15:12 we had gone to visit her family friends.
00:15:14 Very, very close family friends.
00:15:16 You can't even call them family friends.
00:15:17 They're like family.
00:15:18 There's five of them.
00:15:19 Five of us.
00:15:21 And we're having this wonderful evening.
00:15:23 We've gone.
00:15:24 I'm wondering what's coming up.
00:15:25 You know, I'm trying to charm them now also
00:15:27 because, you know, I want them to like me.
00:15:28 Yeah.
00:15:29 So, we're having snacks and…
00:15:31 And now she's coming to me on the side
00:15:33 and whispering in my ear.
00:15:35 Saying, "Listen, I'm going to tell them now."
00:15:37 And I was like, "Don't."
00:15:38 I just felt like if we were in a larger group,
00:15:41 it would be easier to make the news.
00:15:43 - Which again, was the worst thing to do. - Yeah.
00:15:47 You have to tell the nuclear family first.
00:15:49 - Yes. - My nuclear family knows.
00:15:51 Ideally, it should just be Prakash, Ujla, Anisha, me and Deepika.
00:15:55 - And that's where I should tell them. - Yes.
00:15:58 Except that she's chosen this evening.
00:16:00 - Because I was very nervous. - Yeah.
00:16:01 And she's whispering in my ear.
00:16:03 She's like, "I'm just going to say it now.
00:16:05 I'm just going to tell them."
00:16:06 I'm like, "Don't do it.
00:16:08 Don't even think about it."
00:16:09 This is the scene.
00:16:10 She's sitting here.
00:16:11 Everybody else is here.
00:16:13 I'm sitting at the head of the table
00:16:14 with my hands, mouth, everything engrossed.
00:16:18 And suddenly, out of nowhere,
00:16:20 out of absolutely nowhere,
00:16:23 she's like, "I didn't know you proposed marriage to me."
00:16:26 And I said, "Yes!"
00:16:27 I was like...
00:16:28 I didn't know...
00:16:32 In that moment, it's like, you know that sink?
00:16:35 You know where the blood rushes from?
00:16:38 The top of your head down?
00:16:39 Like a roller coaster.
00:16:40 It's like, what the hell?
00:16:42 And there's just pin drop silence.
00:16:45 - Yes. - Okay?
00:16:47 Like a scene from a film.
00:16:48 And Ujjala's face has just gone cold.
00:16:52 Okay, all this has happened.
00:16:54 Now I'm sensing everybody wants this to be
00:16:57 a happy, memorable moment.
00:16:58 But I can sense the undercurrents.
00:17:00 Everything has happened.
00:17:02 Hugs and celebrations and all of this.
00:17:05 We've gone home.
00:17:06 And I've gone into the room
00:17:09 in their Bangalore home.
00:17:11 And I've put my ear to the door.
00:17:14 And outside, Amma and Deepika are having it out.
00:17:18 She's saying, "Who is this guy?"
00:17:22 "He's proposed marriage."
00:17:24 "And you've said yes also?"
00:17:26 "Is this anyway?"
00:17:28 I mean, this whole drama is going on outside.
00:17:30 And you're listening like that.
00:17:32 - Literally with my ear... - Which I'm discovering now.
00:17:34 With my ear to the door like this.
00:17:36 "God, please save me."
00:17:37 So, all this has happened.
00:17:39 And then it took, obviously, a lot of years
00:17:42 and a lot of work on my part
00:17:44 to kind of make a place for myself
00:17:46 in Amma's heart.
00:17:48 But now I think it has happened.
00:17:51 And I'm one of her favourite people
00:17:54 in the whole world.
00:17:55 You would be.
00:17:56 You would absolutely be a great qualifier
00:17:58 for being Amma's favourite.
00:18:00 That, I think, is there in your DNA.
00:18:02 It's written all over your aura.
00:18:04 It's easy for you to, I think,
00:18:06 walk into somebody's life
00:18:07 and kind of sweep them off emotionally.
00:18:09 I think that is something you do well.
00:18:10 Like, Rohgi Randhawa.
00:18:12 - This side. - This side.
00:18:13 - Yeah. - And then,
00:18:14 this relationship looked stunning always.
00:18:16 Of course, you know, relationships
00:18:18 with two movie actors are always tough.
00:18:20 And that journey will remain.
00:18:22 But it culminated into the most beautiful wedding,
00:18:26 which was so private.
00:18:28 Because it was possibly one of the most intimate weddings.
00:18:31 Because it was just your core family
00:18:33 and very close friends.
00:18:35 Yeah.
00:18:35 But we are very grateful and very thankful
00:18:38 to the both of you
00:18:39 that you actually have decided to share
00:18:41 a glimpse of your marriage with us.
00:18:44 - Yeah. - I feel very privileged.
00:18:46 You haven't shown it to me as yet.
00:18:47 So, I'm going to see it live
00:18:48 and then share it with the rest of the world.
00:18:50 I really feel like it's very large of you
00:18:53 to share this. So, thank you.
00:18:55 But thank you, Gaurav.
00:18:56 The thing is, we are taking cognizance
00:18:59 of the fact that our fans
00:19:02 almost every day, you know,
00:19:06 ask us to share more of each other.
00:19:08 And now, it's been five years of our marriage.
00:19:11 - So, I thought this is a... - And an 11-year relationship.
00:19:12 Yeah, I thought this is a good moment to share.
00:19:15 This is... I'm just glad it's my moment as well.
00:19:19 Six years back, if you told me,
00:19:27 "Son, one day you will marry Deepika Padukone,"
00:19:29 I'd be like, "You've gone crazy."
00:19:31 There was a day and there is today.
00:19:33 Applause!
00:19:34 There is something right in life.
00:19:40 Thank you, guys.
00:19:41 He's very fond of her.
00:19:45 He's exactly the opposite of our family.
00:19:47 We are all very quiet.
00:19:50 But I think it's a good change, you know,
00:19:52 because I think we are a very boring family,
00:19:53 all four of us.
00:19:55 But I think he'll bring some life.
00:19:56 In the coming up years, my son, like all sons,
00:20:01 comes to the fan and says, "You know, Dad,
00:20:03 when I grow up, I'm going to be a pilot."
00:20:05 You know what this guy said?
00:20:06 "One day I will marry Deepika Padukone."
00:20:08 If somebody told you that your son is going to marry her one day,
00:20:12 you wouldn't have believed it.
00:20:13 No, if you would have told him, he wouldn't have believed it.
00:20:15 And if you would have told her, she wouldn't have wanted it.
00:20:19 How times change, no?
00:20:20 Yeah, yeah, destiny.
00:20:21 It's all scripted.
00:20:23 It's the most amazing scriptwriter writing the scripts.
00:20:34 DP, Ranveer wants to see you for a minute.
00:20:36 He's waiting at the door.
00:20:37 He does not love me.
00:20:38 You're not allowed to see him.
00:20:39 I love you, baby.
00:20:41 He loves you.
00:20:42 You were attracted to him at this point.
00:20:47 What about him were you attracted to?
00:20:48 I was attracted to the person
00:20:51 that most of the world had not seen.
00:20:55 There's a quiet side to him.
00:20:58 There's a very intelligent side to him.
00:21:00 There's a very sensitive side to him.
00:21:03 I love the fact that he cries.
00:21:05 And I love the fact that he was all heart.
00:21:08 (singing in foreign language)
00:21:12 (singing in foreign language)
00:21:16 (singing in foreign language)
00:21:20 (singing in foreign language)
00:21:24 (singing in foreign language)
00:21:53 When all the ceremonies were done, something changed.
00:21:57 (speaking in foreign language)
00:22:00 Suddenly there's a sense of belonging.
00:22:04 There's a sense of responsibility.
00:22:06 It just makes it really solid.
00:22:09 You feel complete.
00:22:10 You know, you feel complete.
00:22:11 You feel...
00:22:12 Yeah, complete.
00:22:15 That's the right word.
00:22:19 (singing in foreign language)
00:22:24 (crowd cheering)
00:22:27 (singing in foreign language)
00:22:31 (crowd cheering)
00:22:34 (singing in foreign language)
00:22:38 (singing in foreign language)
00:22:42 (singing in foreign language)
00:23:10 (speaking in foreign language)
00:23:13 (laughing)
00:23:16 (speaking in foreign language)
00:23:24 Oh God.
