New Year’s Eve didn’t come with fireworks or red carpets for Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh. Instead, the Bollywood power couple chose a courtside kind of celebration in New York — low-key, stylish and very them. The two were spotted at an NBA game at Madison Square Garden, watching the clash between the New York Knicks and the Atlanta Hawks. What followed was a fan moment that quickly travelled from NYC to desi timelines across the world. While most stars opt for glamorous New Year parties, Deepika and Ranveer seemed perfectly happy soaking in the energy of a packed stadium. Dressed sharp but relaxed, Deepika stood out in a black leather jacket paired with smokey eyes, while Ranveer stayed true to his cool-boy aesthetic in a black coat
and beanie. Their daughter, Dua, was not with them during the outing. Fans seated nearby first spotted the couple from a distance before finally getting the chance for selfies. Videos and pictures from the arena soon flooded social media, making the NBA outing one of the most talked-about celebrity sightings of New Year 2026. One fan, who shared photos and videos from the game, summed up the moment perfectly in a post that quickly went viral. They wrote, “POV- The universe understood the assignment ✨🙏🏽 @aseth12 this night happened all thanks to you! Love you so much bro 🙏🏽🫶🏽 If you know me, you know I’ve been obsessed with two Bollywood actresses all my life- Aishwariya Rai and Deepika Padukone. I’m definitely the type to be star stuck, my heart stopped for a few seconds when I saw @deepikapadukone and @ranveersingh ♥️♥️”
Fans praised how approachable the couple was, happily posing for selfies despite being on a private holiday. This NBA appearance comes amid Ranveer’s well-earned break following the massive success of Dhurandhar. Over the past week, the couple has been spotted celebrating Christmas in New York. Interestingly, neither Deepika nor Ranveer has shared any pictures from their New Year celebrations on their own social media yet. Still, fan pages have ensured the moments didn’t go unnoticed, offering glimpses of how the stars welcomed 2026, away from film sets.
