Over the years, Ranveer has worked with Deepika on several films such as Bajirao Mastani, Padmaavat and 83. They were last seen on the big screen together in Singham Again. The couple sent their fans into a tizzy by collaborating on Experience Abu Dhabi. Deepika has joined Ranveer as a brand ambassador for the Emirates.

“I love working with Deepika. Our on-screen chemistry is so natural,” Ranveer tells us in an exclusive interview. The actor continues, “There’s an authenticity there that’s priceless. That really resonates with the audience.”

“Indian travellers are emotionally driven. They want stories and experiences that make them feel something at a soul level. When they see us exploring the place together, they’re seeing the possibility of how two people can live to the fullest, experience beautiful moments and create memories,” added Ranveer, who welcomed his daughter Dua with Deepika in 2024.

Here, Ranveer reveals that he and Deepika have very different travel personalities.

“When it was just me, the vibe was definitely playful and just really full-throttle hype mode. But with Deepika, there’s a grounding presence. She brings grace and poise that complements my energy… Together, we reflect two different traveller types and find interesting things to do in the city - as a couple,” adds Ranveer, who will soon be seen in the film, Dhurandhar, which is slated to release in December.
