Partnership facts

• Deepika was still a newcomer when Ayan Mukerji cast her opposite Ranbir in Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani. She later said she was terrified of Ranbir on the first day — he was already a star, and she felt she had to prove herself.
• In Tamasha, Ranbir and Deepika shot the entire 'Agar Tum Saath Ho' sequence in one continuous take. No cuts. The director Imtiaz Ali said they fed off each other's silences — Ranbir would pause, Deepika would hold her breath, and the scene just breathed.
• Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani made 'Badtameez Dil' a wedding anthem across India. But the real ripple: it cemented the 'Ranbir-Deepika' pairing as the go-to casting for any film about young love and self-discovery — every producer after that wanted them for their next rom-com.
• During the making of Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, Ranbir and Deepika were already broken up. They didn't speak off-camera for most of the shoot. Ayan Mukerji had to direct them separately for emotional scenes — and then edit the footage to make it look like they were in love.
• Ranbir once said about Deepika: 'She is the only actress I've worked with who can make me nervous. She has this intensity that forces you to raise your game.' He said this during a Tamasha promotional interview.
