Hello Farroh,
It might happen if you parse the deadline date incorrectly in the onTaskLoading event handler. You need to make sure that the date format is correct:

gantt.attachEvent("onTaskLoading", function (task) {
  if (task.deadline)
    task.deadline = gantt.date.parseDate(task.deadline, "xml_date");
  return true;
});

It is hard to suggest what else might be wrong as I couldn’t reproduce the issue locally and I don’t see your code.
Here is a working sample:
