In a heartfelt revelation, Bollywood superstar Ranveer Singh has opened up about the indispensable role his wife, actor Deepika Padukone, has played in his life and career. He candidly admitted that navigating the intense pressures of fame would have been impossible without her grounding presence.
Deepika Padukone: The Pillar Behind Ranveer's Stardom
During a past Instagram Live session with Indian footballer Sunil Chhetri, Ranveer Singh reflected on his journey in the film industry. He stated that Deepika Padukone has been his anchor, preventing him from feeling overwhelmed by the demands of being a movie star. "I wouldn't have been able to cope with the pressures of being a movie star if she wouldn't have been there. I would have been lost," Ranveer confessed.
The actor, who met Deepika three years after starting his career in show business, emphasized her continuous support. He credited her for his achievements, adding, "I probably wouldn't have achieved what I did if it wasn't for her." He described her as a more evolved individual due to her own career experiences, calling her a great guide and a pillar who keeps him on track.

Ranveer Singh also addressed the concern Deepika often feels regarding his acting process. Known for his immersive and extreme approach to embodying characters, Ranveer acknowledged that his methods can take a toll on his health. He explained that Deepika's worry stems from witnessing his willingness to go to any extent for a role.
"She worries for me only because she sees I will go to any extent to get the desired result of the character," he said.

However, the actor shared that he has now found healthier ways to achieve the same results for his performances.
