Bollywood icon Deepika Padukone, who turned 40 today, celebrated her birthday with fans at a special meet-and-greet event in Mumbai on the eve of her big day. While the evening was filled with cheers and warm wishes, it was one spontaneous moment that stole the spotlight — her joyful reaction to the phenomenal success of Dhurandhar, starring her husband Ranveer Singh.
The Viral Moment Everyone Is Talking About
A now-viral clip from the event shows Deepika being asked by the host whether she had watched Dhurandhar. The audience instantly erupted in applause and cheers. Clearly moved by the excitement, Deepika responded with her now-famous playful hair flip, followed by an exuberant cheer — a subtle yet powerful celebration of the film’s triumph.
When the host jokingly remarked that he didn’t know they were allowed to talk about other films, Deepika smiled and replied,
“It’s all in the family.”
The light-hearted moment quickly took over social media.

- “She asked the audience if they watched Dhurandhar, and when everyone said yes and praised it, she did that iconic hair flip.”
