Deepika Padukone gives reason behind ‘no phone’ policy at her wedding

Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh got married in last November in Italy and since then the two have been shelling out major couple goals. Their fairytale wedding was very private, leaving everyone in a frenzy.

No photos from the ceremony were released after all the rituals had finished. There were special arrangements in place to prevent photos from the functions being leaked. Guests were not allowed to carry cell phones during any ceremony.

Deepika has finally addressed the issue and has revealed why they chose to keep the functions strictly private. “Privacy was secondary. The reason we asked our guests not to have cell phones was because we wanted them to be present in the moment,” she said, when asked about this.

“Usually, everyone is on their cell phones, capturing the moment. These moments should be in your mind and heart as they’re never going to come back. Every single guest, I kid you not, is so thankful,” Indian media reported.

“People who’ve never danced in their lives were on the dance floor. People who’ve never tasted alcohol were tasting wine. That’s how free people were. They were emotionally present there and they didn’t have any choice but to talk to each other,” she added.

Soon after getting married, Ranveer and Deepika started shooting for their pending projects. While, Ranveer is currently enjoying the success of his latest release ‘Simmba’, Deepika, will soon start shooting for Meghna Gulzar's ‘Chhapaak’, which is based on the life of acid attack survivor Laxmi Agarwal.
