Om Shanti Om star Deepika Padukone is annoyed with the press for publishing stories about her romantic link-ups, saying they will dent her reputation and cause future embarrassment.
"The media needs to be a little restrained. I am a simple girl and from a respectable family. And loose talk about me harms my reputation," Deepika, who will be seen in Chandni Chowk To China , said in an interview.
"One day, like any other girl, I intend to settle down and have children. How would those write-ups look at that time? I'm so glad I've found a man who comes from the same space and understands the pitfalls of sensational journalism."
Deepika, who was apparently seeing cricketer Yuvraj Singh at one time, is now reportedly set to tie the knot with Ranbir Kapoor .
When being asked why she and beau Ranbir went public about their relationship, Deepika said: "Because this is the first time I've actually and truly fallen in love. Being in love is the loveliest feeling. When two people are getting close they need time to understand one another."
Both of them will be seen together for the first time on screen in Bachna Ae Haseeno .
On being asked what do she and Ranbir talk about, Deepika said, “Well...we do know what's going on in each other's careers. But otherwise we try to keep cinema out of our conversation. We try not to get into one another's workspace.”
