On Tuesday, August 20, actress Deepika Padukone, who is expecting her first child in September, met badminton player Lakshya Sen at a Mumbai restaurant. Padukone, accompanied by her husband Ranveer Singh and his family, was seen dining at the venue. As she left, Padukone shared a warm hug with Lakshya Sen and extended her best wishes to him. Sen reciprocated by wishing Singh’s family before they departed.

A video from the evening captured Padukone, Sen, and Ranveer Singh's father engaged in conversation as they exited the restaurant. Padukone, in her final trimester, was stylishly dressed in a black bodycon dress paired with an oversized black blazer and completed her outfit with a black handbag. Earlier in the week, she was also spotted in a beige salwar kameez as she made her way to her car with her team.

Lakshya Sen recently returned from the Paris 2024 Olympics, where he made it to the semi-finals but was defeated by Malaysia's Lee Zii Jia in the bronze medal match.

Deepika Padukone publicly announced her pregnancy in February 2024 and has been open about her journey. The actress and Ranveer Singh, who married in Lake Como, Italy, in 2017, are eagerly anticipating the arrival of their first child.
