The policy has been issued under the couple’s name itself- Ranveer Singh Bhavnani and Deepika Padukone.

Its real value can be assessed at the time of claim only.”
For all the uninitiated Deepika Padukone fans, the gorgeous Chennai Express star is really fond of water lilies. Hence, as per an India Today report, 12 florists from Florence have flown off to Italy to decorate the wedding venue! Amazing. isn't it? Also, Deepika is all excited for her wedding and can’t keep calm! In an interview with Rajdeep Sardesai on India Today India Tomorrow she had shared, “I'm excited in the same way as I'm excited about signing my next film. Marriage is something that I've always looked forward to in my life, as would any other girl." Further speaking about her inspiration towards a happy marriage, the Happy New Year star stated, “I've seen my parents do it so well and so successfully and I think for me, that's the way I would like my married life to be as well. My parents have a beautiful relationship. The way they have managed their professional life as well as being together as a family. They have set such amazing benchmarks that both I and my sister (Anisha Padukone) would like to follow."
In an interview with Rajeev Masand, Deepika had shared this about her marriage, “When it is time, I’ll know that it is the right time. I think as an institution, it is extremely important. That’s the way I have been brought up. It is extremely important for me to see myself like that. It is every girl’s dream.

At yet another interview conducted around the same time with Anupama Chopra, Deepika had stated,” It’s too much a part of my life for me to say I can walk away from it. But I think that home, family, parents, marriage is very important for me. Today I can see myself as a working wife or mother. I think I’d drive everybody around me mad if I didn’t work”.
Remember how Ranveer had said sometime back in an interview that he will be shouting from the rooftops if there are any wedding announcements in the future? Well, with some energy like his, we can totally imagine Ranveer doing that! Also, this is what he had said in the interview sometime back when fans were speculating a marriage soon, “It is the function of speculation – to exist. Nothing is official till it is made official and I am not a seer. I cannot say this will happen on this date in the future. Right now, we are both extremely busy working. Besides, she is also recuperating from back problems. So, we are quite occupied and distracted. So, if there is any announcement in the future, you will be hearing me shouting from the rooftops”.
We can't wait to get out hands on their pre-wedding pictures, how about you?
