Ranbir
Kapoor
and
Deepika
Padukone
were
one
of
the
hottest
couples
of
Bollywood
but
for
reasons
best
known
to
them,
the
two-drifted
apart
and
parted
ways,
and
are
now
just
friends.
Today,
we
bring
to
you
a
flashback
interview
(By
People
magazine)
of
Ranbir
and
Deepika,
where
they
revealed
everything
about
their
first
date
and
how
they
fell
in
love.
Their
First
Meeting
Deepika
Padukone:
''This
goes
back
to
when
we
were
shooting
for
our
respective
debut
films
[Om
Shanti
Om
and
Saawariya]
and
we
had
just
heard
about
each
other.''
''We
had
common
makeup
artists
--
Bharat
and
Dorris.
Dorris
is
really
fond
of
us,
and
she
told
me
that
he
[Ranbir]
is
a
really
sweet
guy
and
we
should
meet
up.''
We
Went
For
Lunch
''Dorris
had
once
called
him
when
she
was
with
me.
She
said:
"Why
don't
you
guys
talk?" That's
when
we
first
spoke
and
exchanged
numbers.
A
few
days
later,
almost
around
the
same
time
[July
2007],
he
asked
me
out
for
lunch.
He
came
and
picked
me
up
and
we
went
to
Celini
at
Grand
Hyatt
[Mumbai]
for
lunch.''

We
Spent
The
Day
Together
Ranbir
Kapoor:
We
just
happened
to
spend
the
day
together.
It
Didn't
End
There
Deepika:
It
was
meant
to
be
only
lunch;
but
lunch
became
coffee;
coffee
became
cheesecake;
and
cheesecake
became
movie.
Ranbir:
Mr
Bean's
Holiday
is
the
movie
we
watched
at
PVR
Cinemas
in
Juhu.
We
Started
Seeing
Each
Other
On
This
Date...
Deepika:
That
didn't
end
there.
It
became
a
long
drive
and
then
he
dropped
me
home.
We
started
seeing
each
other
on
February
23,
[2008].
It
has
been
a
year
since
we
have
known
each
other.
I
Remember
What
Deepika
Was
Wearing
That
Day
Ranbir:
I
clearly
remember
she
was
wearing
a
white
ganji
and
white
linen
pants.
She
had
her
hair
tied
up
in
a
bun.
I
Can't
Forget
Ranbir's
Ugly
Shoes
Deepika:
I
don't
remember
really.
He
was
wearing
layered
clothes:
a
T-shirt
and
a
half
sleeve
shirt
on
top
of
it.
Oh,
how
can
I
forget
the
ugly
shoes
that
he
had
worn?
What
are
those
shoes
called?
Ranbir:
Hmmm...
Timberland.
Now
He
Has
Changed
Deepika:
Now
he
has
changed,
he
wears
these
really
cool
shoes.
But
at
that
point
the
couple
of
times
we
met
he
wore
this
pair
of
ugly
shoes.
I
remember
complaining
about
the
shoes
to
him
then.
Ranbir's
Frame
Is
So
Small
Ranbir:
I
only
wear
them
now
when
she
is
out
of
town.
But
they
are
a
favourite
pair
of
shoes.
Deepika:
The
boots
don't
suit
him
as
his
frame
is
so
small
and
the
boots
are
so
huge.
I
Pursued
Deepika...
Ranbir:
I
pursued
her.
I'm
quite
orthodox
that
way.
I
feel
a
man
should
always
pursue
a
woman.''
He
Came
All
The
Way
To
Karjat
To
Pick
Me
Up..
"He
came
all
the
way
to
Karjat
to
pick
me
up.
I
was
shooting
a
song
with
Akshay
Kumar
for
Chandni
Chowk
to
China
then,
and
he
was
free
for
a
couple
of
days.
He
drove
all
the
way
to
Karjat
to
pick
me
up
and
we
spent
the
evening
together."
When
Deepika
Blamed
Ranbir
"Yeah,
that's
where
(during
the
shooting
of
Bachna
Ae
Haseeno)
you
made
me
put
on
weight.
He
would
order
burger
for
himself
and
also
get
one
for
me."
The
Best
Thing
About
Deepika!
"The
best
part
is
that
there
is
no
negativity
in
her.
When
I'm
with
her,
I
am
surrounded
by
goodness.
It
makes
me
good
in
some
way."
