Deepika Padukone and Amrita Rao share ecstatic bond
It’s nothing new to get surprised over B’town connections.
It happens quite often. One such insignificant bond has recently come to light amid Deepika Padukone and Amrita Rao.
Though they’ve navigated very different paths in the entertainment industry, the two actresses share more than just talent and grace. It was in 2019, that an unique family connect rooted in their shared Konkani heritage that brought them together and has since blossomed into a warm camaraderie that continues to thrill fans.
For those unversed over the origin of this serendipitous bond, it all happened when Deepika Padukone attended her cousin brother’s lavish Konkani wedding in Mumbai. Interestingly, he tied the knot with Amrita Rao’s cousin sister. This family connect sparked a new and heartwarming relationship amid Deepika and Amrita. The two were seen warmly embracing and even posing for a joyful photo with their husbands, Ranveer Singh and RJ Anmol.
At an event, Amrita Rao clarified her connect to Deepika Padukone, explaining that they both belong to the Chitrapur Saraswat community—a small Konkani-speaking group from Karnataka, often mistaken for the Konkan region in Maharashtra. She noted that the community has produced several notable names in the film industry, including Shyam Benegal, Guru Dutt, Isha Koppikar, and Deepika herself. Given how closely knit the community is, many members are interrelated.
The recent marriage between Deepika’s cousin and Amrita’s cousin became a special occasion that brought their families—and the wider community—closer.
While Deepika Padukone is married to actor Ranveer Singh, Amrita Rao found her life partner in popular radio jockey Anmol Sood, widely known as RJ Anmol. Deepika and Ranveer are parents to daughter Dua, Amrita and Anmol are parents to son Veer.
Even when Deepika and Ranveer are often hailed as one of Bollywood’s ultimate power couples, Amrita Rao and RJ Anmol are adored for being one of the industry’s cutest pairs. The two couples also shared an ecstatic moment as Deepika and Ranveer joined Amrita and Anmol to celebrate the launch of the latter’s book, ‘Couple Of Things’.
Coming together more as close friends than relatives, the four posed for an adorable photo that instantly won over fans and lit up social media.
