Deepika Padukone has always been one of the most desired women among men. She also dominates the wish list of many Bollywood actors, who want to share the screen with her. Though she is now married to actor and her long-time boyfriend Ranveer Singh, she previously ruled the hearts of many men. Before dating Ranveer, she was in relationship with Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor. However, that wasn’t her only failed love affair. The gorgeous diva got her heart broken a number of times before finally meeting Ranveer Singh.

Here’s a look at Deepika Padukone and her 7 ex-boyfriends:

1. Nihaar Pandya

Deepika Padukone was in a relationship with a Mumbai-based model Nihaar Pandya. She dated him for some time after coming to Mumbai from Bengaluru. In fact, both of them studied together at Mumbai’s Actor Prepares in 2006. Nihar and Deepika also allegedly lived together for three years before finally parting ways due to some reasons better known to them. Nihar Pandya made his Bollywood debut with Kangana Ranaut’s Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi in 2019.

2. Upen Patel

Deepika Padukone dated Bollywood actor Upen Patel for a very brief time. The actor appeared in 36 China Town and Namastey London. They did some really scintillating modelling photoshoots together.

3. M.S. Dhoni

4. Yuvraj Singh

When Dhoni was trying to win Deepika’s heart, the actress allegedly fell for Yuvraj Singh. They were seen together at various events that sparked off their dating rumours. Reports were rife back then that they even got engaged at a private ceremony. The rumours of their relationship flew away as first as they surfaced.

5. Ranbir Kapoor

Ranbir Kapoor is one of the longest and most serious relationships Deepika Padukone has had throughout her career. They met while shooting for their respective first films via common makeup artist Dorris. They started dating in 2007. They even became quite vocal about their relationship on chat shows and with media. Their relationship lasted for two years before finally breaking up. The reason behind their breakup is said to be Ranbir’s alleged unfaithfulness towards her. He fell for Katrina Kaif while working on Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani. Another rumour was rife that Neetu Kapoor disapproved of Ranbir’s relationship with Deepika Padukone.

6. Siddharth Mallya

7. Muzamil Ibrahim

The handsome hunk and Deepika Padukone also dated for a while after her breakup with Siddharth Mallya. However, the relationship was not very open in the media and social media. After their breakup, when Muzamil was offered a role in Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, he refused because he wasn’t comfortable working with her.
