Deepika Padukone and Farah Khan, once known for their strong actor-director bond, have now unfollowed each other on Instagram, sparking speculation of a fallout. Farah played a pivotal role in Deepika’s career, launching her with Om Shanti Om and later directing her in Happy New Year.
The timing has fueled gossip, especially after Farah’s recent jibes about Deepika’s alleged preference for shorter, eight-hour workdays. On her YouTube vlogs, Farah joked that Deepika “doesn’t have time for our show anymore,” remarks many fans now believe carried deeper meaning.
Reports also suggest Deepika’s recent exits from Kalki 2 and Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Spirit were linked to disputes over high fees, profit-sharing demands, and limited shooting hours. In an industry built on long, unpredictable schedules, such conditions are seen as challenging for big productions.
Adding to the intrigue, Farah also unfollowed Ranveer Singh, though he still follows her. Neither Deepika nor Farah has made an official statement, but the optics suggest their once-close personal and professional relationship has soured, leaving fans both surprised and disappointed.
