While Deepika Padukone admits that her husband Ranveer Singh is a people's person with ‘irrepressible energy’, she insists that there's also a quiet, emotional side to him.
In her first interview post their wedding, Deepika spoke to GQ magazine about Ranveer and her ‘magical’ wedding celebrations.
"He is vulnerable, extremely emotional, very intelligent; childlike at times. That's not to say that his irrepressible energy isn't him, it's very him. He's a real people's person, but there's a quiet side to him too," Deepika told the glossy, according to excerpts shared with IANS.
"Emotionally, I think I'm the more intuitive one. I'd say IQ is more him. But at the same time, he's not all like, 'I'm a man, I can't show my emotions.' He is sensitive, and so am I, and it makes it easier to share a life with someone who understands that," she added.
"I'm aware of culture, tradition, all that I also understand what it means to be my own person. Of course, it's exciting to take your relationship to the next level, but at no point as a woman should you forget your sense of individuality. It's important to remain authentic and stay true to who you are. The idea is not to lose yourself in the process (of marriage)," Deepika concluded.
Earlier on Koffee With Karan season 6, in one of the games on the show, when Karan Johar asked Deepika what she hates, loves and tolerates about Ranveer, Deepika said, she loves Ranveer's "emotional quotient," hate's his lifestyle ("sleeping hours and all") and she tolerates his "fashion sense."
During another segment, when KJo asked Deepika, 'What kind of a husband Ranveer would make - emotional, mamma's boy or chauvinistic?' Deepika had confidently said, 'Mamma's Boy.'
