JUNE 1- Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor has denied reports that his mother being the reason behind his split with actress Deepika Padukone, claiming it was their own individual choice.
Ranbir, 30, and Deepika, 27, began dating when they met on the sets of ‘Bachna Ae Haseeno’ in 2008 and the couple split after a year.
“It’s an issue between two individuals, but people work on several theories and then disturb things. My mother loves me a lot and wants me to live my own life. My mother is also very fond of Deepika. So, at least this was not the reason for the split. I want to clarify, my mother was not the reason for the break-up,” Ranbir said on Rajat Sharma’s TV show ‘Aap Ki Adalat’.
Ranbir attended the show to promote his latest release ‘Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani’ alongwith co-star Deepika.
“We have been friends since our break-up and shall continue to remain friends,” Deepika added.
In Ayan Mukerji directed film, which hit theatres today, Ranbir is seen doing some similar dance steps as his uncle Shammi Kapoor in ‘Badtameez Dil’ On being compared with the late ‘Junglee’ star, Ranbir said, “Let me tell you a big secret. Shammi Kapoor was technically not a good dancer.
“Even if they just stand behind my sofa, with me in front, that film would be runaway hit,” he said.
The show will be aired on June 1.
