And yet, for a relationship that has lasted almost half a decade, the two have tried to keep it as private as possible. 

However, after almost five years of giving us memorable characters onscreen and endearing gestures off it, Deepika and Ranveer announced that they were all set to get married in November this year. 

Predictably, celebrities and fans alike were absolutely thrilled at the news. 

And as their relationship turns ‘official’, here’s a look at one of the most romantic real-life love stories from Bollywood. 

Rumors of their affair started in 2013 on the sets of the movie Goliyon Ki Rasleela Ram-Leela. Directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, it was the first movie where the two starred together.

However, that was definitely not the first time the two met. The two had actually met during the Zee Cine Awards in 2012 – a meeting that Ranveer Singh did not forget ever.

In fact, he shared in an interview how he was enamored by how beautiful she looked in a silver gown. 

When fans questioned him on how he remembered such details, his response was an indication of how smitten he really was. 

And here we thought love, at first sight, was a concept that only existed in reel life, not real life!

However, as mentioned above, it was on the sets of their first film together that the two actually got to know each other, and rumors of their relationship started floating on social media. 

In fact, Ranveer Singh even had a small, interesting cameo in the movie – one that Deepika apparently had no idea about. 

However, if the cameo was not enough to convince people, their electrifying dance performance at the 2014 Zee Cine Awards definitely set the rumor mills running.

Professionally the two actors were on a steady path to success, and it looked like personally too, the relationship was moving on steadily. 

And despite his flamboyant image, Ranveer managed to keep his love life under wraps and rightly so, for years before finally making an announcement today. 

 And yet the power couple has managed to create headlines with their love and romance despite never officially confirming it. 

From running behind Deepika with a flower in hand….

To Instagramming their pictures with cheesy captions…

Ranveer has been winning the ‘best boyfriend’ award for years now. 

And then came adorable Dubsmash videos, sizzling magazine cover shoots, or their upcoming onscreen reunion in Bajirao Mastani, there was no hiding the fact that these two were much in love. 

Whether it was the flying kisses and not-so-subtle I love yous at IIFA 2016, or organizing a private screening of Deepika’s Hollywood debut xXx: Return of Xander Cage, the two definitely made no efforts to hide the love and support they shared. 

Even as their latest movie together Padmaavat faced one of the most controversial releases, the two continued to act as each other’s pillars of strength. 

While speculations about everything around their wedding began to surface on the internet – the wedding designer, the date, the location – the couple maintained their trademark silence… until today. 

Today, the duo finally announced on social media that they have set the dates November 14 and 15 for their marriage, and in a matter of minutes #deepveer became one of the top India trends on Twitter, with wishes pouring in from the general public and film fraternity alike. 

While no further details of the wedding have been released as of now, it is clear that Bollywood is all set for another grand wedding!
