Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma was taken aback by a surprise kiss from Deepika Padukone who is well known for being affectionate and displaying affection publicly.
Deepika was seen showering affection towards Anushka, who as we know is Deepika’s current boyfriend Ranveer Singh’s ex-girlfriend. The Bollywood divas got together to attend a meeting aimed to discuss the Indian censor board’s proposed ban on abusive language in Hindi films.
The two reportedly met warmly and hugged when they crossed each other’s path after which Deepika congratulated Anushka for her latest film NH10′s success. They later posed together for pictures.
Anushka apparently was slightly taken aback after the kiss but was left beaming nonetheless. This may be due to the fact that the two actresses seemed to be having a tiff. When Deepika came on Karan Johar’s popular chat show Koffee with Karan, she claimed Anushka was her friend but was mocked by Karan. Later, Anushka denied their friendship when she appeared on the same show. “Deepika is not my friend,” she had said.
Anushka later however supported Deepika for speaking out about her issues with depression. ”When Deepika spoke about her depression, people wrote so many things about her. She was doing it for a larger cause. Catherine Zeta Jones is dealing with bipolar disorder. Do people write such things about her,” Anushka had said.
It was quite incidental then that Johar was present at the censor board meeting where the two Bollywood beauties bonded.
The priceless moment made rounds on social media, with fans and Bollywood fiends Tweeting about the blossoming friendship.
