When Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone talked about lots of kids and a peaceful family
One of the videos shows Ranveer and Deepika talking about having children and a peaceful life. When Ranveer made his TV debut with The Big Picture in 2021, at the launch event of the show, the actor revealed his “big picture” and said, “Ek chota sa pyaara sa ghar ho, jismein meri wife aur mere bacche, puri family khel rahi khood rahi hai aur sab khush hain, swasth hain (A small, lovely home where my wife and children are together, the whole family laughing and playing, and everyone is happy and healthy).”
Another video that has surfaced on the internet shows Deepika talking about having lots of children and grandchildren, and hoping for a peaceful life. In 2017, even before marrying Ranveer, Deepika spoke to France 24 at the Cannes Film Festival about the kind of life she imagined for herself at 70. She said, “Hopefully have a little home with a sea view, lots of children and grandchildren. Just a good, happy and peaceful life.” In another video shared by a fan club, the actor revealed the one thing she wished to do before she died, saying, “One thing I have got to do before I die is definitely have lots of babies. That’s what I want to do.”
