On the work front, Deepika Padukone will next be seen in Meghna Gulzar’s Chhapaak wherein she will play the role of an acid attack survivor.
Deepika Padukone is known for choosing the right script
at the right time and we say this because her filmography is proof of her
choices. From Yeh Jaawani Hain Deewani, Desi Boyz, Piku, Padmaavat and others,
Deepika has been part of successful films and when it comes to proving her
versatility, Deepika Padukone has entertained us with a variety of roles. From
the girl-next-door in Ayan Mukerji’s Yeh Jawaani Hain Deewani to a doting
daughter in Piku to Mastani in Bajirao Mastani, Deepika Padukone is an actor
par excellence.
Having tasted success at such an early age,
during a recent interview, Deepika Padukone was asked as to what goes through
her mind when she picks up a script and to that, Deepika said that she
continues to choose projects the same way she did 10 years ago and she
primarily follows her gut and heart. “When the narration finishes, I have to
feel butterflies in my stomach otherwise I don’t take up the film. The film has
to unsettle me,” shares Deepika. Be it a period drama like Padmaavat or slice
of life film like Piku and Yeh Jawaani Hain Deewani, what is important for her
as an actor is that she needs to feel challenged. “It does not have to be an
extremely intense film. Even when I chose a film like Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani
(2013), I had the same level of excitement because I had never played a
character like Naina before. I have to feel challenged. I have always listened
to that voice in my head,” shared Deepika.
