metadata field not created after creation of resource

I created a Deployment wrapper Controller. But the template's metadata field is empty even though I've added labels/annotations to the resource.

apiVersion: test.domain/v1
kind: DhruvaDeployment
metadata:
  name: dhruvadeployment-sample
spec:
  deploymentSpec:
    selector:
      matchLabels:
        foo: bar
    template:
      metadata:
        labels:
          foo: bar
        annotations:
          test1: testAnnot
      spec:
        containers:
          - name: app
            image: busybox
            args:
              - /bin/sh
              - -c
              - "date; echo Hello from the Kubernetes cluster; trap : TERM INT; sleep infinity & wait"

https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/controller-tools may be a better place for this issue. But you can firstly provide your DhruvaDeployment definition and its CRD generated.
