In a surprising social media twist, Deepika Padukone and filmmaker-choreographer Farah Khan have unfollowed each other on Instagram, fueling speculation about a fallout between the two.
The duo share a long history dating back to Om Shanti Om (2007), Farah’s directorial where Deepika made her Bollywood debut. They were often seen together at film promotions and private gatherings, but their latest online activity has left fans wondering if cracks have appeared in their relationship.
Farah Khan Unfollows Deepika and Ranveer
Adding to the drama, Farah Khan also unfollowed Ranveer Singh, while Ranveer continues to follow her. Neither party has issued a public statement, but fans are connecting the dots with Farah’s recent comments.
Farah Khan’s Subtle Digs in Vlogs
The tension allegedly stems from Farah’s remarks in her YouTube vlogs, where she appeared to take playful jabs at Deepika’s work routine.
- During a visit to actress Radhikka Madan, Farah spoke about tough auditions, adding: “Aise tapke hi toh sona banta hai (this is how gold is made),” which some fans linked to Deepika’s reputed work style.
- In another vlog at Rohit Saraf’s home, she joked: “Deepika Padukone ab sirf 8 ghanta shoot karti hai, usko show pe aane ka time nahi hai,” sparking chatter online.
While these comments were made in a light tone, fans believe they were indirect digs at Deepika’s “eight-hour workday” rule.
Deepika Padukone’s Recent Film Exits
Speculation intensified after Deepika walked out of major projects including Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Spirit and Kalki 2 with Prabhas. Reports suggest schedule disagreements, salary, and profit-sharing were behind her decisions.
These professional moves, coupled with Farah’s remarks, have now raised questions about whether Deepika’s choices are straining her personal industry ties as well.
What Lies Ahead?
Despite the chatter, both women remain influential in Bollywood. Deepika has multiple big-ticket projects lined up, while Farah continues to grow her digital presence with engaging vlogs. Whether this unfollow signals a real rift or just a social media anomaly remains to be seen.