00:23:26 (laughing)
00:23:27 It's a line in my film, you know,
00:23:28 (speaking in foreign language)
00:23:32 (laughing)
00:23:33 And I just feel like, you know, I'm not in a relationship
00:23:38 and I'm kind of single and it just makes me feel like
00:23:43 what I'm losing out on not being in one.
00:23:45 Like, you know, not being in...
00:23:47 Like, you know, you feel like, you know,
00:23:49 you don't have a partner of your own to share,
00:23:52 like, the nothings of your day with, you know?
00:23:54 And every day I wake up and a little part of me
00:23:57 feels that vacuum.
00:23:59 You know, I have my kids and mom,
00:24:00 but like, when I see this and I see you,
00:24:03 and I know relationships are tough,
00:24:05 but like, that soul connection with a person
00:24:10 that you can wake up with, hold their hand,
00:24:14 and, you know, see your day through tough times.
00:24:17 And like, I feel like, I just like,
00:24:20 I don't think I've had a moment like this on my own show,
00:24:23 but like, I feel like I felt so happy for you
00:24:27 and I felt so alone yet, you know?
00:24:29 And I hope this manifests into like,
00:24:35 I hope I have a story to tell.
00:24:36 - It will. - I hope I have a story to tell.
00:24:38 - And really... - Because the happiness and joy
00:24:42 that I saw, and I know it's not easy.
00:24:46 Look, you're a massive motion picture movie star
00:24:48 where the world's gaze is on you
00:24:50 and the world looks at you.
00:24:51 And I know it's tough to even balance this relationship
00:24:54 in a career and in an industry like ours,
00:24:57 but I think you two make it seem like it's pure.
00:25:02 And it seems like it's coming from a place of
00:25:05 truth.
00:25:06 And that's everything.
00:25:08 - Yeah. - Oh, God.
00:25:10 - Oh, I'm going to... - Karan, I want to tell you that
00:25:13 you will, when the time is right,
00:25:16 it'll all fall into place.
00:25:17 And you'd rather, I mean, I think we know a lot of people today
00:25:20 who just rush into marriage and relationships
00:25:23 because of this feeling of like,
00:25:24 "Oh, everyone seems to be moving on."
00:25:26 But the reverse is also true, which is, you know,
00:25:30 there's a lot of people who are just stuck in relationships
00:25:34 and struggling in marriage.
00:25:35 So really it is, if you find, if you know,
00:25:39 you found the right person, only then is it worth it.
00:25:43 Otherwise, you're better off just being...
00:25:45 - On your own. - Being you.
00:25:46 Yeah, that's true.
00:25:47 I feel that.
00:25:48 I feel like I'd rather be single than be attached to a person
00:25:51 that it'll be a tough journey with.
00:25:53 And that brings me to like, ask, like,
00:25:56 does it take a lot of work?
00:25:58 Yeah.
00:25:58 Because as I said, the gaze is on you
00:26:00 and you're in an industry which is full of like, so many people
00:26:04 and you're working with so many attractive people at the same time.
00:26:07 And yet you have to keep your center.
00:26:08 We believe in monogamy.
00:26:10 We believe in fidelity, emotional and sexual.
00:26:13 To keep that energy flowing in an industry,
00:26:15 is it a challenge?
00:26:16 Does it take work?
00:26:18 Of course it's work.
00:26:19 I think any marriage is work.
00:26:21 I think whether you are two actors,
00:26:23 whether you are part of this industry
00:26:26 or outside of this industry, marriage is work.
00:26:30 And it's work every day.
00:26:32 Because at the end of the day,
00:26:34 you have, he's had a different life
00:26:36 and a different upbringing
00:26:37 and I've had a different life and a different upbringing.
00:26:39 And it's about two very different people coming together.
00:26:42 It's not to say we don't have our fights
00:26:45 and we don't have our arguments
00:26:46 and we don't have our bad days.
00:26:48 We do.
00:26:48 But the fact that we choose to power through it together,
00:26:53 the fact that we choose to argue with each other,
00:26:55 the fact that we understand, communicate
00:26:59 and choose to learn from that
00:27:02 or grow from that one experience
00:27:03 or that one argument or that one moment
00:27:06 and then move on is what makes marriage beautiful.
00:27:10 So if anyone is under the impression
00:27:13 that marriage is you wake up every morning
00:27:15 and the sun is shining and someone says,
00:27:17 "Hey baby, your coffee is ready."
00:27:19 That's not what marriage is.
00:27:20 And sure, you might have certain days that are like that,
00:27:23 but marriage is work.
00:27:24 But the work is what makes it beautiful.
00:27:27 Yeah, that's well said.
00:27:29 She couldn't have put it better.
00:27:30 I think everybody also has a gaze on like celebrity couples
00:27:34 and you know, because they feel that everyone,
00:27:37 the pictures do look perfect, right?
00:27:38 But beyond the pictures, there is a life that is real.
00:27:42 There are families and there are issues and there are...
00:27:45 But in an industry such as ours,
00:27:47 you also have an extra baggage of success and failure,
00:27:51 which is made public.
00:27:52 Like our failures are made public on that Friday.
00:27:55 Our successes are made public as well.
00:27:57 Ravneet, what were you feeling like
00:27:58 when you had a patch of like some movies that didn't work?
00:28:02 I went through a lot, especially after Circus.
00:28:05 Actually, it was, let me take you back to the pandemic.
00:28:07 Coming out of the pandemic, we had this lovely film, 83,
00:28:11 which everybody loved.
00:28:12 And also as an actor, it was like,
00:28:14 for me, I felt it was progress that you can feel.
00:28:16 Like as an artist, you can feel that progress
00:28:18 and the evolution, the way you depicted Kapil Devi.
00:28:22 It just released at the wrong time.
00:28:25 48 hours before the release, we lost key markets
00:28:28 because they all shut down due to Omicron.
00:28:30 Yeah.
00:28:30 And unfortunately, a really lovely film
00:28:33 had that stigma of being a commercial underperformer.
00:28:36 Jai Ish Bhai Jodar was again a lovely, well-intentioned film,
00:28:41 which ultimately found its audience on streaming,
00:28:45 which is honestly in the post-pandemic climate,
00:28:48 it's where it belonged in any case.
00:28:51 Circus, I had a limited contribution
00:28:55 and limited responsibility,
00:28:57 so I can't really beat myself up over it.
00:29:00 Having said that, I had not seen three major flops in a row.
00:29:05 Yeah.
00:29:06 So it was new to me.
00:29:07 It was maybe perhaps January, February, March,
00:29:09 after the December of Circus' release,
00:29:12 I was not good.
00:29:14 But then I came to terms with everything that's happening
00:29:18 with me and around me.
00:29:20 And I've been fine.
00:29:22 After everything that's happened,
00:29:23 I've come out of it with more gratitude in my heart
00:29:27 than ever before.
00:29:28 I look at my life, I only see blessings and abundances.
00:29:31 I'm still here doing what I love to do for a living.
00:29:34 I have beautiful friends, family.
00:29:37 I have a touchwood.
00:29:38 I only, I look at my life and I only see blessings.
00:29:42 But do you sometimes feel like
00:29:43 you have to change your core for public image?
00:29:46 Because, you know, suddenly there was fears
00:29:48 and I've done it myself.
00:29:49 I felt like I was going through some kind of a midlife crisis
00:29:51 and wearing some kind of clothes
00:29:53 that were not kind of going with the image
00:29:57 of being a filmmaker or being someone my age.
00:29:59 And everybody was writing that
00:30:01 and I was being trolled for other things as well.
00:30:03 But there was this component that was like,
00:30:05 "What the fuck is he wearing?
00:30:06 And why is he wearing that?"
00:30:08 And then you and I had a chat.
00:30:10 You asked me, "What do you think I should do?"
00:30:11 I said, "Just drop the color."
00:30:13 But I said it because I was doing it myself.
00:30:15 I felt like I needed to kind of sedate myself
00:30:17 with my own sartorial choices.
00:30:20 Did you feel the pressure of that?
00:30:21 That there was A. Ranveer Singh
00:30:23 that was a fashion icon,
00:30:24 completely uninhibited, like unapologetic.
00:30:28 Did you then feel you had to kind of readjust
00:30:30 and rejig that because social image
00:30:33 or audience image is also one thing?
00:30:35 That they believe their lead man should be a certain way?
00:30:39 No, Sikar.
00:30:40 And I listen to just about in this aspect,
00:30:43 in this context and regard as well,
00:30:44 but just about in anything in life.
00:30:46 I take everybody's opinion,
00:30:48 but ultimately I do what I feel like doing.
00:30:50 If I feel like wearing something,
00:30:52 I'll just go with the feeling, you know?
00:30:54 I don't overthink it.
00:30:55 What I feel, I'll do.
00:30:57 In the moment, in that phase.
00:30:58 So I felt like I wanted to not wear those clothes.
00:31:02 I didn't want people to talk about what I'm wearing.
00:31:04 I want you to talk about my films, my acting.
00:31:07 I want you to talk about me.
00:31:08 Perhaps not, "Please get past."
00:31:10 I wanted, I was hoping people would get past
00:31:12 what I'm wearing.
00:31:13 It was Deepika actually who pointed it out to me.
00:31:15 We were having a chat and she was like,
00:31:18 "You know, you're actually,
00:31:19 you come off as this supremely confident person,
00:31:22 but you're actually under-confident."
00:31:24 I was like, "Really?"
00:31:26 She was like, "Yeah, you know what?
00:31:27 You should stop distracting people from who you are
00:31:32 with all these flashy clothes."
00:31:33 And that really resonated with me.
00:31:36 That struck a chord.
00:31:36 Yeah.
00:31:37 And then I went to meet Mr. Bhansali
00:31:39 and I was wearing all black that day
00:31:40 and he was like, "You're looking amazing."
00:31:42 I said, "Oh yeah?"
00:31:44 He was like, "Yeah, you know,
00:31:45 because of the monochrome,
00:31:46 your face is coming out more.
00:31:49 I can see more of you.
00:31:51 You ought to keep this going."
00:31:53 You can see the light in his eyes.
00:31:54 Yeah.
00:31:55 And when he speaks, I always listen.
00:31:58 He was the first one to tell me
00:32:00 I should keep facial hair also.
00:32:02 And then ultimately, he said,
00:32:04 "Do I feel like doing this?"
00:32:05 Yeah, because I remember googling
00:32:08 or being on Wikipedia or something
00:32:09 and there was like,
00:32:10 "Ranveer Singh is one of the highest paid,
00:32:13 most acclaimed Indian actors
00:32:15 who's also known for his flamboyant fashion."
00:32:18 I was like, "When did this
00:32:19 make it to the one-liner of me?"
00:32:21 I don't want, you know?
00:32:24 So, I guess that's what it is,
00:32:27 you know, a sum of all of these things.
00:32:30 By the way, it's a tough thing
00:32:31 because I'm really trying to kind of go sober.
00:32:33 It's a real internal battle with me
00:32:35 because, and not that I'm out there
00:32:38 like as a movie star,
00:32:39 but like because I'm out there a lot
00:32:41 and I was wearing these guys.
00:32:42 One point of time,
00:32:43 I remember seeing those images
00:32:44 and then I realized myself
00:32:46 and I looked at myself,
00:32:47 I'm like, "I'm looking crazy."
00:32:49 And I was like, "Okay, I have to tone down."
00:32:51 Because people are laughing,
00:32:52 that's, they laugh all the time.
00:32:53 They laughed at my sexuality,
00:32:55 they've laughed at other things,
00:32:56 they made fun of me for various reasons,
00:32:58 I've been trolled.
00:32:59 None of that really ever changed my way of life.
00:33:02 But when I thought it myself,
00:33:04 I really felt like, "Oh my God,
00:33:06 what am I doing?"
00:33:08 I mean, no one's telling me
00:33:10 because they're being polite and kind
00:33:11 and are going with me on this journey,
00:33:13 but I'm looking mad.
00:33:15 And that's when I thought,
00:33:16 "Okay, some changes."
00:33:17 I will still, of course, try and be a certain way
00:33:20 when it comes to clothes.
00:33:21 I love it, it's a hobby.
00:33:22 But I decided to change and…
00:33:24 Correct.
00:33:25 I was in shock,
00:33:26 but it didn't last.
00:33:27 I was having fun,
00:33:28 now I'm having fun…
00:33:28 I was in a midlife crisis,
00:33:30 I was succumbing to it.
00:33:31 I was having fun.
00:33:32 You were having fun,
00:33:33 you took off your clothes.
00:33:34 It's a problem if I wear clothes,
00:33:35 it's a problem if I don't.
00:33:37 Okay, forget it.
00:33:37 I mean, I don't know,
00:33:38 what can I do?
00:33:41 Okay, I mean,
00:33:42 before we make it all fun and games,
00:33:44 I also actually…
00:33:44 With you, DP,
00:33:45 you…
00:33:47 I was on a flight with you once,
00:33:48 on a helicopter ride,
00:33:49 where I saw it upfront
00:33:53 when you spoke about your anxiety and depression
00:33:55 and started a foundation.
00:33:57 And thank God for that
00:33:57 because it helps so many people
00:33:59 when a massive celebrity talks about
00:34:02 something so deeply personal.
00:34:03 We were on a helicopter ride,
00:34:05 we were coming out,
00:34:05 it was Shah Rukh's birthday,
00:34:06 we were at Alibaug.
00:34:07 There was DP, me, Farhan, I think,
00:34:10 and I don't remember who else.
00:34:11 We were on this…
00:34:13 And I saw it was a closed helicopter
00:34:15 and I saw it up close
00:34:18 and how she was…
00:34:18 For those 25-30 minutes,
00:34:20 she just had tears dropping off her face
00:34:23 and just crying.
00:34:24 And I remember holding her hand right through.
00:34:27 She just cried
00:34:28 and I looked at her and I was like,
00:34:29 "I don't even know how this feels."
00:34:31 Till it happened to me.
00:34:32 Yeah.
00:34:33 Till it happened to me when…
00:34:35 I think the three tough years
00:34:36 post the pandemic
00:34:38 when there was a whole lot of trolling
00:34:40 and I didn't realize that
00:34:41 I was trying to be tough and resilient
00:34:43 and I was trying to kind of
00:34:45 brush things under the carpet.
00:34:47 The legit attack I had was
00:34:48 at the NMACC launch.
00:34:52 What?
00:34:52 And I remember Varun was staring at me
00:34:55 and I was sweating, I didn't even realize.
00:34:57 Sweating like my face was full of sweat.
00:34:59 He came to me and he held my hand
00:35:00 and he's like, "Are you okay?"
00:35:01 And my hands were shaking.
00:35:02 Karan, we met that night.
00:35:03 Yeah, yeah.
00:35:04 You all were all performing.
00:35:05 So, you know, you all were performing later.
00:35:06 And then he took me to an empty room
00:35:08 and I started breathing like…
00:35:10 Like, I didn't know…
00:35:11 And I first thought,
00:35:12 "Is this like a cardiac arrest?
00:35:14 Is this like…
00:35:14 What am I going through?"
00:35:15 I got out of my jacket,
00:35:17 which was kind of like long and elaborate
00:35:19 and I just left.
00:35:21 Like in half an hour, I went back home
00:35:23 and I just went to my bed and I wept.
00:35:26 I just cried and I didn't know why I was crying.
00:35:28 I called my psychologist the next day
00:35:32 who I've known and dealt with before
00:35:34 and I asked her, I was like, "What do I do?
00:35:37 I'm just going through a tough time
00:35:39 and I also have a film release coming up
00:35:41 and I'm just feeling like…"
00:35:43 And of course, we chatted about it
00:35:45 and then she put me on medication,
00:35:47 which I'm still on.
00:35:48 My mom's going to see this.
00:35:51 Oh, fuck.
00:35:51 But like, I'm okay.
00:35:54 I'm okay.
00:35:54 But like, you've been through this
00:35:56 and I'm sure you're stronger today for it.
00:35:58 And actually, the question, Ranveer, is like,
00:36:01 how did you have…
00:36:02 Because I've had to kind of deal with it on my own.
00:36:04 Yeah.
00:36:04 Did you have to kind of like step in
00:36:07 and be just a silent force?
00:36:09 Because nobody can really understand truly, right?
00:36:12 Yeah.
00:36:13 Yeah, I mean, it happened to me in 2014.
00:36:18 The first time I realized…
00:36:21 And, you know, I'm sure you realize that
00:36:24 initially it takes you several months
00:36:27 and in fact, my heart breaks for people
00:36:30 who till date struggle
00:36:31 and still don't know what they're going through.
00:36:34 And that's why the more we speak about
00:36:36 how we feel and our symptoms, etc.
00:36:38 Hopefully, that's why I came out in 2014
00:36:41 and I shared my experience of
00:36:43 just breaking it down and saying,
00:36:44 this is exactly what I was feeling like
00:36:47 for a prolonged period of time.
00:36:48 Because the intention was,
00:36:50 if there was even one person
00:36:52 who heard, you know, this interview
00:36:55 or what I was saying and identified and said,
00:36:56 oh my God, this is exactly what I'm going through.
00:36:58 Then at least I'm able to help or save one life.
00:37:02 So that's how it started.
00:37:05 But yeah, 2014, so it's been almost 10 years,
00:37:09 you know, since I've been on medication.
00:37:12 It's work every day
00:37:13 because you don't want to go back into that space again.
00:37:17 And I think that what he did for me really was,
00:37:19 I don't think even…
00:37:21 I think he understands mental illness today
00:37:23 slightly better than he did back then.
00:37:25 But I think the fact that he created a safe space for me
00:37:29 to be able to be vulnerable,
00:37:33 to be able to share,
00:37:34 to be able to communicate.
00:37:35 Because a lot of times you're just feeling so many things,
00:37:38 but you don't know how to articulate it.
00:37:40 Like you said, you're just breaking down.
00:37:41 You don't know what…
00:37:43 But the fact that he never said,
00:37:44 you know, not once did he say,
00:37:46 it's okay now, come on, you know,
00:37:48 it's fine, don't be like this.
00:37:50 And come on, let's play some music, it'll be okay.
00:37:52 Or let's go out for a drive.
00:37:54 It was never that.
00:37:55 He didn't say that.
00:37:56 He never said that.
00:37:57 And those are the red flags.
00:37:58 Those are absolutely the red flags.
00:37:59 Because the worst thing is when people say,
00:38:01 - when someone says, it's fine. - You know, call a friend,
00:38:02 - it'll be okay. - Oh my God.
00:38:03 Talk about it, go for a drive.
00:38:04 And he didn't know better.
00:38:06 He's never, you know, he's learned over a period of time
00:38:08 how to be a caregiver.
00:38:10 But in that moment,
00:38:11 and we were all going through it for the first time,
00:38:13 it told me a lot about the person that he is,
00:38:15 which is whether it was mental illness
00:38:17 or something else,
00:38:19 or anybody else for that matter,
00:38:20 he is that person who just creates that safe space for you,
00:38:24 where you can just be.
00:38:26 And…
00:38:27 Model husband.
00:38:28 But yeah, I remember,
00:38:31 like she said, it took a long time
00:38:34 and a lot for me to understand it.
00:38:37 Having said that,
00:38:38 what I would like to share
00:38:40 is that it'll come down to your intent as a partner.
00:38:44 Yeah.
00:38:45 If your intention is to protect,
00:38:48 to give healing,
00:38:50 to support,
00:38:51 to help,
00:38:51 to give that security,
00:38:55 and to help this person navigate it,
00:38:58 to be there for them,
00:38:59 you can navigate just about anything in life,
00:39:01 be it this illness or anything else.
00:39:03 When it first happened,
00:39:05 in 2014, I was shooting
00:39:08 and she called
00:39:09 and she said,
00:39:10 "I've had a blackout and I've had a fall.
00:39:14 Can you come home?"
00:39:15 And it literally, it was like, "I'm coming."
00:39:18 I literally cut the call and I was on my bike.
00:39:20 Like I was just out of there.
00:39:21 And then when I went and I saw her,
00:39:23 something wasn't right.
00:39:25 She wasn't all there.
00:39:26 You know, she's with you.
00:39:27 She's in front of you.
00:39:28 She's looking at you.
00:39:30 But she's not all there.
00:39:31 And I remember this one, I'll never forget.
00:39:34 When I knew this is a very serious problem,
00:39:36 it was one day at breakfast,
00:39:37 she was sitting across me and she was just crying.
00:39:39 And there was just tears, copious tears flowing down.
00:39:43 And at a human level,
00:39:46 the most basic question is, "What happened, baby?"
00:39:49 Yeah.
00:39:50 And she also doesn't know what to say to you.
00:39:52 She's like, "I don't know."
00:39:54 And she's, I can feel it like,
00:39:57 like I got up and I went to her side.
00:39:59 I was like, "Tell me, baby. What happened?
00:40:00 What should I do?"
00:40:01 Like, it wasn't that…
00:40:04 The reason I remember that vividly is because
00:40:05 it was that moment where I felt completely helpless.
00:40:08 - Helpless, yeah.
00:40:09 - I was like, "I don't know what to do."
00:40:12 I don't know how to deal with this.
00:40:14 I'd consult with my parents.
00:40:16 And that's when I think I called Ujjla in Bangalore.
00:40:19 I called and I said, "Amma, I think you should come."
00:40:22 And then Amma, Appa and Anisha came.
00:40:26 And whilst they were around,
00:40:29 in the days that they were around, she was fine.
00:40:32 But then it was time for them to…
00:40:35 - Yeah, I didn't know.
00:40:37 - Go back to Bangalore.
00:40:38 - Yeah, I don't know.
00:40:38 I can't remember.
00:40:39 I don't know if they had come for something else
00:40:41 or he had called them and I wasn't aware.
00:40:42 But for whatever reason, the three of them had landed up in Bombay
00:40:45 and they were doing…
00:40:46 They were there for something.
00:40:47 And I've always had this thing because I moved.
00:40:50 When I was 18, I moved to Bombay.
00:40:52 And I've lived alone for most of all of those years
00:40:57 when I moved to Bombay.
00:40:58 So my default is to always put on a strong, brave front
00:41:02 that everything is okay
00:41:03 because I always worry that they will worry.
00:41:06 And so the same thing happened when they came to visit
00:41:10 and laughing and putting on this thing
00:41:13 like everything's okay.
00:41:14 And it was on the last day when they were packing
00:41:18 and the same thing happened.
00:41:20 I was sitting on the bed and watching them pack
00:41:22 and getting ready to leave for the airport
00:41:24 and I just started…
00:41:26 I broke down.
00:41:27 I started crying.
00:41:28 And she said, "What happened?"
00:41:30 And I said, "I don't know.
00:41:31 I've just been feeling helpless.
00:41:34 I just sit there, feel helpless.
00:41:37 I don't know what to do.
00:41:38 I don't feel like living anymore.
00:41:40 And I don't know what to do.
00:41:40 I don't know whether it's just a mother being a mother
00:41:44 or whether it was her…
00:41:45 She's red or she's interacted with people.
00:41:50 She just knew that I needed professional help.
00:41:53 And I was struggling with this for a while on my own.
00:41:57 I'd go…
00:41:58 I was shooting for a movie at that time.
00:42:00 I'd go for events and put up…
00:42:02 have to put up this front and do chat shows
00:42:04 and like have all of these conversations and interviews
00:42:06 and really put myself out there
00:42:08 where internally I was just empty.
00:42:10 So the fact that I needed professional help,
00:42:11 she identified it.
00:42:12 We immediately called someone who we knew.
00:42:14 Now all of that is just luck.
00:42:16 The fact that I've grown up with someone,
00:42:18 I know when we called, she answered the phone.
00:42:21 In my voice, she could tell that I needed help.
00:42:23 She was…
00:42:24 All of this now in retrospect was just a blessing.
00:42:27 Yeah.
00:42:27 You know, how many people today know a professional
00:42:30 that they can call?
00:42:31 Right?
00:42:32 Most often you're struggling to even identify
00:42:34 what you're dealing with.
00:42:35 But once you've identified…
00:42:35 Acknowledging it is the first stage.
00:42:37 Exactly.
00:42:38 First of all, acknowledging…
00:42:39 First of all, realizing that it could be mental or emotional.
00:42:43 Then accepting it and saying,
00:42:45 "Yes, okay, it could be this."
00:42:46 Then saying, "Okay, there is no stigma.
00:42:48 Now I need to seek help."
00:42:50 Then finding that person and doing all of those things.
00:42:53 So it was that entire journey.
00:42:55 But I think the fact that he didn't understand it then,
00:42:59 but the fact that he was extremely patient
00:43:01 is what I remember.
