During a conversation with HT Cafe, Deepika Padukone was questioned about her plans for having children. She said, ‘I think it’s sad that society kind of puts itself and people in this rut that okay, you are dating for so long toh shaadi kab hogi, shaadi ke baad bacche, and then grandchildren. It’s almost like it’s the expectation. I’m not surprised by the rumors; we’re not surprised by it at all.’
She further added, ‘Do we intend on having children? Of course we do; we both love kids. But do we intend on having children anytime soon? Absolutely not! We’re too selfish at this point, focused on our careers, and I don’t think it would be fair to have kids at this point. We’re not even thinking about kids.’
Meanwhile, Deepika and Ranveer Singh are expecting their first child sometime in September this year (2024). The couple is all set and excited to welcome the new addition to their family. On the work front, Ranveer and Deepika are set to appear together in ‘Singham Again’. Ranveer also has projects like ‘Don 3’ and ‘Shaktimaan’ lined up, while Deepika is involved in ‘Kalki 2989 AD.’
