Most of the galm dolls would be turning green with envy, at just the mention of Deepika Padukone. After all, the girl’s got it all in practically no time at all when most have had to struggle for years. She was a star even before her release with King Khan. A year and a few months in the industry, and producers continue to pursue her with bagsful of roles and sacks foll of moolah, she has already done a YAshraj film and her recent film is with none other than Akshay Kumar. She is endorsing several products, is on every magazine cover…. Deep’s popularity has literally reached sky high, sh’s also the ambassador for Kingfisher Airlines!!
For someone who is young and new to the industry, this kind of fame and success can give one a harder kick than a dozen tequila shots….. often giving one an attitude which is very famous in HiFi-The I’ve arrived-and-I-know-it-all one! Very few mgiht take this as an opportunity to futher growth in theri field. “Yes, I’m very lucky that everything fell into place perfectly for me with my very first step in Hi Fi. But of course, that doesn’t mean I know everything. I have a long way to go and need to groom myself constantly to meet the expectations of my producers,” Says Deepika.
Coming from a typical Maharashtrian background all these things really do not affect her much. Her dad Prakash Padukone being very famous in his times has seen fame and that had never affected him. She certainly has not let success hit her head, and is here to do good work, and she is not going to give that up at any cost. “I never had any perception of the industry when I started off,” she claims, ” but I’m having a wonderful time here and I’m very happy with the kind of people I have met here and made friends with. I never imagined I would work with my favourite actor SRK, but then I got to work with Akshay Kumar also, and all this has been very exciting for me,” she explains.
That there, but her characters and roles are more or less similar. She is mostly looked upon as a glamorous girl, while when it comes to performance based roles, directors might look else where. There are plenty of young faces and new girls entering the filed, but that does not bother Deepika. “I strongly believe that nobody can be like me and I can’t be anyone else. The kind of performances I do, others can’t and what others do I won’t be able to do successfully. But there’ s room for everybody and I’m happy with whatever I’m getting,” says Deeps.
But there are times, she confesses when the media brings out something that is not true that irritates her. But being an actress, she knows that personal life is not all that personal. That’s the reason why she didn’t try to refute her affair with Ranbr Kapoor. I am truly in love with him and that’s why we decided not to hide our feelings from the public. Being in love is one of the loveliest feelings. It is also said that Ranbir’s mother Neetu Singh is supposedly not in favour of her son’s choice, but …..whether new girls come in or not, whether Neetu Singh approves of her or not, whether there is something between Ranbir and other girls or not,….Deepika knows how to handle it. Instant success has only made this smart chick smarter!!!!!!