00:43:03 He was just really…
00:43:04 He was just there.
00:43:05 You know, he was just there.
00:43:06 He was just patient.
00:43:07 And yeah, so he understands.
00:43:10 I think today, even today he understands.
00:43:12 If I say I need to…
00:43:13 If I need to go to bed,
00:43:15 it comes from a place of my body and mind needing it.
00:43:19 Yeah.
00:43:19 You know, if I can't do certain things
00:43:21 or if I function in a certain way,
00:43:23 which sometimes he might feel is too hard
00:43:26 or too structured or too disciplined.
00:43:29 It's that…
00:43:29 I need to do all of those things
00:43:31 to be able to function on a daily basis.
00:43:33 Oh, okay.
00:43:38 I think that was much needed for me to hear.
00:43:41 And I'm sure…
00:43:42 And Karan, I'm always, always here.
00:43:45 I know that.
00:43:46 I know that I can pick up the phone.
00:43:48 It's just that some moments you just like…
00:43:50 You feel like you can deal with it on your own.
00:43:53 And I have.
00:43:54 I mean, I seek professional help and that's fine.
00:43:57 All right. Okay.
00:43:58 I hate to kind of break the flow of this,
00:44:01 but like, because eventually we are on Coffee with Karan.
00:44:04 Yeah.
00:44:05 And I don't want to be an imposter to this conversation,
00:44:07 but there is a kind of a fun imposter kind of game
00:44:10 that I'd like to play.
00:44:12 And I know it's a total segue from what we've been saying,
00:44:14 but I think the only way to break it is this break it.
00:44:16 Sure. Let's do it.
00:44:17 Why is there a game now?
00:44:18 First there's a rapid fire, then there's a game.
00:44:21 Rapid fire is the end now.
00:44:22 Go with the flow.
00:44:23 What is happening in the world?
00:44:25 Karan is wearing black clothes.
00:44:27 The game is coming first, rapid fire is coming later.
00:44:29 What is happening?
00:44:30 What is happening?
00:44:31 Firstly, this Rocky has not left me, Karan.
00:44:33 I made the grave mistake of re-watching the film post-release
00:44:37 and now I'm back in character.
00:44:38 So, can we…
00:44:38 Why don't you just talk like Rocky now?
00:44:40 From now onwards.
00:44:41 Hi, babes.
00:44:42 You can talk like Rocky.
00:44:44 Love you from last life.
00:44:45 And all credit to my wife and the patience she has shown over the years.
00:44:55 Every six to eight months, she has to…
00:44:57 A new character to deal with.
00:44:57 She has a new character to deal with.
00:44:59 But this is good, right?
00:45:01 Baby, every six to eight months…
00:45:02 And just when I'm getting used to this person,
00:45:06 it becomes another person.
00:45:07 She also… There are some ground rules.
00:45:09 I have to inform her about my haircuts and my drastic change in look beforehand
00:45:17 so that it doesn't come as a rude shock.
00:45:19 Because he leaves home in the morning as one person
00:45:22 and he comes back and he opens…
00:45:24 "Baby!"
00:45:25 And I'm like, "Who's…"
00:45:27 Wait, wait.
00:45:27 I remember she was also…
00:45:28 One second.
00:45:29 You went as this.
00:45:30 Now you are…
00:45:31 Now you are who?
00:45:32 So, when I'm not home at dinner time, she watches stuff.
00:45:35 So, she's eating and watching and I enter.
00:45:38 And she was like, "Whoa, whoa, hey!"
00:45:40 So, I have to pause and stop and do everything.
00:45:42 So, now I have to give warning.
00:45:43 Is this a man?
00:45:44 Of course.
00:45:45 This is my new character.
00:45:46 I just missed it.
00:45:47 I forgot to inform her.
00:45:49 Lo and behold, she's out of town.
00:45:51 I FaceTime her.
00:45:51 She's like, "Oh!
00:45:52 Some kind of warning would have been nice, baby."
00:45:55 Yeah, because when he was…
00:45:57 Welcome back, Inspector Samira.
00:45:58 I don't know about the other characters because I'm not married to him.
00:46:01 Do we have, as you said, some fun midnight chats?
00:46:04 But when he was Rocky, he was Rocky right through.
00:46:07 He was speaking like that on set.
00:46:09 Like to everybody.
00:46:10 Yeah, but when he was Kapil Dev,
00:46:11 I was having dinner with Kapil Dev every night.
00:46:13 But anyway.
00:46:16 Okay, so the imposter game.
00:46:18 It's called the Imposter Challenge.
00:46:20 The word says it all.
00:46:21 I'll never be an imposter in your life.
00:46:24 Don't worry.
00:46:25 We all get three headphones, right?
00:46:28 Okay.
00:46:28 And then from this, we choose a chit.
00:46:32 Okay.
00:46:32 All three headphones will have songs playing, of course.
00:46:36 One of us will open a chit and it will say, "You are the imposter."
00:46:39 Okay.
00:46:40 You, therefore, will have another song.
00:46:42 But you can't be caught.
00:46:43 So you have to behave like you actually have the same song as the other two.
00:46:47 Now this is…
00:46:48 Come and be stand-up, please.
00:46:49 Okay.
00:46:50 Now whoever is the imposter, please don't show it on your face.
00:46:53 Maybe I can hear, right?
00:46:54 "So sing it, not throw your hands on me."
00:46:57 "Hey!"
00:46:58 "This is for the only."
00:47:00 I just started this song.
00:47:01 "Uh-huh."
00:47:01 "Uh-huh."
00:47:04 "For this, go devane."
00:47:08 "Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah."
00:47:18 "Uh-huh."
00:47:19 "Yeah!"
00:47:20 "Uh-huh."
00:47:22 "Oh!"
00:47:22 "There's something about the night."
00:47:24 "Something very special."
00:47:33 "Go devane."
00:47:35 "Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah."
00:47:36 He's the imposter.
00:47:37 He's the imposter.
00:47:39 He's the imposter.
00:47:40 He's the imposter.
00:47:40 "Tum honge imposter."
00:47:42 "Tum honge imposter."
00:47:43 You're the imposter.
00:47:43 "Pakhandi ho tum."
00:47:45 You're the imposter.
00:47:45 No, you're the imposter.
00:47:46 No, no. How? Why?
00:47:47 Because you are the imposter.
00:47:48 Now the game is over now.
00:47:49 We have to say who the imposter is.
00:47:50 "Acha?"
00:47:51 What was playing in your ears?
00:47:52 I can't tell you that, but…
00:47:53 I am not the imposter.
00:47:55 You are the imposter.
00:47:55 No!
00:47:56 You are the imposter, Karan.
00:47:58 How can I be the imposter?
00:48:00 So now we have to show the chit, right?
00:48:01 You are the imposter.
00:48:02 Show us your chit.
00:48:03 So I have to show now?
00:48:04 Because now we have…
00:48:05 What is your hair?
00:48:06 The disco song.
00:48:07 The disco song.
00:48:10 Which means Karan is the imposter.
00:48:12 I had "Kabhi khushi kabhi gham."
00:48:14 I had to dance like that.
00:48:15 Like that.
00:48:16 So you were just vibing out from what we were doing?
00:48:21 Yeah.
00:48:21 You were doing all this on "Kabhi khushi kabhi gham."
00:48:23 And Lata ji's "Kabhi khushi kabhi gham."
00:48:25 Oh my God.
00:48:26 Okay, we'll have to try this again.
00:48:27 Okay, pick any colour.
00:48:28 [Music]
00:48:55 I think he's the imposter again.
00:48:56 [Music]
00:49:18 Both of you are wrong.
00:49:20 You are the imposter.
00:49:21 Nope.
00:49:22 You are the imposter.
00:49:23 I am not.
00:49:23 I am not.
00:49:24 I think one of you is the imposter.
00:49:27 We both think you are the imposter.
00:49:28 You are the imposter.
00:49:29 Because you are not doing any dance.
00:49:30 And if I'm not then?
00:49:32 I mean then we can't do anything.
00:49:33 But you definitely were doing nothing.
00:49:35 So you are the imposter.
00:49:36 I'm not the imposter.
00:49:38 So what's your chit?
00:49:39 Both of you think I'm the imposter.
00:49:40 And what if I'm not?
00:49:41 You're taking me out to dinner.
