Siddhartha-Deepika bond over marriage

22nd June 2011

Before your minds start working overtime and you jump to any conclusions, let us be clear. The super busy Deepika Padukone, squeezed time out of her tight schedule and attended Siddhartha Mallya's step-sister's wedding in Bali. She flew down to Bali from London, where she was shooting for 'Cocktail' with Saif Ali Khan.

Busy with their own work, both Siddhartha Mallya and Deepika Padukone weren't able to meet each other often, citing her back to back shooting schedules for her films like 'Aarakshan', 'Cocktail' and 'Desi Boyz'. Siddhartha too got busy, post the Indian Premier League and hence that left no time for the friends to meet and greet each other but when she learnt that Sid's step-sister was getting married, she decided to fly down to Bali and meet Sid as well as his family. Deepika is also close to Siddhartha Mallya's family, as she has been in a business collaboration with Sid's father Vijay Mallya's IPL team 'Royal Challengers Bangalore' and has been a regular visitor at family events.

Looks like the wedding bells ringing for someone else gave the love birds enough reason to get up, close and personal.
