Deepika
Padukone
is
one
of
the
most
successful
actresses
of
Bollywood
today.
We
all
know
that
she
dated
Ranbir
Kapoor
in
the
past
but
very
few
know
Nihar
Pandya
was
her
first
boyfriend
when
she
came
to
Mumbai.
And
in
a
recent
interview,
Nihar
revealed
that
he
is
still
in
touch
with
Deepika.
When
Indian
Express
asked
Nihar
Pandya,
''Are
you
still
in
touch
with
Deepika?
How
would
you
define
your
equation
with
her
today?''
Nihar
said,
''Yes,
we
are
very
much
in
touch.
It's
nowhere
close
to
the
way
it
has
been
portrayed
so
far
with
reports
suggesting
that
both
of
us
are
waiting
to
run
each
other
down
or
anything.''

Bollywood
Journey
Deepika
Padukone
became
an
overnight
star
when
her
debut
film
Om
Shanti
Om
released
with
Shahrukh
Khan,
while
Nihar
was
seen
in
a
brief
role
in
the
Salman
Khan
starrer
Marigold.
Nihar
Pandya
According
to
reports,
Nihar
Pandya
was
Deepika
Padukone's
first
boyfriend
in
Mumbai.
Nihar
helped
Deepika
a
lot
during
her
struggling
days.
Nihar's
Girlfriends
Rumour
has
it
that,
Deepika
Padukone
left
Nihar
Pandya
for
Ranbir
Kapoor.
After
dating
Deepika,
Nihar
was
in
a
relationship
with
Gauhar
Khan.
Nihar
Praises
Deepika
Nihar
praised
Deepika
and
said,
''She
got
a
chance
and
she
is
doing
phenomenally
well
and
improving
with
every
film
that
she
is
doing
which
is
great.
On
my
front,
it
has
taken
long,
rather
long.
But
I
have
been
told
that
a
hopeless
optimist
is
the
right
way
to
be.''
Nihar
Pandya
further
added,
''It's
all
very
much
on
a
friendly
note.
But
these
days
when
you
say
friends
people
feel
there
is
something
more
to
it
and
we
should
check
with
the
other
person
as
well.
Unfortunately
with
these
relationships
that
I
have
been
tagged,
there
is
a
wrong
notion
among
people
that
I
am
wanting
to
be
with
an
actress.
That
is
not
how
we
had
planned
it.
And
I
would
like
to
undo
that,
this
year.
I
would
now
like
my
actions
to
speak
louder
than
words.''
When
asked,
''It's
Deepika's
birthday
today.
Anything
that
you
would
like
to
say?'' He
said,
''Like
every
year,
I
wish
her
a
very
happy
birthday.
May
she
keep
delivering
bigger
hits
with
every
passing
year.''
According
to
reports,
when
Deepika
Padukone
had
first
arrived
in
Mumbai
from
her
hometown
Bangalore,
Nihar
Pandya's
family
had
taken
care
of
her.
Deepika
had
met
Nihar
in
an
acting
school.
