Her mother, Ujjala, is a travel agent, and her sister, Anisha, is a golf player who plans to lead a non-filmy life.

One of Bollywood’s leading actresses, Deepika Padukone, started dating co-star Ranbir Kapoor in 2008 during the filming of Bachna Ae Haseeno. She even sported a tattoo of Kapoor’s initials ‘RK’ on her neck. The two soon broke up after Ranbir Kapoor reportedly cheated on her, leaving her angry and betrayed. They, however, claim to be on good terms together and have worked on several films with one another since then.

The actress was also involved with business mogul Vijay Mallya’s son, Siddharth Mallya until they broke up in early 2012. Deepika was reportedly gifted a luxury home by Prabhadevi worth around 16 crores.

Later, she was often seen around Ranveer Singh. Deepika Padukone initially never admitted to being in a relationship with him.

Acting career

The actress bagged a Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut and was nominated for the Best Actress Award.

Her next few movies, however, didn’t win her much praise. Although a commercial success, Bachna Ae Haseeno saw the actress getting several negative reviews, and her role in the flop comedy film Chandni Chowk To China was also dismissed as sub-par. Although her film Love Aaj Kal, opposite Saif Ali Khan, was received with much more praise than her previous two films, her roles in subsequent films like Karthik Calling Karthik, Houseful, Lafangey Parindey, Break Ke Baad, Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey, Aarakshan, and Desi Boyz saw Deepika Padukone go into a slump.
