Not the one to shy away from public display of affection, Ranveer Singh gave a special shout out to rumoured girlfriend Deepika Padukone at the IIFA ceremony, saying she makes him the happiest.
While accepting his best actor honour at the 17th IIFA awards here for Bajirao Mastani, the actor could not resist himself from mentioning Deepika, calling her a "special person".
"There is another special person I must thank. I was moved by her performance. She is the Leela to my Ram, Mastani to my Bajirao and I don't know what's next. Girl, you are so fine. Nothings makes me more happier than you, I mean winning an awards here with you," Ranveer said.
Earlier in the evening, Deepika performed to her songs from Bajirao Mastani-- Mohe Rang Do Laal, Deewani Mastani and also Bajne De Dhadak Dhadak, which featured Ranveer.
Ranveer could not contain his excitement to see Deepika's power-packed performance on the number and stood up cheering her as she finished her set.

She thanked several people including writers and the unsung heroes of the film industry like the technicians. But before leaving the stage she did not forget to take a moment and thank the "special person" in her life.
"I want to thank Juhi (Chaturvedi, Piku writer) who made my performance worthwhile. I thank all spot boys, light men who work so hard behind the scenes. I also thank my team and that special person, you know who you are," the actress said.
