Before moving on to the story itself, I want to conduct a survey with you guys. Please take the time to go through my questions below and answer it to the best of your ability without bias and utmost sincerity. It will be very helpful for my ride ahead, waiting for your response.
1. Can you actually be friends with your ex after a painful break up? Maybe not immediately, but once you are in a better place with your emotions?
2. Why do you cheat in a relationship when you know you have the best partner with you?
3. If at all you find a friendship with your ex, can it be genuine like the one Ranbir - Deepika is portraying? Is that level of intimacy possible again? Won't there be any awkwardness?
4. When you fall in love with someone else when you are a relationship, does that mean the relationship you were in previously was fake or rather you did not actually love that partner? Or can you be in love with two people? Or put it in a better way, an attraction or affection for a new person can wipe away the old relationship which you were so sure about?
5. If at all you are able to strike a friendship with one of your ex, does that old memories pop in between the friendship? Can a pure platonic friendship be possible? Won't there be moments when you look into that person's eyes and feel at least 1 percent of what you felt before?
6. Can you completely get over a relationship which you had given everything from your side, even when you are in a satisfying new relation?
7. It is said if we are friends with ex it means we either never loved that person truly when in the relationship or we are still in love with that person; that love can be mature and over the romantic' phase. Do you agree or disagree and if so reasons?!
Now coming to Deepika Ranbir as such! You can continue to answer based on your personal experience, if you don't know Deepika - Ranbir equation.
8. We all know they broke up because he cheated. There was bitterness in between but now they are really good friends apart from being professional. So qtns:
A) Did Ranbir actually love Deepika even in the past since he did cheat on her?
B) If they still share such a deep connection, were they meant to end like that?
9. Deepika is supposedly Ranveer's girlfriend now. If Ranibr did have something left for Deepika, will he be able to be friends with Ranveer so casually? Or is he completely over her according to you?
10. One of my friends told me, it is largely because they are in a profession which demands such publicity and their PR team needs to exploit the tid bits to maximum. Hence the friendship is over hyped. When I come to think about it, on a closer look of their promotions for Yeh Jawani and Tamasha, there is a huge difference. In 2013 when they were promoting Yeh jawani, there was strain and indirect taunts behind the huge smiles between them. Deepika was mostly quiet and Ranbir was doing the talking and some answers were diplomatically left off and some anger tension did exist somewhere. The way Deepika at times looked at him still revealed feelings, or so it seemed to me!
But in 2015, again when they came together to promote Tamasha, it was totally different. They really seemed to be friends and not faking it for hype of the film. I say this because I felt they were eased out in each other's presence unlike last time. There were no taunts in fact they were each other's staunch support. All questions related to their private life were answered masterfully and in one voice by them. So does that mean, they have really moved on? And it's just the friendship today and that friendship as real as it is portrayed? Are they really the new gen lovers who can become friends over a break up?
11. If so, then how sure are you that there is no love remaining between them but just friendship? You can rate it in percentage, like 100 percent, 90 percent sure or 50 percent sure or not still sure!
12. Why do you think Ranveer Singh is not at all insecure about Ranbir-Deepika even when media is churning up stories each day?
a) Because he is deeply in love with her and has immense trust on her
b) Because Deepika and Ranveer are clear about their relationship and what they mean to each other hence there is no reason for insecurity
c) Because he is sure Deepika will never take Ranbir back even if he approaches her?
d) Because he knows Deepika would never do that which she had received in the past?
e) Because he is a new gen lover boy who can give his girlfriend the space she needs
13. Why do you think he left Katrina? For his career salvation or because of family pressure or unable to destroy a beautiful relation by staying longer with her or simply he could not adjust into a life with her anymore? If he loved her, wouldn't he try? Or 7 years of try was enough and he quit? What do you think of his decision to call it quits? Did he do right by himself? By Katrina?
14. At the end of the day, what do you think of a girl like Deepika?
a) She will always love Ranbir Kapoor in her heart and might go back to him if he comes to her? The abla nari type.
b) She hates him or is over him now and Ranbir Kapoor doesn't matter to her, not even as a friend! Ranveer is her world and will be. She is a girl with self respect and would never trust Ranbir again. The kind of a strong opinionated individualistic girl.
c) She will always have a special place in her heart for Ranbir. But will never go back to him even if he wants her because she values relationships and she loves Ranveer for what he has given her. But she will always be a friend to Ranbir and he will always be a special part of her life, if not publically at least within her heart.
15. What do you think of Ranbir?
a) He is a Casanova
b) A commitment phobic
c) A confused soul regarding relationships under the impact of his parents' relationship
d) A good friend, but not a good boyfriend
e) Not a good boyfriend but maybe someday a good husband
f) A good artist, but not a good boyfriend, husband material.
g) A talented man and good at heart person misjudged badly because of one mistake in life!
16. What do you think of Katrina?
a) An opportunist
b) A gold digger in hunger of Mrs. Tag whether Khan or Kapoor!
c) A girl who helplessly fell in love above social norms!
d) A girl who kept trying in both of her relations and came out empty handed
e) A girl who made wrong choices for life partner both the times
