What did Deepika Padukone say?
"I wanted to remain single for some time because I had come from a difficult relationship. I was going through a phase where I said 'I just don't want to be attached, don't want to commit.' And I enjoyed it! And then he (Ranveer Singh) came along, so I didn't commit until he proposed to me. There was no such 'commitment'. Even if we are technically allowed to meet other people, we will just keep coming back to each other," Deepika said on KWK season 8.
Many people on the internet targeted Deepika for revealing that she went on dates with other men even after meeting Ranveer Singh. The couple also said that they were not together at that moment. Deepika revealed that she feels connected to Ranveer and would go back to him. However, people are using only a part of his statement and trolling her.
