When Deepika Padukone's Father Prakash Padukone Opened Up On Marrying His Second Cousin

1/5 Prakash Padukone, a former badminton player, was devastated following a career setback and subsequently married his second cousin Ujjwala. He himself revealed this in an interview, reflecting on his career's highs and lows. He disclosed that his wife Ujjwala is his second cousin. He said, 'Despite being ranked world number one, I lost the National Championship for the first time. I nearly quit badminton. I married my cousin Ujjwala while in a state of depression. After our marriage, we moved to Copenhagen, where I played until 1986. Deepika was born there. I retired in 1989.' This revelation sparked considerable discussion on social media. While marriages between cousins are common in South India, reactions were mixed, with some expressing support and others opposition. Furthermore, in a 2016 interview with India Today, Deepika Padukone revealed that her father had a crush on Madhuri Dixit. She shared, 'When my father heard about Madhuri Dixit's marriage, he locked himself in the bathroom and cried. Our family teased him about it for quite some time.' Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh are among Bollywood's leading stars. Deepika Padukone, one of the highest-paid actresses, began her career in 2007 with Om Shanti Om alongside Shah Rukh Khan. Together, they have delivered numerous box-office hits such as Chennai Express (2013), Happy New Year (2014), Jawan (2023) and Pathaan (2023). In 2018, Deepika Padukone married Ranveer Singh in an extravagant ceremony in Italy. In September 2024, she became a mother and named her daughter Dua.
