It's the movie that's grabbing headlines and shattering records – Ranveer Singh's 'Dhurandhar 2.' While the film has taken the world by storm, Ranveer's wife, Bollywood superstar Deepika Padukone, has found herself in the crosshairs of online critics. The internet has been buzzing with curiosity, questioning why Deepika has been noticeably silent about her husband's cinematic triumph.
Deepika, however, has finally broken her silence, responding to the swarms of comments questioning her perceived aloofness. Although she didn't make an elaborate statement, she did take a moment to reply to a viral Instagram post that had everyone talking.
“The latter, my friend… P.S. I watched it way before any of you did. Now who is the joke on?”
The Instagram Reel that caught Deepika's attention painted her absence from the film's fanfare as a potential snub. It highlighted that instead of attending the premiere of 'Dhurandhar 2,' Deepika was spotted at a sitar concert with her in-laws – igniting speculation that her silence might be a silent protest against the film's director or just a strategic dodge from internet drama.
The reel questioned whether Deepika's silence was a deliberate statement. Nevertheless, her witty response provided a perfect clapback to critics, suggesting she had seen the film well before the rest of the world.
Deepika's straightforward comment quickly garnered over 500 likes, with fans rallying behind her. Supporters rushed to her defense, emphasizing that not every display of support needs to be publicized on social media.
One fan summed it up by saying, “The joke is on the whole internet,” while another pointed out, “Support doesn’t mean everything has to be showcased on social media.” Many fans highlighted that Deepika could very well be prioritizing family time, urging critics to give her space.
