In the midst of this, Priyanka Chopra, who was also a guest on the show, jumped in to defend Deepika’s choice. When Karan pointed out that many celebrities refrain from acknowledging their relationships, Priyanka offered a thoughtful perspective. She explained, “Some people like to keep it private. Some people don’t want to become a dinner table conversation.”

Priyanka further emphasized the importance of respecting personal boundaries by saying, “I am not offending her but I mean she has a right. If 90 percent of her life is for public, 10 percent needs to be hers.” Her words reflected a deep understanding of the pressures that come with living in the public eye and the need for celebrities to have some aspects of their lives that remain their own.
Karan continued to press the issue, asking Priyanka if she was aware of Deepika and Ranveer’s relationship. However, Priyanka remained firm in her stance, replying that she didn’t want to comment on it and that it was Deepika’s “business” to share or withhold such details.

Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone share a professional history, having worked together in two major films—’Goliyon Ki Rasleela Ram-Leela’ in 2013 and ‘Bajirao Mastani’ in 2015. In ‘Ram-Leela’, Deepika and Ranveer starred as the lead pair, while Priyanka made a memorable appearance in the song ‘Ram Chahe Leela.’ In ‘Bajirao Mastani’, the trio played significant roles, with Ranveer portraying the Maratha warrior Peshwa Bajirao, Priyanka as his first wife Kashibai, and Deepika as his second wife Mastani.
