Despite their denial about it — at least in front of public — Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone’s dating rumours have been doing the rounds, ever since they started shooting for Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s 2013 film Goliyon Ki Rasleela Ram-Leela.

In an interview to Times Of India, Deepika has finally opened up on her relationship with Ranveer, when she was asked about Ranveer’s comment on their relationship, reported the India Today.

She said, ‘He is my best friend (and this is not to be taken lightly). I am emotional, sensitive and vulnerable and I hurt easily. I can be so naked in front of Ranveer... and I know he will never hurt me or take me for granted. That is the kind of trust and understanding we have. The reason I love and respect him is that I can bare my soul and still feel comfortable. If this is divine connection - this is what it is!’

Earlier Ranveer had said, He said, ‘You know there is so much talk about our chemistry. What happens on screen when she and I are together is unprecedented. I don’t know what it is. It is just a divine connection. I’ve seen the line-up of what we’ve shot so far and it is mesmerizing when the two characters come together.’

‘Recently, Ranveer and Deepika were clicked for a photoshoot for their upcoming film Bajirao Mastani. And Ranveer also went down on his knees for his ladylove. The couple is so much in love, that they never miss a chance to praise each other.’

‘If the reports are to be believed, Ranveer has bought a flat in the C-wing of the same complex in Mumbai where Deepika lives. It is believed that the two will now get to spend some more time together as they had been living in Goregaon for quite some time due to the shooting of their film, Bajirao Mastani. They have also been spotted doing gym together.’

‘Directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Bajirao Mastani is set to release on 18 December this year. The film is also clashing with Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol’s Dilwale.’
