Deepika Padukone on her equation with Ranveer Singh

Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh’s chemistry on screen has always charmed the audience. Talking about her on screen and off screen chemistry with Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone said to a leading Indian daily,  “First of all, it’s about the characters we assigned. Be it Ram Leela, Bajirao Mastani – though I can’t say the same about Padmaavat—it is the script which lends us room to play these characters in a way that makes the chemistry conspicuous. Then, of course, it’s the director who extracts the emotion. You cannot create chemistry if you don’t trust your co-actor. Ranveer and I have that equation where we can just blindly trust each other.”

Meanwhile, Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh have worked together in 3 movies, but none of these 3 movies had a happy ending. However, the actress hopes to do more films with Ranveer Singh which will have a happy ending.


Talking about her association with Sanjay Leela Bhansali, she said, “I do feel blessed. Because when I stepped into the industry ten years ago with Om Shanti Om, another Sanjay Leela Bhansali film was due for release at the same time. I couldn’t fathom that I could ever be his film’s lead character.”

Since then, Deepika has worked with Bhansali for three films. “More than the success of the film, he showered me with three very strong characters that left an indelible mark in the minds of cinema lovers. At the same time, when I sit down to tread the old memory lanes, it does feel like a blessing sometimes,” she added.
