Rani Mukerji kept Deepika Padukone-Ranveer Singh waiting?

Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone

Before they head to Italy, Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone were keen to meet Aditya Chopra to seek his blessings before their marriage. The couple had sought good wishes from Farah Khan, who launched Dippy in B-Town, as well as Sanjay Leela Bhansali who gave them hit movies. As Ranveer considers Adi his mentor, who launched him in Band Baaja Baraat, he wanted to meet Chopra.

Buzz is that they wanted to meet Adi at his Juhu home, but when he was unavailable, they reached out to wife Rani Mukerji who kept delaying the meeting saying Adi is tied up or not at home. Finally, Ranveer spoke to Adi on phone. Well, well.

Celebrities Karan Johar, Alia Bhatt, Parineeti Chopra, Rajkummar Rao, Arjun and Sonam Kapoor among many others instantly wished "a life full of love, happiness and togetherness" to the newly-weds, every one of them completely floored after the first few images of the Konkani wedding and Anand Karaj were uploaded on Instagram.

Deepika and Ranveer, after two days of wedding ceremonies in the far and dreamy Lake Como setting in Italy, unveiled their first look as a married couple to the public on Thursday.
