DEEPIKA & RANVEER

“Trial Separation”? Insider Buzz Heats Up

ne of Bollywood’s most beloved couples — Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh — is
back in the gossip spotlight, with fresh whispers of a “trial separation” doing the rounds.
OWhile both actors have been seen attending events separately in recent weeks, their ab-
sence from each other’s social media feeds has raised eyebrows. Deepika, who is currently in the
final trimester of her pregnancy, was seen at a private prenatal wellness retreat in Alibaug, while
Ranveer has reportedly moved into a separate apartment in Bandra for the time being.

Sources close to the couple say the decision is “mutual and temporary,” meant to give both
space during a stressful phase. “They’re not splitting,” said one source. “But they’ve had some
differences recently and are working through them.”

The couple, married since 2018, has always appeared rock-solid in public. But industry insiders say
the pressures of professional commitments and impending parenthood may have created some friction.
