Earlier he was averse to settling down and was commitment phobic, it all changed with Deepika. If you notice he even started being more expressive with his fashion after he started dating Deepika. He mentions how till 2012 or was it 2013, he was trying to fit in and was not being his real self in public. Deepika's acceptance of him for what he is gave him the self-confidence to be fearless. That has translated into him being a fearless actor too.
Like I said, her influence on him personally has been even more positive than professionally. She accepts him the way he is and does not demand that he change himself for her, this in itself is the best part about their bond.