00:49:43 Okay.
00:49:43 Oh.
00:49:47 You are the imposter.
00:49:48 Oh f**k.
00:49:50 Am I just not?
00:49:51 I had also "Halkat jawari do hookstay."
00:49:53 I had… Yeah, you were…
00:49:55 I was doing something like that.
00:49:56 But you were also copying the steps.
00:49:58 No, I knew he was the imposter.
00:49:59 I didn't know.
00:50:00 Yeah.
00:50:01 You knew?
00:50:01 I didn't know. I got fooled.
00:50:02 But why didn't I say it?
00:50:04 Because I saw…
00:50:05 Because he started doing the steps.
00:50:06 So I knew that we had the same song.
00:50:08 Master of deception and the dark arts.
00:50:10 Yeah.
00:50:10 Okay, that was fun.
00:50:11 Let's sit.
00:50:12 So funny.
00:50:13 I should have said it.
00:50:14 Oh, you really fooled us, Ranveer.
00:50:16 There you go, bro.
00:50:17 I'm telling you.
00:50:17 This is that part where, Ranveer,
00:50:19 I'll have to ask you to go to your side.
00:50:21 Okay.
00:50:22 Go to side.
00:50:22 Because it's rapid fire time.
00:50:25 Okay.
00:50:26 And it's war.
00:50:26 It's Deepika versus Ranveer.
00:50:29 When it's versus, there's a distance.
00:50:31 I've already lost.
00:50:32 Oh, man.
00:50:34 What, baby?
00:50:35 You want to compete with me?
00:50:37 You want to compete with me?
00:50:38 For this package?
00:50:39 Okay.
00:50:40 I'm your package.
00:50:41 Please don't say these vulgar things.
00:50:43 I'm going to use my new Google Pixel 8 Pro
00:50:47 to ask you questions on rapid fire.
00:50:50 Are you ready?
00:50:50 Yeah.
00:50:51 Start with him, bro.
00:50:52 To start our rapid fire,
00:50:53 I'll have to turn on the Jackua lights.
00:50:55 Oh, wow.
00:50:57 Ranveer Singh, as you know,
00:50:58 we have a live audience that is going to vote for you.
00:51:01 Can we meet them?
00:51:02 This is in the Jackua lounge.
00:51:04 Jackua lounge?
00:51:06 Wow.
00:51:07 Hi.
00:51:08 Fancy lounge.
00:51:10 Nice to meet you, man.
00:51:12 Nice to meet you, man.
00:51:13 Don't...
00:51:14 Don't mind...
00:51:16 I always get them on my side.
00:51:17 Don't mind your...
00:51:18 Your voting base.
00:51:20 Like this.
00:51:20 Yeah.
00:51:20 Not fair.
00:51:21 But we're starting.
00:51:22 So guys, are you all set
00:51:23 for the rapid fire between husband and wife?
00:51:25 Yes.
00:51:27 Alright, great.
00:51:28 Hey.
00:51:30 Come here.
00:51:30 Come here.
00:51:32 I just stopped it.
00:51:32 What is he...
00:51:33 Okay, go.
00:51:34 I'm ready.
00:51:34 He's being...
00:51:35 He's being salesman.
00:51:36 Okay.
00:51:37 Ranveer Singh, are you ready?
00:51:38 Born ready.
00:51:39 Ranveer Singh's secret sauce to staying relevant is...
00:51:42 Is it really important to be relevant?
00:51:45 Like, it's irrelevant.
00:51:46 Relevance is irrelevant.
00:51:48 As long as...
00:51:49 Poetry.
00:51:49 ...kind and compassionate,
00:51:51 then you will be relevant to society and to the world.
00:51:53 I taught you so well.
00:51:54 Wow.
00:51:55 I taught you well.
00:51:57 Don't mess with my head.
00:51:58 If you had to record an automated message
00:52:01 for people who think you aren't the right fit for Don 3,
00:52:04 what would you say?
00:52:05 Give me a chance.
00:52:06 I've done a decent job in 12-13 years.
00:52:09 I deserve a chance.
00:52:11 Of course.
00:52:12 The most challenging part about being in a relationship
00:52:15 with another actor?
00:52:16 Now, if you're in a relationship with a relevant actor,
00:52:20 then you're both relevant,
00:52:22 then the challenge,
00:52:25 the main challenge is making time.
00:52:28 The harshest thing a director has told you?
00:52:30 I remember when I was trying to make it in theatre,
00:52:32 there was a theatre director,
00:52:34 a lady,
00:52:35 and I was very traumatized by that
00:52:38 because she had taken my pants off
00:52:40 in front of the whole class
00:52:41 when I was on stage.
00:52:42 There was...
00:52:43 Richa Chadda was there.
00:52:45 Nakul Mehta, Pooja Saru, Megha Burman,
00:52:49 all of these actors,
00:52:50 and I was on stage and she was like,
00:52:51 "Get off my stage!
00:52:52 What are these choices you're making?
00:52:53 You're an eyesore!
00:52:54 You know what?
00:52:55 You belong in Bollywood!"
00:52:56 And...
00:52:57 Yes, ma'am, and thank you.
00:52:58 Yeah, so I took that criticism as an affirmation
00:53:02 and here I am.
00:53:03 Which actor do you consider as body goals?
00:53:06 Meet my wife.
00:53:07 Well, okay.
00:53:08 Yeah.
00:53:08 Like, what are these proportions, bro?
00:53:11 There, he's won the hamper now.
00:53:15 No.
00:53:15 One industry lesson that you learnt the hard way?
00:53:19 The idea, the notion of
00:53:20 Friday to Friday life.
00:53:22 Friday to Friday...
00:53:24 Like a Friday can change everything,
00:53:26 make everything break something.
00:53:28 Yeah.
00:53:28 Okay, who gets their thirst trap posts
00:53:30 right on social media, according to you?
00:53:32 In a love triangle featuring you and Deepika,
00:53:38 which male actor would you not mind being cast
00:53:40 to be the third character?
00:53:41 Ranbir.
00:53:42 You wanted to make Sangam, no?
00:53:44 With the three of us.
00:53:44 Then what happened?
00:53:45 You're just making up things.
00:53:46 You're Karan Johar.
00:53:46 I don't make anything.
00:53:47 I'll make violent action.
00:53:48 I'll make violent action with you.
00:53:50 You'll make my...
00:53:50 I can still make Sangam.
00:53:51 Really?
00:53:52 It's a find.
00:53:53 Done?
00:53:53 Done.
00:53:54 You know you wanted to make Sangam.
00:53:55 Yeah, of course.
00:53:55 I'm dying to.
00:53:56 Of course.
00:53:57 Ever got turned on by looking at your own hot selfie?
00:53:59 I mean, is that even a question?
00:54:04 Guys, I'm vain but I'm not narcissistic, okay?
00:54:07 You take it...
00:54:08 How can I get turned on seeing my own selfie?
00:54:11 You...
00:54:12 Wow, man. I'm looking so hot.
00:54:13 Okay.
00:54:15 Look at the hair on my side.
00:54:18 If your conscience could talk to you like mine recently did,
00:54:21 what would it say?
00:54:22 "Bhai, kuch toh sharam kar le."
00:54:24 I can't top this yet.
00:54:28 Okay. Which actor does Deepika look best with on screen?
00:54:31 No, not you.
00:54:32 What do you mean?
00:54:33 No, someone else.
00:54:34 Shah Rukh Khan.
00:54:36 Okay. AI is all about the right keywords.
00:54:39 Which three keywords would you use to create an exact AI replica of Alia Bhatt?
00:54:44 A cat.
00:54:44 A white cat.
00:54:46 Okay.
00:54:47 Casper the friendly ghost.
00:54:49 Do you think AI will get it if I type "sakhi"?
00:54:51 Yeah.
00:54:52 He'll get it. It's AI.
00:54:53 She's your "sakhi".
00:54:54 Yeah.
00:54:54 Alright. Deepika Padukone. Three words.
00:54:56 Deepika Padukone. Let's see.
00:54:58 Exact AI replica.
00:55:00 First of all, whether it's AI or BIO,
00:55:03 it can never be a replica of her, boss.
00:55:05 That's fine.
00:55:06 Should I tell you this much?
00:55:07 Yeah.
00:55:08 No matter how much you try, it's AI.
