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.

Chennai, Jul 30: Filmmaker S.S. Rajamouli on Wednesday said he and his family members have tested positive for coronavirus and are currently quarantined at home.

The director, best known for his epic fantasy hit Baahubali series, said they got tested after they developed mild fever recently which subsided by itself.

“My family members and I developed a slight fever few days ago. It subsided by itself but we got tested nevertheless. The result has shown a mild COVID positive today. We have home quarantined as prescribed by the doctors (sic)” he said.

In a subsequent tweet, Rajamouli said he and his kin are asymptomatic and “feeling better”. They are, however, following all the precautions and instructions.

“Just waiting to develop antibodies so that we can donate our plasma,” he added.

Before the coronavirus-induced nationwide lockdown was announced in March, the filmmaker was working on his upcoming period action drama Rise Roar Revolt.

The Telugu film, featuring actors Ram Charan and NTR Jr in the lead, is a fictional tale based on the lives of two freedom fighters in early 20th century.

Andhra Pradesh witnessed its worst single day spike of coronavirus on Wednesday, 10,000 plus cases, as the other southern states, including Tamil Nadu and Karnataka also reported high daily numbers, although they saw a dip in the infections.

The cumulative tally of southern states — AP, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Telangana, Kerala and the Union Territory of Puducherry was 24,855 on Wednesday.

Mumbai, May 30: Actor Vaani Kapoor on Saturday said she will go on a virtual date with five people as part of an initiative to raise money for daily wage earners, who have been affected due to the nationwide lockdown implemented to rein in coronavirus.

Vaani has teamed up with actor Arjun Kapoor's sister Anshula Kapoor’s online fundraising platform, Fankind, to raise funds for daily wage workers.

Vaani and Fankind have come together to provide five of her fans a chance to go on a virtual date with her - by donating to provide food to daily wage workers.

“As human beings, we will need to come forward and support as many people as possible in need due to the coronavirus pandemic in our country. I’m doing my bit to support the daily wage earners of our country and their families who are in dire situations given the lockdown.

“My activity, in which five lucky winners can have a virtual date with me, will see us collect funds to help feed them and their families across the country," Vaani said in a statement.

Earlier, Arjun too supported the initiative to help daily wage earners.

According to the press release, the funds will go to GiveIndia, a non-profit organisation, which will provide hot cooked meals to wage earners and their families. Each meal costs Rs 30 and will be delivered in various areas of Maharashtra, Bangalore, and Chennai.

A.T.E. Chandra Foundation has also come on board and will be adding 25 percent of the total donation value collected as a matching amount, thereby multiplying the impact, the release said.

New Delhi, Feb 25: The Delhi High Court on Tuesday gave time to Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) to seek instructions on travel ban imposed on comedian Kunal Kamra.

Kamra approached the court against IndiGo which suspended him from flying with the airlines for a period of six months. Other airlines had also followed the suit in pursuance to this.

Justice Naveen Chawla said that the regulatory body should not have certified actions of airlines other than IndiGo to ban Kamra without conducting inquiry. The matter will now be heard on February 27.

Last month, IndiGo had barred the stand-up comedian for six months from using its services for allegedly portraying "unacceptable behaviour" onboard its flight.

The airline claimed that Kamra, while travelling on a Mumbai-Lucknow IndiGo flight, provoked a TV news anchor by asking questions over his news presentation style.
