Deepika Padukone Breaks Silence on Ranveer Singh's Blockbuster Dhurandhar 2
Deepika Padukone recently found herself at the center of intense social media conversations after she finally addressed the ongoing speculation surrounding her silence on Ranveer Singh's monumental film, 'Dhurandhar: The Revenge'. Since its release, the internet has been abuzz with praise for the Aditya Dhar directorial and Ranveer's performance, with many hailing it as his career-best work and a transformative moment in his stardom.
Viral Reel and Deepika's Response
A viral reel questioned Deepika's absence from the film's screening and her lack of public posts or praise. The video claimed, "Deepika Padukone just gave the 'silent treatment' to a Rs 500 crore budget. While Dhurandhar 2 shatters global records, Deepika skipped the premiere to hit a sitar concert with her in-laws instead. No posts, no praise, just silence. Is she making a statement against the director or just dodging the internet’s favorite drama?"
Deepika responded directly to this video, stating, "The latter my friend… P.S. I watched it way before any of you did. Now who is the joke on?" Her reply, though brief, ignited further discussions across platforms.
Public Criticism from Suzanne Bernert
Following Deepika's reaction, actress Suzanne Bernert publicly questioned her stance. Bernert took to social media to call out Deepika, expressing confusion over why she had not openly praised her husband's success. In her post, she wrote, "Dear Deepika, This isn't a flex! We are still waiting for you to openly praise your husband. I don't understand why you are not doing it. #Dhurandhar2TheRevenge."

Amidst the ongoing debate, 'Dhurandhar: The Revenge' continues to dominate the box office as a juggernaut. The film has earned widespread acclaim for Ranveer Singh's performance, crossing Rs 1300 crore at the worldwide box office and Rs 1000 crore in India, solidifying its status as a blockbuster hit.
