Exclusive: Katrina Kaif’s reaction to the ‘engagement ring’ buzz

We spoke to the Bang Bang heroine’s friend who spilled the beans on what the actress thought about the marriage rumours

 

 

 

Did she or didn’t she exchange rings with Ranbir Kapoor in London ? That’s the question on everyone’s mind in B-town circles. Ever since Katrina Kaif returned from the New Year trip, common friends of RK and Kat have been heard speculating about a happy news being announced by the Kapoor family in the near future. Will there be a press conference announcing the news or will Katrina and Ranbir just walk out of their Bandra house showing off their rings?

  

Recently during her visit to wish happy birthday to her friend Farah Khan, Katrina was spotted stepping out of the building with one hand in her pocket. Immediately there was talk and chatter that she had an engagement ring, which she was hiding from the photogs. After that her Umang performances on Friday night  came under the scanner, where Phantom heroine was spotted wearing a big fat shiny ring. 

Our source tells us that Kat is highly amused with these constant speculations about her marriage. “She will wear an engagement ring when the time is ready. And it will be for the world to see. She won’t just randomly attend some event wearing it. There is a plan in place in the Kapoor family as far as Ranbir and Katrina go and it will be known to everyone in due time.”

The source also adds that RK and Katrina have indeed exchanged rings, but want to keep it

Deepika Padukone to marry Ranveer Singh?

Our in-house astro expert Shradha Salla predicts the future of Bollywood’s favourite couple

Though everyone knows that Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh are in a relationship, they have always shied away when questioned about their affair. A few days ago, we reported how Ranveer confessed about his feelings for his ladylove 

when he appeared on the AIB Knockout along with bestie Arjun Kapoor. That’s when we at BollywoodLife thought of checking about the future of the Ram-Leela jodi. Here’s what our astro expert has to say about it…

# Deepika and Ranveer are cupid’s favourite couple. Individually both are ruled by strong planetary positions. Deepika is number 5 person, ruled by Mercury which brings a sense of balance, focus and dedication to everything she does. On the other hand, Singh is ruled by Venus which is all about love, passion, entertainment and following your heart.

# Because of the combination of their energies, the two have a very practical approach towards their relationship.

# From Deepika’s birthday till July, both of them are influenced by the Moon. The Moon’s energy makes people very emotional, sentimental and attached, so if they both balance their relationship, we might just hear some good news based on a stronger commitment.

# Though it’s a bit early for marriage, but it is definitely on both their minds , the only worry here is that the Moon’s energy makes one very moody, so daily issues and small fights should not be prolonged as that can cause irritation.

# As time passes, Ranveer is going to become very serious in the relationship but Deepika might show some inconsistency. On the lighter side, pink is a good colour for both of them to wear when they are around each other. This will help their relationship flourish.
