Bipasha Basu Edits Comment on Deepika Padukone’s Daughter

Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh’s announcement of their younger daughter’s name has brought a personal moment between Deepika and her former co-star Bipasha Basu into focus. After the couple introduced their daughter as Devi Padukone Singh on Dussehra, Bipasha left a comment recalling that Deepika had previously told her she loved the name Devi. She later edited the comment, replacing the original message with a shorter reference to the name and a red heart emoji, according to Bollywood Hungama.

The change attracted attention because both actresses have daughters named Devi. However, neither the edited comment nor the available reporting establishes why Bipasha chose to change her wording.

What Did Bipasha Basu Initially Write?

Responding to Deepika and Ranveer’s family photograph on Instagram, Bipasha wrote: “So you were really serious when you told me you love the name Devi.” The message suggested that the two actresses had discussed the name during an earlier conversation.

Bipasha subsequently removed that longer comment and left a shorter message reading “Devi” followed by a red heart emoji, as reported by Bollywood Hungama on October 22, 2026.

The edit is a verifiable part of the published account, but the reason behind it remains unclear. It would be premature to interpret the change as evidence of disagreement, resentment or any issue between the two actors.

Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh Reveal Their Daughter’s Name

On October 20, 2026, Deepika and Ranveer shared a family photograph on social media and announced their younger daughter’s name as Devi Padukone Singh. Their post was captioned, “Of Love & Abundance,” alongside the child’s name in English and Hindi. The announcement came during Dussehra celebrations.

The photograph featured Deepika holding Devi, while Ranveer held their elder daughter, Dua, who leaned towards her baby sister. The post offered a rare family moment shared publicly by the couple, who have generally kept their children’s lives private.

The couple welcomed their second daughter on September 19, 2026, according to coverage of their announcement. Their elder daughter, Dua Padukone Singh, was born in September 2024.

Why the Name Devi Has a Personal Connection for Bipasha?

Bipasha and her husband, actor Karan Singh Grover, named their daughter Devi Basu Singh Grover. They announced her birth in November 2022. The shared name explains the personal connection behind Bipasha’s response to Deepika’s announcement.

Deepika and Bipasha also have a professional connection. They appeared together in Bachna Ae Haseeno, the 2008 romantic comedy directed by Siddharth Anand and starring Ranbir Kapoor, with Minissha Lamba and Kunal Kapoor in supporting roles.

Their latest interaction recalls that earlier association, this time through a conversation about motherhood and a name that holds significance for both families.

The Celebrity Hour Take

The story illustrates how a brief social-media comment can become a news item when it connects two familiar public figures. Bipasha’s original message offered a glimpse into a conversation she says she had with Deepika, while the edited version left less of that exchange visible.

The important distinction is between what was reported and what remains unknown. The comment was reportedly changed, but there is no verified explanation for the edit and no confirmed evidence of a dispute between the actresses. Keeping that distinction clear allows the story to focus on the actual interaction without turning an ordinary social-media edit into an unsupported controversy.

Sources & Verification

This article draws on the supplied Bollywood Hungama report and cross-checks the naming announcement and the reported comment through coverage by NDTV and mid-day. The reason for Bipasha’s comment edit has not been independently established and is not presented as fact.