00:55:09 But for the sake of the hamper,
00:55:12 Sunshine,
00:55:14 Tweety Bird,
00:55:16 and Pebbles Flintstone.
00:55:18 Okay. Alright.
00:55:20 The most cryptic name in your contacts.
00:55:22 I don't know cryptic name.
00:55:23 I put first name, last name, nickname, designation.
00:55:27 Everything.
00:55:28 Everything.
00:55:28 Everything. Okay.
00:55:29 Karan the Gudda Johar dash director.
00:55:32 Like that.
00:55:34 This is my name on your phone?
00:55:35 Everything. I put everything.
00:55:36 Okay.
00:55:37 Gudda.
00:55:37 She has two names now.
00:55:39 She used to have one.
00:55:40 Now she has two.
00:55:41 What is your go-to dance move at a party?
00:55:44 Hip thrust.
00:55:46 Yeah, it's the go-to.
00:55:47 Just give him the hamper.
00:55:48 Okay.
00:55:49 I'm leaving.
00:55:50 If you had to recreate Dola Re Dola
00:55:53 from Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kani
00:55:54 with a male contemporary of yours,
00:55:56 who would you pick?
00:55:56 Ranbir.
00:55:58 Very good.
00:55:59 Thank you. That was your rapid fire.
00:56:01 Well done.
00:56:01 Deepika, on to you.
00:56:04 Oh God.
00:56:04 Okay.
00:56:05 Deepika Padukone,
00:56:10 your very first question.
00:56:11 Do you think you're the best actress in Bollywood today?
00:56:13 Yep.
00:56:14 Okay then.
00:56:15 What's a misconception people have about Deepika?
00:56:17 That I'm stoppable.
00:56:19 Oh wow.
00:56:20 What's the one thing Deepika Padukone has
00:56:22 that no one else in the industry does?
00:56:25 My sauce.
00:56:26 Your sauce.
00:56:26 Which is?
00:56:28 I think it's the way I approach everything that I do.
00:56:31 And I owe it to my upbringing
00:56:34 and I owe it to my...
00:56:35 the fact that I was an athlete
00:56:37 before I became an actor.
00:56:39 Right.
00:56:39 I think that for me is a huge differentiator.
00:56:42 All right.
00:56:43 Besides Ranbir,
00:56:44 who do you think you have the best on-screen chemistry with?
00:56:47 The truth is,
00:56:47 I think I have good chemistry with a lot of people.
00:56:50 It goes without saying that Ranbir and I have amazing chemistry
00:56:53 which is why we're even on this couch.
00:56:55 But...
00:56:55 Shah Rukh.
00:56:58 Shah Rukh.
00:56:58 Ranbir.
00:56:59 I had amazing chemistry with Irrfan.
00:57:02 Yeah.
00:57:02 I think I have amazing chemistry with Hrithik
00:57:05 which everyone's going to see in Jammu and Kerala.
00:57:07 Yes, can't wait.
00:57:07 Can't wait.
00:57:08 Can't wait, guys.
00:57:09 Can't wait for Fyder.
00:57:12 Yeah.
00:57:13 So I think that...
00:57:14 Republic Day.
00:57:15 So yeah, I mean...
00:57:15 2024.
00:57:16 Aye!
00:57:17 It's going to be amazing.
00:57:18 I have good chemistry with a lot of people.
00:57:21 Okay, great.
00:57:21 Can't wait to see it, guys.
00:57:22 A Ranbir Singh movie you would have loved...
00:57:26 I'm going to make fun of my friend, okay?
00:57:27 A Ranbir Singh movie you would have loved to have been his leading lady in...
00:57:31 Band Baja, Gully Boy, Rocky and Rani.
00:57:33 All three.
00:57:34 All three.
00:57:35 Yeah.
00:57:36 Okay.
00:57:36 The one thing you and Ranbir agree to disagree on.
00:57:39 His fashion choices, sometimes.
00:57:42 Okay.
00:57:42 One thing...
00:57:43 Most Bollywood actresses lie about.
00:57:45 And actors.
00:57:46 The jobs they do.
00:57:48 Okay.
00:57:48 Alright.
00:57:49 For finish the following sentences...
00:57:51 A good husband is someone who...
00:57:52 Who can be emotionally available.
00:57:55 The easiest way to win over a sulking Ranbir is...
00:57:58 Give him love.
00:58:00 Give him what?
00:58:01 Love.
00:58:01 Give him love.
00:58:02 Okay.
00:58:02 Okay.
00:58:03 What will you do?
00:58:04 How will you do?
00:58:04 Show?
00:58:05 Oh, yes.
00:58:06 He just needs this.
00:58:07 He needs this.
00:58:08 And this.
00:58:11 And that.
00:58:12 And this.
00:58:12 Yeah.
00:58:13 Later.
00:58:13 Later, later.
00:58:14 But you get the drift.
00:58:15 Yes.
00:58:16 Okay.
00:58:16 If you choose to renew your vows on your 10th anniversary...
00:58:20 Name three vows you would add to the existing list.
00:58:22 It wouldn't be three.
00:58:23 It would just be one.
00:58:24 And it would be...
00:58:25 Just keep doing more of what we've been doing.
00:58:28 Great.
00:58:28 How does Ranbir wake you up in the morning?
00:58:31 With love.
00:58:31 With lots of love.
00:58:32 If you would be a fly on the wall in any celebrity's house...
00:58:35 Who would it be and why?
00:58:36 Roger Federer.
00:58:38 Roger Federer and why?
00:58:40 Because I...
00:58:41 I take inspiration from athletes and he's...
00:58:43 Like, I'm hugely inspired by him on and off the court.
00:58:48 Would you ever date Rocky Randhawa?
00:58:51 Presuming you're not married to Ranbir Singh who played Rocky Randhawa.
00:58:54 The character.
00:58:54 Would you ever date?
00:58:55 I am married to Rocky Randhawa.
00:58:56 But if you weren't the character, would you date him?
00:59:00 Yeah.
00:59:01 All heart.
00:59:02 And cleavage.
00:59:02 What...
00:59:03 What more does a girl want?
00:59:07 You want someone who just, you know, wears his heart on his sleeve and...
00:59:11 Right.
00:59:11 Uh, yeah.
00:59:12 So the character or otherwise, I have Rocky Randhawa for...
00:59:15 For life.
00:59:16 You know, Karan, when she watched the movie, she said this character is closest to...
00:59:22 All of the characters that he's played, yeah.
00:59:25 Yeah.
00:59:26 All right.
00:59:26 Right before getting married, you said on this couch,
00:59:28 "You love Ranbir's emotional quotient, hate his lifestyle, sleep cycle, etc.
00:59:32 and tolerate his fashion sense."
00:59:34 After five years of marriage, which of these answers have changed?
00:59:37 Excuse.
00:59:38 Pause.
00:59:39 What?
00:59:41 Say it again.
00:59:41 Say it again.
00:59:42 Are you hearing this for the first time?
00:59:43 I would like to hear it one more time.
00:59:47 I asked her, "What do you love about him?
00:59:48 What do you hate about him?
00:59:49 And what do you tolerate about him?"
00:59:51 She said, "I love Ranbir's emotional quotient."
00:59:53 Okay, so while you're asking that, I'm answering.
00:59:56 So ask me again.
00:59:56 Say that again.
00:59:57 You love his emotional quotient.
00:59:59 Stays the same.
00:59:59 I love his emotional quotient.
01:00:00 You hate his lifestyle, sleep cycle, etc.
01:00:02 Which I don't hate anymore because it's gotten better.
01:00:05 So now I tolerate that.
01:00:06 And you tolerate his fashion sense.
01:00:09 And now I continue to tolerate his fashion sense.
01:00:12 What?
01:00:13 What else?
01:00:14 It's gotten better.
01:00:16 I'm wearing all black.
01:00:18 It can't be more than this, Ranbir.
01:00:19 It can't be more than this.
01:00:20 Don't change it anymore.
01:00:20 I'm going back to it.
01:00:22 It will become unrecognizable.
01:00:23 Really, man.
01:00:24 Maximalist expression.
01:00:25 I'm just going to go back to it.
01:00:28 So which one has changed?
01:00:30 What has changed is the lifestyle has...
01:00:33 The lifestyle has changed.
01:00:34 From hate, it's moved upwards.
01:00:37 Well, that was amazing.
01:00:39 Ranbir Singh versus Deepika Padukone.
