He’s loud and wild with a larger-than-life personality. She’s calm, poised, and the epitome of beauty. Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone’s love story is the quintessential tale of opposites attract. From the moment he saw for the first time in 2012, Ranveer Singh fell head-over-heels for Deepika. Six years later, they sealed the deal in Italy with a big fat Bollywood wedding.
Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh’s love story began on the sets of Ram Leela. As they made their way into audiences’ hearts with killer performances, their own started beating for each other. And, now, almost a decade later, they are going just as strong.
So, how did this reel love turn into real love? Here’s a complete dating timeline of Deepika and Ranveer. Put on your heart-shaped glasses, this is going to be a good one!
2012: Love at first sight
The first time Ranveer Singh laid eyes on Deepika Padukone was in 2012. She was wearing a silver gown, and he knew he was done for as soon as he looked at her. He remembers the exact moment he saw his ladylove and the rest, as they say, is history!
2013: From reel love to real love
The rumor mill was buzzing with news of Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh’s romance which blossomed on the sets of Ram Leela. While, at the time, there were strong denials, Ranveer later confirmed that their on-screen sizzling chemistry translated off-screen too.
2014: The oh-so-romantic secret engagement
Staunchly committed to keeping their relationship under wraps, Deepika and Ranveer secretly got engaged in 2014! Post their wedding, Deepika Padukone confirmed that only their families knew their plans to marry at the time.
2015: Not-so-subtle PDAs
Post their engagement (which was still hidden from the world), the two became more relaxed with PDA. In 2015, as Deepika walked out of Farah Khan’s party with Karan Johar, Ranveer trailed behind with a rose in his hand.
In the same year, Ranveer Singh serenaded Deepika Padukone on the IIFA awards stage. We mean, subtlety was never Ranveer’s strong suit, was it? Not that we’re complaining!
2016: DeepVeer go public
After years of denial, DeepVeer finally went public in 2016, when Ranveer and Deepika left hand in hand from the Ambani bash.
2017: Ranveer proves Deepika’s biggest support
2017 was a BIG year for Deepika Padukone. She made her Hollywood debut with xXx: Return of Xander Cage opposite Vin Diesel, Ranveer Singh was boyfriend no.1. Letting his girl bask in the limelight, Ranveer stood by her side FROM the sidelines.
2018: Nuptials in Italy to seal the deal
In 2018, the long-time couple tied the knot in Lake Como, Italy in a STUNNING wedding. Deepika looked drop-dead gorgeous in Sabyasachi and Ranveer made a handsome groom. The wedding kicked off with a puja in India and the festivities continued in Italy. Post wedding, the couple held multiple reception dinners for friends and family.
2019: Celebrating a year of togetherness
Deepika and Ranveer are all about celebrating each other and respecting their distinctive cultures. As they clocked on year to their wedding, they visited the Tirupati Balaji Temple in Andhra Pradesh and the Golden Temple in Amritsar the next day.
DeepVeer’s happily-ever-after continues
Now, almost five years after their wedding, the couple is going stronger than ever. They have found soulmates and life-long cheerleaders in each other. Ranveer still gushes about Deepika the same, and Deepika (admittedly less expressive) is always by her husband’s side. Who knew Ram Leela would not only change the trajectory of their careers, but also of their lives!
