Throughout her career, Deepika Padukone has been embroiled in a number of high-profile public disputes involving movie releases, political appearances, and private remarks:

Film & Project Controversies

• Padmaavat / Padmavati (2017–2018): The Rajput Karni Sena and other right-wing organizations claimed that the movie misrepresented Queen Padmavati’s historical background. The title was changed from Padmavati to Padmaavat as a result of violent threats, bounty announcements against Padukone, and vandalism during the protests.

• Pathaan “Besharam Rang” Song (2022): Protests against her wearing a saffron-colored bikini began when the song Besharam Rang was released. A number of political figures and religious groups demanded that the movie be boycotted because they believed it offended religious feelings.

• Chhapaak TikTok Promotion (2020): Deepika took part in a TikTok challenge in which she asked one influencer to replicate three of her movie “looks,” including her acid-scarred makeup, in order to promote the acid-attack survivor biopic Chhapaak. Many people denounced the stunt for being inconsiderate to victims of acid attacks.

Political & Social Media Backlash

• JNU Campus Visit (2020): She went to Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) in Delhi a few days prior to Chhapaak’s discharge to express support for students who were assaulted on campus. While admirers praised her fortitude, her silent presence provoked a heated political debate that resulted in boycott calls that went viral.

• Vogue “My Choice” Video (2015): starred in a Homi Adajania-directed Vogue India video that promoted women’s emancipation. The video’s lines on a woman’s decision to have sex outside of marriage, in particular, caused a lot of backlash on social media because they were perceived as supporting adultery rather than real gender equality. Later on, she explained that the particular statement did not reflect her own opinions.

Legal & Industry Incidents

• NCB Drug Probe Questioning (2020): The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) called and questioned actress Sushant Singh Rajput after drug-related WhatsApp communications reappeared during the investigation into her death. She was not the subject of any official charges or evidence that would have implicated her.

• Koffee With Karan Statements (2010 & 2023):

  • 2010: Her suggestions on the talk program that Ranbir Kapoor should “endorse a condom company” after their breakup garnered significant media attention.
    

  • 2023: Her remarks about how she and husband Ranveer Singh engaged in “casual dating” and saw other people early in their relationship triggered heated online discussions about marriage and relationships at the Season 8 premiere.