01:00:42 Let's see what the public has to say.
01:00:46 Give it.
01:00:46 Who wins?
01:00:47 They're voting right now as we speak.
01:00:49 Okay.
01:00:59 And the results are here.
01:01:01 Oh, oh my God.
01:01:03 What's going on here?
01:01:03 What?
01:01:04 What?
01:01:04 This is cheating.
01:01:10 That means...
01:01:11 This is fraudulence.
01:01:13 One second.
01:01:13 That means I've said some things that I should be worried about.
01:01:16 No, you didn't say anything.
01:01:17 Because I don't want to win the ad.
01:01:19 One minute.
01:01:20 Look at the...
01:01:21 Please.
01:01:22 I'm going to get into trouble.
01:01:22 Pan camera to expression of sheer fear.
01:01:27 And one minute.
01:01:28 This is like losing by a margin, Ranbir.
01:01:30 It wasn't even...
01:01:32 I mean, I'm really happy I won.
01:01:33 But I'm also...
01:01:34 I have butterflies in my stomach.
01:01:35 You should institute a system like KPMG.
01:01:38 This is cheating in the vote count.
01:01:40 That's not true at all.
01:01:42 These are very trustworthy...
01:01:45 All the people who voted for Deepika, hands up, please.
01:01:48 Yeah.
01:01:49 Sorry, Ranbir.
01:01:53 But Deepika, congratulations.
01:01:55 Thanks.
01:01:56 The very first episode of season eight.
01:01:58 You're the first rapid fire winner.
01:02:01 Recipient.
01:02:01 Meanwhile, you might have to pacify what's on your right.
01:02:04 Karan, but I'm genuinely nervous
01:02:07 because it's been many years.
01:02:09 Decades.
01:02:10 Or probably not even.
01:02:12 I don't...
01:02:13 I've probably never won the hamper.
01:02:15 I don't remember.
01:02:16 Yeah, even I don't remember.
01:02:17 But one minute, we are not yet...
01:02:19 You're not...
01:02:19 Oh, not yet?
01:02:20 You're not registering the shock on the...
01:02:23 Jo mera, wo tera.
01:02:24 Jo tera, wo mera.
01:02:25 Wait.
01:02:27 Okay.
01:02:30 This will help.
01:02:31 Okay.
01:02:32 Have you dealt with it?
01:02:37 It helps, but it'll take a lot more.
01:02:39 All right.
01:02:42 Oh my God.
01:02:43 This was like really hilarious.
01:02:45 It was great.
01:02:46 A shocking upset.
01:02:48 A shocking upset, really.
01:02:49 73-27.
01:02:51 What does that mean?
01:02:52 It means you've lost very badly.
01:02:53 Sometimes it happens to me.
01:02:55 I feel like I'm going to win awards.
01:02:57 If someone else wins, I'm in shock.
01:02:59 Has that ever happened?
01:03:00 It has.
01:03:01 Okay.
01:03:04 When I saw you go across there
01:03:06 and give him that love
01:03:08 and I saw him there,
01:03:10 there's one question that I have.
01:03:11 Whenever you all pose for the paparazzi,
01:03:13 there is always something he whispers into your ear.
01:03:17 Yeah.
01:03:17 We don't know what he's saying to you,
01:03:19 but can I just show you one or two excerpts
01:03:21 of what it feels like?
01:03:23 And the whole world wants to know.
01:03:24 I'll tell you.
01:03:24 What is he saying to you in your ear?
01:03:27 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:03:30 What happens here, DP?
01:03:41 I really want to know what he's saying to you.
01:03:42 It's usually they're saying something
01:03:45 and I can't hear.
01:03:46 I mean, I can hear,
01:03:48 but I don't understand what they're saying.
01:03:51 So I'm like, "What are they saying?"
01:03:52 And he says,
01:03:55 "I just want her to flash her smile.
01:03:58 I will say all kinds of things to her in her ear
01:04:01 just to make her smile and laugh."
01:04:03 See her pearly white.
01:04:03 And this is not just in front of the paparazzi,
01:04:06 in life only.
01:04:06 I just, I will say things to her
01:04:09 just to see this smile of hers,
01:04:11 this angelic smile of hers.
01:04:13 So you go and whisper sweet nothings
01:04:14 and that smile comes up.
01:04:15 When I first engaged her,
01:04:17 I noticed that she has
01:04:19 the most beautiful smile
01:04:22 and the most devilish eyes.
01:04:24 I can hear the audience inside going.
01:04:26 Devilish eyes.
01:04:27 Yeah, which is a deadly combo.
01:04:29 And to show this smile to the world,
01:04:32 I will say anything in her ear,
01:04:34 she'll laugh or smile or something and then…
01:04:36 And the paps will get the tag.
01:04:38 Yeah, so the paps should thank me.
01:04:40 By the way, my sense of humor is a large part
01:04:43 of the reason she's with me.
01:04:44 I always know what to say
01:04:46 that will make her laugh or make her smile.
01:04:48 I think one of the most special things
01:04:51 about our relationship is that
01:04:53 we keep the child in us, each other alive.
01:04:55 Alive.
01:04:56 You know, if someone says,
01:04:58 "Summarize what your relationship is."
01:05:00 It is on the weekends
01:05:02 because we're so private
01:05:03 but we also like dancing
01:05:04 and letting our hair down
01:05:05 on a Saturday night.
01:05:07 It's just…
01:05:08 You're revealing too much about your life.
01:05:10 It's just him and I, we have dinner,
01:05:13 then we pack everyone off.
01:05:15 It's just him and me.
01:05:16 We're watching something,
01:05:17 then we finish watching that,
01:05:18 then we play music.
01:05:20 And I love music and he loves music
01:05:22 and we like sharing our music with each other.
01:05:25 So now we start this sort of jugalbandi
01:05:27 of who's playing,
01:05:28 what are the new tracks we found.
01:05:30 And before we know it, we're dancing,
01:05:33 just the two of us in our living room
01:05:34 till four in the morning.
01:05:35 Two-person dance party.
01:05:37 It's just him and I, alone in the house.
01:05:39 This is the best.
01:05:40 Of all the things I've heard people do.
01:05:42 So yes, there's all of this.
01:05:44 And this is not…
01:05:45 I mean, this is also us
01:05:46 but then that's the us that we…
01:05:49 I'm just imagining that this is the best
01:05:51 kind of date to be on.
01:05:53 Like it's like a…
01:05:53 It's true.
01:05:54 I mean, I'm just going to call this moment
01:05:56 like the grand coffee date
01:05:57 because that's what happens.
01:05:59 Because two people love music,
01:06:01 they exchange playlists
01:06:02 and they start dancing and this is two people.
01:06:04 And like you dance like no one's watching.
01:06:05 No, literally, like we stay in this apartment.
01:06:08 So, you know, there are times
01:06:10 where I visualize it from the outside.
01:06:12 All the lights in everyone else's apartment
01:06:15 is switched off
01:06:15 and there's just this one light on the 30th floor
01:06:17 that's switched on in our living room
01:06:19 and there's just the two of us dancing.
01:06:20 Dancing.
01:06:22 I don't think there's a better note
01:06:23 to end this episode on.
01:06:25 Thank you.
01:06:26 It's been emotional.
01:06:27 It's been exhilarating.
01:06:28 It's been warm.
01:06:29 It felt like a hug.
01:06:30 The entire episode felt like one big,
01:06:33 like heartfelt hug.
01:06:35 And for that, I thank you.
01:06:36 I thank you for opening the season.
01:06:38 I thank you for pouring your hearts out,
01:06:40 for being so absolutely generous
01:06:43 with your words and thoughts
01:06:45 and anecdotes and stories.
01:06:46 Thank you, Ranveer.
01:06:47 Thank you, Deepika.
01:06:49 May the universe always
01:06:51 give you the choices blessings.
01:06:52 Thank you.
01:06:53 I know you also want.
01:06:55 Hug is a hug.
01:06:59 Hug is a hug.
01:07:00 It's best for being humans.
01:07:02 Thank you.
01:07:03 Love you.
01:07:05 Thank you.
01:07:05 All right, I'm not gonna let you go.
01:07:08 Tradition goes that you have to sign the mug.
01:07:10 Tradition also asks us to go
01:07:17 and place it beautifully on our coffee wall of fame.
01:07:20 Let's do it.
