Watch: Five years on, Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone unveil emotional wedding video

Bollywood's power couple shared the clip on the first episode of 'Koffee With Karan' season 8

In 2012, Deepika Padukone appeared on Simi Garewal's talk show. In the said show, the actor, who was still reeling from an infamous heartbreak at that time, was foretold of her love life by a tarot card reader. Much to the Pathaan star's surprise, who had no intentions of settling down any soon, Munisha Khatwani said that the person Padukone would marry would be intelligent, educated, and “adore the floor she will walk on.”

Enter Ranveer Singh.

Padukone and Singh, on paper, are seemingly very different individuals. While the Simmba actor is known for his flamboyant nature, Padukone tends to appear rather shy, and according to the latter, maybe that's exactly why they work so well. Almost five years after their lavish destination wedding in Italy, we finally have the first video from the famous DeepVeer wedding!

The couple was the first guest on filmmaker Karan Johar's popular talk show, Koffee With Karan's eighth run. Padukone and Singh, still head over heels for one another, unveiled the clips from their nuptials that made headlines worldwide. The four-minute clip starts with Singh raising a toast at the couple's engagement. "If you told me that one day you'll marry Deepika Padukone, I'd tell you, you've gone crazy! That was one day and today's another!" an excited Singh says to the cheering crowd. "I've finally done something right in life."

The next three and a half minutes compile the precious moments from their exuberant wedding. We see several wedding ceremonies taking place, the duo's families and friends coming together to celebrate the time of their lives with them. "He's very different from us," the Chennai Express actor's father, Prakash Padukone, says in the video. "We're very quiet, we're a very boring family - us four. But I think it's a good change. He'll bring some life."

In a heartfelt conversation with the videographer, Padukone shares what she felt like when she tied the knot with her better half. "I was attracted to the person most of the world had not seen," the star says while speaking about her husband. "There's a quiet side to him, there's a very intelligent side to him, there's a very sensitive side to him, I love the fact that he cries. And I love the fact that he was all heart."

Padukone goes on, "When all the ceremonies were done, something changed. Suddenly, there's a sense of belonging, there's a sense of responsibility, it just makes all of this really solid. You just feel complete." The Jawan actor then smiles and adds, "Yeah, complete. That's the right word."

The Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani connection

What many didn't realise was that the DeepVeer wedding video had a link to Padukone's famous film, Yeh Jawan Hai Deewani. The video was shot by the person who filmed the popular song, Kabira, from the 2013 film. "During the filming of Kabira for Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani, I had the honour of directing her," the videographers Abhijit Datta and Jenish Maru share on Instagram.

"On a crisp evening, amidst rounds of Pictionary by the poolside with the crew, she leaned in and said softly, 'When the time comes for my wedding, I’d be honoured if you would be the one to capture it.' I was taken aback, a blush creeping up unnoticed. She held onto that sentiment, gently reminding me of that whispered promise during her wedding film’s screening years later," they add.

Adding on, the videographers comment, "Set against the stunning backdrop of Como, The Wedding Filmer had the distinct honour of encapsulating the magical union between Bollywood’s icons, Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh. It wasn’t just about documenting their wedding day, but rather weaving a tale of love, trust, and commitment." They conclude with, "Some stories are so close to the heart that they’re held close, and perhaps they wanted this narrative to be theirs alone for a time."

Karan Johar tears up

The couple's dreamy wedding also had Johar tearing up. The video was full of happy and loved-up moments, and by the end of it, the filmmaker was seen getting emotional. He said, “God! My heart is full."

The filmmaker admitted that while he was extremely happy that the couple found each other, he couldn’t help but feel lonely at the same time. “I am not in a relationship and I am kind of single. It just makes me feel like what I am losing out on not being in one,” said Johar.

The director further added, “You don’t have a partner of your own to share the nothings of your day with. And every day, I wake up and a little part of me feels that vacuum."

He said that while he has his kids Yash and Roohi, and his mother, he misses having that ‘soul connection’ with someone. “I have my kids and mom but when I see this and I see you, and I know relationships are tough, but that soul connection with a person that you can wake up with, hold their hand, and see your day through tough times. I don’t think I’ve had a moment like this on my own show. I felt so happy for you and I felt so alone yet. I hope this manifests into, I hope I have a story to tell,” said Karan.

He further added that he is aware the couple's relationship isn’t easy, given that they are such huge Bollywood stars and the world’s gaze is on them. “You two make it seem like it's pure. And it seems like it's coming from a place of truth. And that's everything,” he said.

Another tweep added, "In 2012, a tarot card reader told Deepika Padukone that she would end up with a man who would worship the floor she walks on, years later she found that exact person in Ranveer Singh! This is the love story that you see only in books of tales, oh my."
