Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh tied the knot last year in a fairytale destination wedding at Lake Como in Italy. The couple tied the knot after dating for almost six years and now after their marriage pregnancy rumours are afoot. However, in a recent interview, Deepika chose to address these rumours and slammed the speculations saying, “It will happen when it has to happen.

During the interview to a recent portal, Deepika said, “Motherhood trumps being married. That's what I hear from people who have had children. Of course, it will happen at some point but no, I think it is unfair to put women through that, to put a couple through that. I guess the day we stop asking the questions is when we will bring about change."

Deepika said that women should not be pressured in getting pregnant after getting married and called for social change. She is currently shooting for her maiden production venture Chhapaak that is directed by Meghna Gulzar. It stars Vikrant Massey in the lead opposite Deepika. Chhapaak is based on the life of acid attack survivor Laxmi Agarwal and her partner Alok Pandit. Deepika will be seen in heavy prosthetics and a disfigured face to resemble Laxmi’s in the film. Chhapaak is slated to release on January 10, 2020.
