Deepika rang in her 40th birthday on January 5, and ahead of the milestone, she hosted a fan meet in December to interact with her admirers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUniverse, my stars, or my good karma \u2014 whatever you call it \u2014 Deepika Padukone invited me once again for a very special, intimate meet &amp; greet. This happened for the 4th time, yet jitna mile, utna hamesha kam hi lagta hai (no matter how much you meet her, it always feels like too little),\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The fan continued, \u201cThis time, I took my mom along with me. Staying with me, she also slowly became a fan of Deepika. When I told her that we were going to meet Deepika, she said, \u201cChal, khota bolu nakos\u201d (Don\u2019t lie), \u201cEvdhya vela bhetalas, mala kadhi nahi nelas\u201d (You met her so many times, but never took me along). But when she actually met Deepika, she was completely stunned.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Describing his mother\u2019s takeaway after meeting with Deepika, he wrote, \u201cShe was almost in tears when DP held her hand. She was literally lost in that moment \u2014 and when Deepika thanked her for the gift, my mom couldn\u2019t hold back her emotions. (My mom had gifted Deepika special handmade Puran Poli). She walked away with tears in her eyes \u2014 and honestly, every fan can relate to that moment, the emotions we go through after meeting a diva like her.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOnce again, thank you so much, DP, for such an amazing meet &amp; greet and the delicious food. Though my mom missed all the food because it was her Margashish Gurvar fast. Thank you @dhiirraj.13 @fionadsouza14 and @aashianahluwalia for make this happen! Thank you for everything, and Happy Birthday @deepikapadukone. This is a moment that my mom and I will never forget,\u201d he wrote while concluding the post.<\/p>\n<p>Social media users were moved by the video and flooded the comment section with praise for the actor.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m in tears now, this is so heartwarming,\u201d one wrote, with another sharing, \u201ckaki is the sweetest!
