Former badminton player Prakash Padukone, father of Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone, recently opened up about his relationship with his son-in-law Ranveer Singh and shared his thoughts on the film Dhurandhar, which he recently watched and appreciated.

Prakash said that “It’s a great film. It’s a very well-made film with good acting by everybody. We felt there was a little bit too much violence, but the majority of people liked it, so I think that’s more important,” he told a newspaper.

Beyond films, Padukone also spoke warmly about his family bond with Ranveer Singh, revealing that both families share a close relationship and make it a point to spend quality time together whenever possible. 

According to Padukone, they try to go on holiday together at least once a year despite their busy schedules. Meanwhile, Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh are expecting their second baby, and the couple shared the joyous news on social media on April 19, 2026.
