on Nov 15, 2016
Deepika Padukone will soon be seen as Queen Padmavati in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s next magnum opus. Talking about the film and calling her titular role in the film an extremely difficult one, Deepika said, "I don't feel I have completed nine years, I feel I have just started off. I feel I have a lot more to give and I think I am ready for more challenging roles and films, and I am excited about one of those experiences, as 'Padmavati' is going to be extremely difficult. But I am ready for that experience and journey," she told reporters. Deepika will also be making her Hollywood debut with the movie xXx: The Return of Xander Cage opposite Vin Diesel which has already garnered a lot of attention worldwide. The Bajirao Mastani star was also happy to talk about her debut film Om Shanti Om being made into a Japanese musical. "They are making it into a play and the Japanese people loved Shantipriya (her role in the movie). The premiere of the musical is going to be in July next year. Most probably, Farah Khan and I would be going together for that," she said.
