Referring to actor-husband Ranveer Singh as her "best friend", Deepika Padukone, in an interview to a lifestyle magazine, spoke about why she chose to marry him.

"I didn't want to have a live-in relationship to figure out if I wanted to marry someone or not. [I'm expecting] everything that comes with being a newly-wed: sharing space, or the bills, whatever it takes for two people to live a life together. He's my best friend, playmate, companion and confidante. I can be silly in front of him, I can be stupid in front of him, I can be sick in front of him, I can be whatever I want to be," she said in the interview.
