Ranveer Singh has THIS to say about Deepika Padukone joining Cannes jury

In case you don’t know, Deepika Padukone is a part of the competition jury at the Cannes Film Festival this year. Deepika Padukone will be joining French actor Vincent Lindon, Rebecca Hall, Noomi Rapace, Italian actor-director Jasmine Trinca, and directors Asghar Farhadi, Ladj Ly, Jeff Nichols, and Joachim Trier at the jury panel. Ranveer Singh is beyond happy for his wife.

Speaking with Film Companion, Ranveer said, “I am so happy I had to break out into a dance. I was like ‘waah yaar, people want you to be the person who decides which is the better film.’ That’s huge.”

The Padmaavat actor then joked, “I mean I thought to myself, ‘yaar, mera kabhi number aayega kya. Mujhe kabhi bithayenge kya jury-vury pe? Aaj tak kisi ne bulaya nahi hai, kisi jury pe, ki aap decide karo kiska better hai performance.”
