The rumor mill is back to high speed spinning in Bollywood! According to the latest B-town buzz, Deepika Padukone has dumped Ranbir Kapoor for her “Karthik Calling Karthik” co-star Farhan Akhtar!

The much-married Farhan refuses to comment on Ranbir and Deepika.

According to Farhan, there’s nothing to clarify about his friendship with Deepika. “Nobody suspects when I SMS my film director or my director of photography. But somehow, if you SMS your co-actor, people start raising eyebrows. I don’t get affected by it as people will say what they have to say,” says Farhan.

Farhan and Deepika bonded well while shooting for Karthik Calling Karthik. And the director has a sweet message for his friend.

There have been numerous instances when actors get so much involved with their roles that they enter the bleak, dark world of depression. Such was the case with Dilip Kumar, when he worked in ‘Devdas’ and Guru Dutt while making ‘Pyasa’. Perfectionist Aamir is said to have suffered from anxiety about his roles and now it is director-actor-singer Farhan Akhtar, who went through a low phase in life while working for his upcoming film, ‘Karthik Calling Karthik’.

Farhan Akhtar plays an intense character in the film and in order to do justice to the role, farhan  locked himself in his house for eight days and refused to meet or interact with anyone to prepare for his role.

After realizing that he was losing his balance, Farhan took a two-week long holiday overseas and hit the gym, to come back to his normal self. Now, the actor is much better and he is making sure that he keeps up with his family and friends.

Farhan Akhtar and Deepika Padukone were made to dance on the streets of Kochi when they were shooting there recently for their film Karthik Calling Karthik. A group of 20-25 youngsters landed at the Kochi Fort where they were shooting and did not allow them to shoot until both Deepika and Farhan danced with them to the tunes of Rock On!!.

Farhan and Deepika, who are both extremely shy, refused at first. However, the crowd went crazy and did not allow them to shoot. They started making a noise and they were so loud that it was impossible to concentrate on the shoot. Finally both of them had to agree. The crowd piped down and left only after Farhan and Deepika danced for at least 10 minutes with them.
