A report on Forbes India has claimed that Ranveer Singh has quit endorsing a condom brand. “Both agreed to part ways amicably,” the portal quoted a source as saying. The source also went on to add that probably his marriage with Deepika Padukone is one of the reasons why the actor has said no to such advertisements.

The source also went on to quote that the negotiation did not work out. For the uninitiated, Ranveer Singh was the face of the brand Durex for the longest time. The tagline 'Do The Rex' has been associated with the actor for the longest time.

Founder of an eponymous branding consultancy firm Harish Bijoor told the portal, “Condom brands have this perennial issue.” He added, “The condom category is a promiscuous category. It is not one hinged to loyalty of any kind, leave alone the loyalty of its endorsers,” also mentioning, “No star is indispensable to brand. Even this shall pass on to an abler hand.”

Interestingly Durex also wished the couple Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh with a cheeky tweet. “We’ve got you covered. Congrats Deepika & Ranveer for officially putting a ring on it,” they had written.

Co-incidentally DeepVeer (as Deepika Padukone-Ranveer Singh fans call them) also appeared in an AC advertisement recently. On the work front, Deepika Padukone has begun shooting for her upcoming film 'Chhapaak', directed by Meghna Gulzar, which is based on the life of acid attack survivor Laxmi Agarwal. Meanwhile Ranveer Singh is filming Kabir Khan's 83, which is based on the 1983 World Cup win. Ranveer plays the role of cricketer and captain during the win, Kapil Dev.
