Om Shanti Om' girl Deepika Padukone is annoyed with the press for publish ing stories about her romantic link-ups, saying they will dent her reputation and cause future embarrassment.

"The media needs to be a little restrained. I am a simple girl and from a respectable family. And loose talk about me harms my reputation," Padukone, who will be seen in ‘Chandni Chowk to China', told IANS in an interview.

"One day, like any other girl, I intend to settle down and have children. How would those write-ups look at that time? I'm so glad I've found a man who comes from the same space and understands the pitfalls of sensational journalism."

Padukone, who was apparently seeing cricketer Yuvraj Singh at one time, is now reportedly set to tie the knot with Ranbir Kapoor.

Changing cars to throw off their pursuers, the two travelled hundreds of miles to knock on the doors of a New Delhi court to seek protection.

The love affair of Konedela Srija, the daughter of film star Chiranjeevi, briefly gripped India, where a deeply conservative society is still resisting the social change that economic progress brings.

Srija's story is the latest in a spate of high profile cases of defiance of conservative parents by children trying to become more independent and assertive - sometimes at a terrible price.

In several cases, runaway couples have sought protection from courts and even landed up at television studios, hoping that media coverage would win them a pardon from their families.
