During an interview with Bombay Times in 2015, when Ranbir was questioned to list the things about Deepika that he didn't like. The ‘Animal’ actor revealed that he didn’t like that she was a flirt. He said, “That she is a flirt. That she is working too much and should not burn herself out. She should take more holidays and breaks and should reserve herself, which she has started doing now.”


Deepika responded to the same question by saying, “There are more things I don’t like than like about him. I like that he is very, very respectful towards people. He is also someone who does not get visibly affected by people and by situations. He is someone who can detach.”


Ranbir and Deepika are now married and have moved on. While Ranbir and Alia Bhatt are married and have a daughter together, Deepika is expecting her first child with her actor-husband Ranveer Singh.


On the work front, Ranbir Kapoor has exciting projects like ‘Animal Park,’ ‘Love and War,’ ‘Brahmastra 2′ and many more in the pipeline. On the other hand, Deepika Padukone will be next seen in ‘Singham Again’ and ‘Kalki 2898 AD’.
