Siddharth Mallya once said his rumoured girlfriend Deepika Padukone had "forgotten those expensive diamonds and luxurious bags he gifted to her" the actress replied, saying, "He asked me to pay the dinner bill"

However, her personal life, particularly her past relationships, often garners as much limelight as her professional achievements. Deepika is currently married to actor Ranveer Singh, but before this, she had been linked with several high-profile personalities, including Ranbir Kapoor, Yuvraj Singh, and Siddharth Mallya.

During her relationship with Siddharth Mallya, the couple was frequently seen together at IPL matches, social events, and dinner dates, which fueled widespread speculation about their romance.

Despite their public appearances, they rarely spoke about their relationship. However, the relationship took a tumultuous turn, leading to public spats and shocking accusations from both sides. Siddharth once labeled Deepika as a "crazy female," alleging that she refused to return the expensive gifts he had given her, including diamonds, luxurious bags, and other lavish items.

Siddharth's comments were quite direct: “Deepika is a crazy female; I told her that I’ll return her money once dad clears his debts and the government sets him free, but she was just not ready to settle down. She has forgotten the time I gifted her with expensive diamonds, luxurious bags, have spent huge on her vacations and hosted parties for her friends on her behalf.” These accusations painted a picture of a relationship marked by extravagant gestures and significant emotional turmoil.

In response, Deepika didn't hold back her own sentiments. She shared an incident from their dating period that left her feeling disgusted. According to Deepika, Siddharth once refused to pay the bill during a dinner date, insisting that she cover the cost. Reflecting on this moment, Deepika said, “I tried hard to make the relationship work, but his behaviour in recent times has been disgusting. The last time we met on a dinner date, he asked me to pay the bill. That was so embarrassing for me.” This incident highlighted the strain and discord that had developed between them.

Despite the acrimonious end to their relationship, there was a time when Siddharth Mallya had expressed admiration for Deepika. In an earlier interaction, he had praised her contributions to mental health awareness, calling her work inspiring. This acknowledgment contrasted sharply with the later accusations, showcasing the complex and multifaceted nature of their relationship.

Fast forward to the present, both Deepika and Siddharth have moved on with their lives. Deepika is enjoying a blissful marital life with Ranveer Singh, who she describes as the love of her life. Their marriage has been celebrated as one of Bollywood's most iconic and beloved unions. On the other hand, Siddharth Mallya has also found love again. On November 1, 2023, he announced his engagement to his girlfriend, Jasmine, via Instagram. He proposed to her at a Halloween party, and the engagement was marked by celebratory pictures that captured the couple's happiness.

The contrasting paths taken by Deepika and Siddharth post their breakup underscore the personal growth and new beginnings each has experienced. While their past relationship was marred by public spats and emotional outbursts, both have managed to find stability and love in their respective lives.
