About Ranveer SIngh and Deepika Padukone episode
In the opening episode of Koffee with Karan, Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone candidly shared details about their relationship, including how they informed their families about their engagement. KJo and Deepika also revealed about their personal struggles with anxiety and depression. Deepika, who publicly acknowledged her battle in 2015, shared how Ranveer provided her with a 'safe space' and remained patient and supportive.
The filmmaker recalled an incident from the past when he saw Deepika in tears during a helicopter ride from Alibaug. Deepika clarified that the incident occurred in 2014 and highlighted that her decision to speak out was motivated by her desire to bring about a positive change. She also emphasised that her journey with mental health remains an ongoing process, requiring continuous effort and dedication.
Karan revealed that he had a major depressive episode as recently as in April during the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre launch. He said, "The legit attack I had was at the NMACC launch. I remember Varun Dhawan was staring at me. I was sweating. I didn't even realise my face was full of sweat. Varun came and he was like, ‘Are you okay?' My hands were shaking. And then he took me to an empty room. I first thought it was a cardiac arrest. I didn't know what I was going through. I got out of my jacket, which was long and elaborate. I just left in half an hour. I went back home and I just went to my bed and I cried. I didn't know why I was crying."
Additionally, the episode featured exclusive, never-before-seen footage from their idyllic wedding ceremony in Italy.
Koffee with Karan airs on Disney+ Hotstar on Thursdays midnight.
