Ask a group of Bollywood fans to name the most electric actor of his generation, and Ranveer Singh’s name usually arrives before the question is finished. But the same curiosity that made him a star has also turned his personal life into a swirl of search queries — his health, his past relationships, even his “first wife.” This guide sorts those questions into what’s documented and what’s rumor, with dated milestones and named sources.

Age (2025): 40 ·

Eight rows of biography, one pattern: the documented record stays consistent across entertainment outlets, even when the search queries around it do not.
| Label | Value |
|---|---|
| Full name | Ranveer Singh Bhavnani (Times Now profile) |
| Date of birth | July 6, 1985 (Times Now profile) |
| Age (2025) | 40 |
| Birthplace | Mumbai, India (Fincash (finance website)) |
| Profession | Actor |
| Spouse | Deepika Padukone (m. 2018) |
| Children | 2 (daughter born 2021, son born 2025) |
| Notable achievement | Three films crossed $10M+ at the North American box office |
The pattern: the documented record holds firm, while the search queries keep shifting.
What is the illness of Ranveer Singh?
There is no official or medical record of Ranveer Singh having a chronic illness. The “Ranveer Singh illness” search mostly traces back to two separate public health scares.
In September 2013, while filming in West Bengal, he was hospitalized with dengue (Mumbai Mirror (Mumbai daily)). A contemporaneous report said his platelet count was not improving and that he was kept in isolation (Mumbai Mirror (Mumbai daily)). Nearly a decade later, The News Minute reported that Singh experienced an anxiety attack at the NMACC launch in 2023 (The News Minute (Indian digital news outlet)). Singh has not publicly confirmed that specific episode.
- Documented infection: dengue (2013).
- Documented report: anxiety episode at the NMACC launch (2023).
- Documented chronic condition: none in public sources.
The health query sounds urgent, but the evidence behind it is two isolated events separated by ten years.
The implication: “Ranveer Singh illness” is better treated as a search artifact than a medical file. A chronic condition would require consistent reporting from credible outlets, and that reporting does not exist.
Who was Ranveer Singh’s ex before Deepika?
No credible coverage names anyone as Ranveer Singh’s ex-girlfriend or ex-wife. Entertainment coverage consistently treats Deepika Padukone as his only publicly confirmed serious relationship, and the two married in November 2018 (DailyHunt (news aggregator)).
- Confirmed spouse: Deepika Padukone, married 2018.
- Confirmed ex-partners: none identified in the credible coverage gathered here.
- Rumored ex: Anushka Sharma — unconfirmed by either party.
Who was Ranveer Singh’s first wife?
“First wife” queries produce one reliable answer: Deepika Padukone. There is no record of an earlier marriage.
Ranveer Singh has been married once. He and Deepika married in a private ceremony in Italy on November 14, 2018 (NDTV (Indian news outlet)).
The pattern: every credible profile treats Deepika Padukone as Ranveer Singh’s only serious relationship. The “ex” and “first wife” search terms are better explained by algorithmic curiosity than by documented history.
What is the age gap between Deepika and Ranveer?
The age gap is commonly described as about five to six months, with Ranveer older. He was born on July 6, 1985, and Deepika Padukone was born on January 5, 1986 (True North Brief (entertainment biography site)).
- Ranveer Singh: born July 6, 1985 — age 40 in 2025.
- Deepika Padukone: born January 5, 1986 — age 39 in 2025.
- Difference: approximately 6 months, Ranveer older.
Who proposed first, Deepika or Ranveer?
The proposal story is widely reported as a private 2017 dinner moment, but the hard fact attached to this couple is the 2018 wedding.
According to entertainment coverage, the proposal came first, with the wedding following on November 14, 2018 (NDTV (Indian news outlet)).
The trade-off: fans who want a dramatic “who proposed” story get one from media accounts, but the verified anchor remains the wedding date.
Who is richer, Deepika or Ranveer?
No official net worth exists for either actor, and the estimates for Ranveer Singh alone do not line up. NDTV places his 2026 wealth between Rs 350 crore and Rs 400 crore (NDTV (Indian news outlet)), Koimoi puts it near Rs 400 crore (Koimoi (film finance tracker)), and Fincash estimates Rs 362 crore-plus (Fincash (finance website)). An older Times Now profile reported a number closer to $15 million (Times Now (Indian news channel)).
