Viral video: Ex-couple Deepika Padukone and Ranbir Kapoor reunite at airport, share a warm hug

Mumbai/IBNS: The video of ex-couple Deepika Padukone and Ranbir Kapoor sharing a warm hug at the airport went viral on social media on Saturday morning.

Deepika and Ranbir, who were one of the most talked about B-Town power couples, met at the Mumbai airport leaving their fans excited.

The two sat on the same airport cart and drove together.

Later, Ranbir hugged Deepika and then both went ahead to get inside their respective cars.

Deepika and Ranbir reportedly began dating around 2007, when they were both rising stars in Bollywood.

They made their relationship public — which was rare for Bollywood actors then. Deepika even got Ranbir’s initials tattooed on the back of her neck.

They often appeared together at events and were seen as one of the most glamorous couples in the industry. 

The couple broke up around 2009, shortly after the release of their film Bachna Ae Haseeno.

There were rumors that Ranbir’s infidelity was the cause of the split — something he later admitted partially in interviews, saying he had been “immature” and made mistakes.

Deepika was open about her heartbreak in several interviews, saying the breakup made her stronger and more self-aware.

Despite the breakup, the two eventually rebuilt their friendship. 

They starred together again in Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani (2013) and later in Tamasha (2015) — both films were successful and showcased their strong on-screen chemistry.

Both have spoken respectfully about each other since then. Deepika has called Ranbir “a close friend” and “someone she’ll always respect.”

In an interview, Deepika had claimed she was cheated by Ranbir, who too acknowledged his mistake due to "immaturity" and "inexperience".

Currently, Deepika is married to actor Ranveer Singh and the couple have a daughter, named Dua.

Ranbir got married to Bollywood star Alia Bhatt and the two have a daughter, named Raha.
