Deepika Padukone Skips Birthday Post For Ranveer Singh, Dhurandhar Launch; Fans Defend Her
While fans were thrilled with Ranveer's rugged and intense avatar, a section of the internet was more curious about Deepika Padukone's silence.
Actor Ranveer Singh celebrated his 40th birthday on July 6 with the launch of the action-packed first look video of Dhurandhar, his upcoming film with Aditya Dhar. While fans were thrilled with Ranveer's rugged and intense avatar, a section of the internet was more curious about Deepika Padukone's silence.
A Reddit thread pointed out that Deepika did not post a birthday wish for Ranveer on social media, nor did she share or react to the Dhurandhar teaser. The user also compared how Ranveer has often publicly shown support for Deepika's achievements. 'Maybe she should appreciate her husband a little," the post read. However, the conversation quickly took a turn as fans jumped to defend the actor-couple, calling the online speculation unnecessary and baseless.
One user wrote, 'So much overthinking here. I had a relationship where I was very vocal on social media about my partner but he wasn't. Behind closed doors, he supported me in everything. Does that make me the better partner? No, we were just different." Another fan chimed in, 'People who are reasonably happy don't even post that often about their lives. Not everyone lives on Instagram."
Many pointed out that Deepika has a history of sharing birthday or anniversary posts a few days later, and that the couple prioritises spending time together privately. 'She doesn't even post about her own movies on the same day. Their posts usually come later, but they always make sure to spend the day together," a fan noted. Another comment added, 'It's not necessary to perform your relationship online. Their bond clearly goes beyond public validation."
Notably, this birthday is extra special for Ranveer—it's his first as a father. Last week, Deepika Padukone made history by becoming the first Indian actor to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Ranveer proudly celebrated the moment with an emotional tribute post on Instagram.
Meanwhile, Dhurandhar is shaping up to be a massive ensemble project. Directed and produced by Aditya Dhar, and backed by Jyoti Deshpande and Lokesh Dhar, the film stars Ranveer Singh alongside Sanjay Dutt, R Madhavan, Akshaye Khanna, and Arjun Rampal. It is slated to release in theatres on December 12.

Arjun Rampal stuns in grey avatar for Aditya Dhar's ‘Dhurandhar'
Actor Arjun Rampal is riding high on the overwhelming response to his striking first look from the upcoming action thriller Dhurandhar. Portraying a mysterious grey-shaded character, Rampal is seen donning a golden tooth, metal-rimmed shades, and a dense beard—transforming completely for this role. Expressing his excitement, Arjun shared, 'This film isn't like anything I've seen before. It's a well-researched, fantastically made film with every department firing on all cylinders. I hugged Aditya (Dhar) after seeing the incredible outpour of love.' He also revealed that the film's story revolves around themes of grudge and moral ambiguity, offering something fresh and intense to the audience. 'What Aditya Dhar has created is unbelievable,' he added. Dhurandhar, presented by Jio Studios and produced under B62 Studios, is written, directed, and produced by Aditya Dhar. The project is co-produced by Jyoti Deshpande and Lokesh Dhar. The film explores the origins and missions of unsung men involved in covert operations, blending action, secrecy, and emotional depth. The star-studded cast includes Ranveer Singh, R Madhavan, Sanjay Dutt, and Akshaye Khanna, promising a gripping ensemble performance. The film is slated for a theatrical release on December 5, 2025. Arjun Rampal was last seen in the sports-action flick Crakk – Jeetegaa Toh Jiyegaa! alongside Vidyut Jammwal and Nora Fatehi. Up next, he will appear in the supernatural thriller Nikita Roy opposite Sonakshi Sinha, releasing on July 18, and The Battle of Bhima Koregaon, directed by Sidhnak Mahar Inamdar.

F1 The Movie Box Office: Emerges SUPER HIT in India, Steers toward 100cr
F1: The Movie has emerged SUPER HIT at the Indian box office after a solid hold on its third Friday. The motorsport drama collected nearly Rs. 2 crore yesterday, which is a 35 per cent drop from the previous day. That drop may appear steep, and it is, but it or even more was expected in the context of the film losing IMAX screens to Superman, which have been a significant contributor to its business. The running total for Brad Pitt starrer after fifteen days in release now stands at Rs. 75 crore approx (USD 8.80 million). The film will cruise past Rs. 80 crore mark by Sunday and then be close to Rs. 90 crore by the end of its third week. It is expected to get some of IMAX showcasing back in the fourth week, which should provide a boost to its business and will give it a genuine shot at crossing Rs. 100 crore. This is a remarkable outcome for the film, given there were hardly any expectations pre-release and even a Rs. 50 crore final would have been seen as an achievement. In India, the Hollywood box office is driven by established franchises. There are only two original films to gross over Rs. 100 crore, Oppenheimer and Avatar, both of which benefited immensely from the director star power. If F1 hits the century, it will be the third film to do so, and it will be in great company. The box office collections of F1: The Movie in India are as follows:
