Deepika Padukone has said that she wants to star in a romance with Salman Khan. The actor is currently shooting an update of Romeo and Juliet with Ranveer Singh. She told the Hindustan Times: "Show me one person who doesn't want to work with Salman Khan! And now, let me tell you, I may have debuted with Shah Rukh Khan, but Salman was the first person to offer me a film.

"He spotted me way before Om Shanti Om, when I did my first Liril and Close Up ads. I had just hit the modeling circuit then. So the proposal is pending. I want to work in a romantic film with him, a nice love story. "I have always shown my fondness for him. He comes across as a very romantic person and that will reflect on-screen." Padukone also denied that she is romantically involved with her current co-star Singh.

She added: "Going out with someone for coffee or dinner is a normal thing among youngsters. I don't understand why such a fuss is being made about it. If I want to go out on a hundred dinner and coffee dates, I will go and no one has the right to question it. I am going about my life as a normal 26-year-old." The star replaced Kareena Kapoor in Ram Leela, reportedly after director Sanjay Leela Bhansali decided against having a married actor in the lead role. Singh has described Padukone as the "perfect" Juliet.
