Ranveer Singh once shared his desire to be a father and have a daughter like his wife, Deepika Padukone, during his quiz show ‘The Big Picture’. He told a contestant, "I’m married and hope to have kids in the next 2-3 years. Your sister-in-law was such a cute baby. I look at her baby photos daily and tell Deepika, 'Give me a baby like this, and my life will be set.' I’m already shortlisting names."
