The Ranveer and Deepika episode of the show had sparked considerable controversy. The couple openly discussed their relationship and marriage, with Deepika revealing that she initially wanted to remain single after experiencing difficult relationships. "Even if we were technically allowed to see other people, we would just keep coming back to each other," she disclosed, referring to her relationship with Ranveer.
