Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone

There was a time when Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone painted the town red with their lovey dovey gestures in public. But it has been a while since the two are even spotted together.

Not just that, both the actors have been avoiding each other royally at events as well and this is the reason that they made different exits at Shahid Kapoor’s birthday party. Even the HT Most Stylish Awards that happened recently did not see Ranveer in attendance. While Deepika Padukone was there dressed in a black ensemble and chatting away with ex-boyfriend, Ranbir Kapoor’s mom, Neetu Singh, Ranveer apparently did not attend the do as he wanted to avoid Deepika.

But, let us tell you that it is the director of Ranveer and Deepika’s next flick, ‘Padmavati’ who has given them these instructions.

According to reports, Ranveer and Deepika have got strict instructions from SLB to not get clicked together before the promotions of their film begin later this year. He also does not want to provoke the groups that have been destroying ‘Padmavati’ sets, from doing it again, in any way.

So does that mean, all is well between Ranveer and Deepika? Well, we certainly hope so.

‘Padmavati’ also stars Shahid Kapoor in the male lead.
