Being the most awaited season, the first episode couldn’t get any better as star-couple Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh come together for the first time ever on the Koffee couch, spilling the beans on their marriage, proposal and more.

Deepika and Ranveer are all heart on the premiere of Koffee with Karan. Spread only love, no negativity on the show seems to be the motto of Season 8.

Wedding video – a masterstroke

To share their wedding movie for the first time on the show clearly helped the cause. At a time when newly married actors are releasing their custom-made wedding videos in cahoots with music companies and bridalwear designers (like Kiara Advani, Parineeti Chopra) or selling them to streaming platforms (like Nayanthara, Hansika Motwani), the five-year delay in the release of DeepVeer’s wedding movie deserves credit for actually keeping the things intimate. More than the wedding video itself, it’s Karan Johar’s instinctive reaction that actually struck a chord with those watching. For him to break into tears, give the couple a tight hug, and then explain how he feels deprived of a meaningful relationship – the reaction felt like the most organic part of the episode. If this was couple’s therapy, then making the therapist cry says more about his sensitivity, his emotional void, than about the marriage of the couple.
