Instagram's head Adam Mosseri dances with influencers, gets a Bollywood welcome from Ranveer and Deepika in Mumbai
Last night in Mumbai, the glamour was turned up several notches, and not because of a movie premiere. Instagram's head honcho Adam Mosseri landed in the city, and who better to give him the starry welcome he deserves than Bollywood's ultimate power duo, Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh? And no that was not it, he was also seen dancing with influencer Sakshi Shivdasani on a Bollywood song.
DeepVeer welcomes Adam Mosseri
The couple, known for making every appearance feel like a red carpet moment, stepped out for dinner with the social media mogul. And yes, the paparazzi were on high alert. DeepVeer's post-dinner photos outside the restaurant screamed vibes — all warmth, laughter, and that signature Ranveer energy we live for.
Adam Mosseri dances on Bollywood song
And the reel posted by Sakshi Shivdasani Adam and Naina Bhan saw the three of them dancing on the song Luv Letter, while the three were dancing, the video said, 'nothing, we just made the Instagram CEO block our ex.'
What is the purpose of Adam Mosseri behind visiting India?
While the actual agenda behind Adam Mosseri's hush-hush India visit remains wrapped in mystery, this high-profile dinner has the internet guessing. A casual catch-up? A business brainstorm? Or something bigger cooking between Instagram and two of its most influential Indian users?
Taking to Instagram, Adam gushed about the meet-up, calling Ranveer and Deepika 'amazing and charismatic,' and gave a shoutout to the "unreal food" at the hotspot @papasbombay. Sources say the evening wasn't just about biryani and banter — whispers of digital partnerships and content innovation are already doing the rounds.
Let's not forget: Deepika and Ranveer have both built digital empires that go far beyond films. With Deepika's wellness ventures and Ranveer's unparalleled social media clout, the idea of a brand-couple collaboration with Instagram doesn't sound far-fetched. If Instagram is looking to tap into India's pop culture pulse — well, they just had dinner with the heartbeat.
