Bollywood star Deepika Padukone has finally responded to social media chatter questioning her silence on husband Ranveer Singh’s blockbuster Dhurandhar: The Revenge, delivering a sharp and witty reply that has now gone viral.
Deepika’s Viral Reply Stuns Social Media
The controversy began when fans noticed that Deepika had not publicly celebrated the massive success of Dhurandhar: The Revenge. An Instagram page even ran a poll asking whether her silence was a “calculated snub” or just overanalysis by fans.
Jumping into the comments, Deepika shut down speculation with a bold response: “I watched it way before any of you did. Now who is the joke on?”
Her sassy remark quickly grabbed attention, with fans praising her for addressing trolls directly.
Not the First Time She Supported the Film
Despite the recent speculation, this is not the first time Deepika has shown support for the film. Around its release in December 2025, she had shared a positive note on Instagram Stories, praising the film and encouraging audiences to watch it.
She also congratulated director Aditya Dhar along with the cast and crew for their work on the action-packed entertainer.
Proud Moment at Public Event
During a pre-birthday meet-and-greet event, Deepika openly expressed pride in the film’s success. She even asked fans if they had watched Dhurandhar, and when the crowd responded with a loud “yes,” she was seen smiling with visible excitement.
This further confirmed that her support for Ranveer’s film has been consistent, even if not always visible online.
