cheerleaders of his wife Deepika Padukone throughout her career. They are
one of the most loved and celebrated power couples of India. Ranveer and
Deepika have come together after 9 years for a dance number, ‘Current Laga
Re’, which has already been announced as the MASS song of the year.
At the launch where Deepika was getting appreciation for her moves and
expressions, Ranveer could not stop praising and hyping his wife. He said,
“I have been a fan and admirer of Deepika’s work before I even got to know
her. She has put in some really fine performances throughout her
filmography, but for me the highest rated is Meenamma from Chennai
Express.”
On being asked by a journalist, “Deepika is the Queen of Entertainment.
According to you, what makes her that and off screen is she a queen as
well?”
Ranveer, in reply, said, “Yes, she very much is the queen of entertainment.
I think 15 years of a glorious career having showcased an immense amount of
versatility across genres giving such special films, special characters,
and special performances as I said before none better than Meenamma in
Chennai Express. So the tagline is very apt the queen of entertainment and
definitely like I said queen of my life also. She has a very endearing and
humorous side to her which only I get to see, it is specially reserved for
me. So most certainly not just the queen of entertainment but the queen of
everybody’s hearts.”
He further added, “I feel in like if you can crack comedy as an artist then
you have opened up and unlocked a completely different dimension. Up until
Chennai Express, we didn’t even know Deepika’s humorous side and her
impeccable comic timing. I have seen Chennai Express twice in the theatres
and innumerable times otherwise it’s a cult classic. She really showcased a
different side of her repertoire and after so long we got to see a glimpse
of it in this song. This humours, joyous, joie de vivre, colourful, vibrant
side of Deepika which only “bhai” (Rohit Shetty) is able to bring out is my
favourite avatar of hers. I love to see her in this mould the most.”
Ranveer’s love and admiration for Deepika is giving us major couple goals
and we cannot wait to see them together in theatres this Christmas!
