About Doing Rom-Coms

Further, Deepika was asked at the event when she would star in a rom-com, and she replied, "I really hope very, very soon. As you all know, it is also one of my most favourite genres as an audience and as an actor. I just feel like the climate right now, or the environment right now-I feel like the audience is seeking something else. But if so many of you want a rom-com, I am sure a large part of the public wants that too."

In October, last year, Deepika and Ranbir's heartwarming reunion left fans delighted after they were spotted together at the Mumbai airport. The duo shared a warm hug as they sat together on an airport cart.

A video shared by a paparazzi Instagram account showed Deepika seated on a buggy, dressed in a grey co-ord set. Moments later, Ranbir arrived at the entry gate, greeted her with a friendly hug, and the two were seen riding away together in the same cart.

After being spotted together while leaving Mumbai earlier, the former couple was once again photographed by the paparazzi upon their return to the city from Delhi, with viral clips showing them hugging before heading to their respective cars.
