Bollywood power couple Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone celebrated their marriage with grand receptions after tying the knot in Italy. While the wedding itself was a private affair, the couple later hosted several receptions in India for friends, colleagues from the film industry, and members of the media.
During a recent podcast with Hindi Rush, paparazzo Snehkumar Zala shared his experience of covering the couple’s wedding festivities. He described how the actors treated photographers and media personnel with remarkable respect throughout the celebrations. According to Zala, the couple made sure that photographers were given time to capture pictures and were treated with warmth at each reception event.
He also revealed that the arrangements for the media were impressive. At the receptions, paparazzi were served food and sweets from a five-star hotel, ensuring they were well looked after during the long hours of coverage. The arrangements, he said, were well organised and made the experience enjoyable for photographers covering the event.
Zala added that the couple consistently maintains a positive relationship with the media. He noted that both actors usually greet photographers politely at public events and willingly pose for pictures, which has helped them build a friendly rapport with paparazzi over the years.
The photographer also mentioned similar hospitality during the wedding celebrations of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant, where paparazzi were invited along with their families and were given an opportunity to greet the couple personally on stage.
The revelations highlight how gestures of respect and appreciation from celebrities can create positive relationships with media professionals who regularly cover the entertainment industry.
