Soon after Anushka Sharma announced on her social media about her wedding with long time boyfriend Virat Kohli, all Bollywood celebrities started wishing the newlyweds. However, Anushka’s alleged arch nemesis Deepika Padukone wasn’t among those celebs.
The relationship between Deepika and Anushka has never been the most cordial and it got a little more intense after DP decided to date Anushka’s first alleged celebrity boyfriend Ranveer Singh. Even so, the ‘Phillauri’ actress joined the infamous show ‘Koffee with Karan’ with Deepika’s other frosty colleague Katrina Kaif.
Bollywood showers newlyweds Anushka, Virat with love
However, on Deepika’s recent allegation of not wishing Anushka and Virat on their big day, a source revealed to PinkVilla the reason behind it. “While we know that Deepika and Anushka are on good terms today, it was odd that Deepika didn’t wish Anushka on social media like the rest of the Bollywood stars. All the talk started when Deepika started dating Anushka's alleged ex-flame Ranveer but their relationship is much more amicable today so one would have expected her to wish Anushka on her special day. Till a year ago, Anushka was still passing sarcastic remarks on Deepika with the latter maintaining a calm façade and saying she considered Anushka as a friend but somewhere this year both patched up," the source said.
On the other hand, an insider clarified the misunderstand and said Deepika has wished the couple, but on social media and instead personally. “Maybe not on social media, but Deepika has wished the happy couple personally and it was a warm message. She texted them both her best wishes individually, post the wedding. Deepika likes to add her own personal touch to whatever she does – be it her own team or friends and social media can be a cold and impersonal way of conveying one's feelings. Also she has always been very supportive of Anushka in everything she has done as Anushka has been of her. They may have had issues in the past but now both have found admiration and respect for each other.”