- NDTV: Rs 350–400 crore (2026 estimate).
- Koimoi: ~Rs 400 crore (2026 estimate).
- Fincash: Rs 362 crore-plus (2026 estimate).
- Times Now: ~$15 million (older profile).
A spread that wide means no one actually knows the number; any “who’s richer” verdict is a headline, not an audit.
The takeaway: Ranveer Singh is clearly in the top tier of Indian entertainer earnings, but the gap between estimates is larger than most annual salaries. Direct comparisons with Deepika Padukone cannot be made from the cited data because no comparable verified figure for her appears in these sources.
What is Deepika Padukone diagnosed with?
Deepika Padukone has spoken publicly about being diagnosed with depression and anxiety in 2014, and she founded The Live Love Laugh Foundation as part of that disclosure (True North Brief (entertainment biography site)). It is the only documented medical diagnosis tied to either spouse in this article.
What age did Deepika conceive?
- First child (daughter): born September 2021 — Deepika was 35.
- Second child (son): born December 2025 — Deepika was 39.
Those ages follow from her January 5, 1986 birth date and the birth dates reported in the timeline below.
Is Deepika Padukone 100% Indian?
“100% Indian” mixes citizenship with ethnicity. The documented answer: she was born in Denmark to Indian parents and holds Indian citizenship.
Biographical coverage describes Deepika Padukone as an Indian actress of Indian ethnicity, born in Denmark (True North Brief (entertainment biography site)).
The implication: the couple’s health story is mostly about mental health, and the “diagnosed with” query tracks back to a public disclosure, not a hidden condition.
Put the cited estimates side by side and the pattern is clear: the couple’s birth dates are fixed, while the money numbers are movable.
| Dimension | Ranveer Singh | Deepika Padukone |
|---|---|---|
| Date of birth | July 6, 1985 | January 5, 1986 |
| Reported net worth (2026) | Rs 350–400 crore | No verified estimate in cited sources |
| Reported per-film fee | Rs 30–40 crore | No verified estimate in cited sources |
| Documented health disclosure | Dengue hospitalization in 2013 | Depression and anxiety, publicly discussed |
| Children | Two: daughter (2021), son (2025) | |
The pattern: the numbers for Ranveer vary widely, while Deepika’s figures remain absent from these sources.
Timeline: the documented record
- September 2013 — Hospitalized with dengue while filming in West Bengal (Mumbai Mirror (Mumbai daily)).
- 2017 — Proposed to Deepika Padukone, according to entertainment coverage (Fincash (finance website)).
- December 2025 — Second child (son) born (NDTV (Indian news outlet)).
The pattern: the documented timeline is short and stable — a debut, a long relationship, a marriage, two children, and one hospitalization anchor the public record.
Confirmed facts vs. what’s unclear
Confirmed facts
- Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone married in 2018.
- They have two children: a daughter (2021) and a son (2025).
- Ranveer Singh was hospitalized with dengue in 2013.
- Three of his films have crossed $10 million in North America.
What’s unclear
- Whether any ex-girlfriend or first wife exists before Deepika.
- Whether the 2023 anxiety episode recurred or required treatment.
- The exact net worth of either partner.
In their own words
“Ranveer created a safe space for me during my mental-health struggles.”
— Deepika Padukone, as reported by The News Minute (Indian digital news outlet)
Ranveer Singh described feeling “helpless” while Deepika Padukone went through her mental-health struggles.
— Ranveer Singh, as reported by The News Minute (Indian digital news outlet)
The pattern: both partners have described the same period from different sides — one needing safety, one feeling helpless to provide it. That is the closest the public record comes to a shared emotional timeline.
For fans and news readers, the distinction is simple: the documented Ranveer Singh is a top-tier Indian actor, married since 2018, father of two, with one resolved dengue hospitalization in 2013 and a reported anxiety episode in 2023. The rumored Ranveer — mystery illness, hidden ex-wife, exact net worth — exists mainly in unverified search queries. For anyone Googling these questions, the practical choice is clear: trust dated milestones and named entertainment outlets over headline-driven speculation, or end up relaying rumors as fact.
