Ranveer very sensitive, emotional in real life: Deepika

December 13, 2015

New Delhi, Dec 13: Actress Deepika Padukone, who will be seen alongside her rumoured boyfriend Ranveer Singh in forthcoming film "Bajirao Mastani", says the latteer is very "sensitive" and "emotional" in real life unlike his onscreen image.

rd"A lot of people say to me that you are so lucky (to have Ranveer)Â… 24 hour entertainment and livewire. But actually he is not the same in real life. In front of so many people, he gets a different source of energy in him. But in actual life, he is very sensitive and emotional," Deepika said during a session at Agenda Aaj Tak here on Saturday.
Ranveer, meanwhile, replied: "I don't feel like showing my inner self in public because I'm very shy of all this."

The duo has re-teamed with their "Goliyon Ki Rasleela Ram-Leela" director Sanjay Leela Bhansali for "Bajirao Mastani", which also stars Priyanka Chopra.

Asked whether they knew the story of Peshwa Bajirao before signing the film, Ranveer said: "I did my schooling in Mumbai at a private school where Marathi was a compulsory subject till fifth standard. But in our whole syllabus, including Marathi and history, there wasn't any mention of Peshwa Bajirao."

"The syllabus only focused until Chhatrapati Shivaji's exploits. First time I got to know about 'Bajirao Mastani' was through a filmy magazine... Then while we were doing 'Ram-Leela', he told me about this project which he was planning to make for the past 12 years," he added.

Deepika also echoed a similar view.

The "Chennai Express" actress said: "There was no mention of Bajirao in my syllabus too. Just because of this film I've got to know about him and Mastani. During my school days I used to hear that Bhansali wants to make a film like this with Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in the lead. In my dream I never thought that one day I'll become an actress and will get a chance to be a part of this film."

"I believe in destiny. During that time Bhansali sir was not able to make this film due to various reasons. He really wanted to make this film but may be the paring didn't work or he didn't have that much budget. Now if Ranveer and I are in this film, I think it was in our destiny," she added.

"Bajirao Mastani" hits theatres on December 18.

Mumbai, Jul 27: Action director Parvez Khan, known for his work in films like Sriram Raghavan's Andhadhun and Badlapur, died on Monday after suffering a massive heart attack. He was 55. 

Parvez, who worked in the industry since 1986, was rushed to Ruby Hospital after he complained of chest pain, his longtime associate Nishant Khan told PTI. "He suffered a major heart attack in the morning. He was rushed to the hospital but was pronounced dead. He didn't have any health issues but felt chest pain last night," Nishant said.

Filmmaker Hansal Mehta, who worked with Parvez in the National Award winning 2013 drama Shahid, said the action director was extremely skilled. "Just heard that action director Parvez Khan is no more. We had worked together in Shahid where he executed the riots sequence in a single take. Very skilful, energetic and a good man. RIP Parvez. Your voice still rings in my ears," Hansal tweeted. 

Parvez started his career by assisting action director Akbar Bakshi in films like Akshay Kumar's Khiladi (1992), Shah Rukh Khan's Baazigar (1993) and Bobby Deol-starrer Soldier in 1998. It was with Ram Gopal Varma's Ab Tak Chhappan in 2004 that he started working independently and went on to have a long-standing collaboration with filmmaker Sriram Raghavan in films such as Johnny Gaddaar (2007), Saif Ali Khan-starrer Agent Vinod in 2012 and Badlapur, featuring Varun Dhawan. He is survived by wife, son, daughter-in-law and a granddaughter.
