Karan Johar who saw the video for the first time on the show, was also quite emotional. One sees Ranveer and DP caught candid in some adorable moments during their wedding festivities. Deepika also revealed in the video what attracted him the most about Ranveer and it was the fact that he was okay being vulnerable and that he could cry. She revealed that what attracted her was this side of Ranveer which most people don’t see - that he’s very emotional, intelligent.

Ranveer revealed that he had proposed to Deepika in 2015 in Maldives. Just within six months of releationship, he knew that she was the one. He wanted to propose her before anyone else did. So, he planned everything meticulously, told his own family and they went on a holiday to Maldives. He popped the question in the middle of an island, amidst the sea where it was just him and her. She got emotional and said yes. When they came back and were having dinner with some family and friends of DP in Bangalore, she just randomly announced in front of everyone that Ranveer proposed to her and she said yes. DP’s mother Ujjala Padulone was quite shocked and wasn’t quite sure about Ranveer but over the years, he’s managed to win her trust and affection and now he’s her favourite, said the actor.

Deepika spoke about her battle with depression saying that it all started in 2014 and she would just constantly cry at times. There was one day when Ranveer and DP were having breakfast and she was sitting across him and kept crying. That was the moment when Ranveer felt helpless and immediately called her family to stay with her from Bangalore. DP added and said that during that time, instead of showing red flags, Ranveer created a safe space for her to just open up. She said that he was very patient despite the fact that he didn’t understand it at that point of time, but understands it better today.

While they come across this gorgeous, glam couple, DP revealed that the best part of their relationship is that they can be goofy with each other. Their idea of the perfect date is to get some alone time on a Saturday night, where there’s just nobody at home, except just the two of them. They then share their playlists with each other and dance in their living room till 4 in the night. That apart, DP-Ranveer’s chemistry was the major highlight of the episode.

Karan Johar revealed on the show that he wanted to remake ‘Sangam’ with Ranbir Kapoor, Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone. And he might still consider making it with this cast. ‘Sangam’ originally starred Rajendra Kumar, Raj Kapoor and Vyjayanthimala.
