During the event, Ranveer expressed love for his wifey Deepika and said, “Baby, achieving things on a global stage that are unprecedented for an Indian artist, you make your own path as you go. And through all of your achievements, really just living the life of purpose. I find that hugely inspiring. I admire you, I love you and you are really the best thing that has ever happened to me.”
On the other hand, Ranveer also praised Shabana Azmi who was also present at the venue. He said, “Shabana Ji, Kya lag rahi hain aap. OMG! Meri wife khadi hai samne fir bhi I have only eyes for you.” The ‘Gully Boy’ star also thanked Karan Johar for making him the leading man in his next film ‘Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani’ which also stars Shabana. He said, “I have felt so honoured and privileged to share screen space with Shabana Ji. I can tell you unequivocally, I know now from the closed quarters why she is considered to be the absolute master of her craft.” He then thanked Shabana for the warmth and kindness she showed on the sets of the film.
On the work front, Ranveer will next star in ‘Cirkus’ while Deepika has ‘Pathaan’ and ‘Fighter’ lined up for the release.
