Actor Muzammil Ibrahim spilled the beans in an interview about dating Bollywood actor Deepika Padukone for two years. Initially he appeared hesitant, however gradually he spoke about the thick-and thin of being in the relationship.
In conversation with Siddharth Kannan, he said, “I was the first guy she met in Bombay, and she was my first serious relationship. I was in a bad relationship before that. She was very confident because she’s Prakash Padukone’s daughter, and articles would be written about her even then. She proposed to me but I broke it off with her later. I was a star at that time, she was a budding model. She’s a superstar now, nobody knows me.”
Muzammil mentioned that they stayed good friends until few years after breakup and communicated via., phone, however they have not talked since her marriage. “When we dated, we were both kids, we would go on dates on a rickshaw in the rain, that was very cute. When I eventually bought a car, I was making more money than her, she was very happy. Neither of us had much money, but we were very happy. I even made my DJ friend play her favourite song on loop for one and a half hours on her birthday. My mom loved her a lot,” stated the actor.
He quipped that her success never left him in jealousy and that he is satisfied now. He added that Deepika has a beloved husband Ranveer Singh, and are blessed with a beautiful child, Dua.
