We caught up with Deepika Padukone at the Idea Filmfare Awards 2009
unveiling event at a Mumbai star hotel. The beautiful actress was
missing boyfriend Ranbir Kapoor at the event.
When asked about Ranbir's absence from the event she replied, "You'll have to ask the organizers that".
Talking about her recent debacle Chandni Chowk To China, Deepika
stated, "I would still count it as a great experience. If you work hard
on a film or anything and then it doesn't do well, you are obviously
disappointed but it was a great experience for me. I learnt a lot from
it. It's an experience that pushes me to better myself and my
performances."
Speaking about her Imtiaz Ali film, Love Aaj Kal with Saif Ali Khan,
she said, "Imtiaz Ali was always on my wish-list of directors to work
with and I am glad I am working with him so soon in my career. It was
fantastic working with Saif. He is brilliant yet he needs to be taken
care of like a child. My character in the film, Meera, is a modern yet
traditional girl. She is practical yet emotional in matters of the
heart. I think youngsters will relate very well to the love story in
the film."
Deepika has also made a small appearance with her debut film hero Shah
Rukh Khan in coming Friday's release, Billu Barber. Recalling his
shooting experience for the same, the tall beauty said, "I shot for
three days for Billu Barber shooting the song Love Mera Hit Hit. It
actually brought back memories of Om Shanti Om for me. In fact even the
caterer, Muthuswamy was the same. Farah and SRK are like family to me
and I would do anything for them."
Finally when we asked her plans for Valentine's Day? she cleverly
replied, "I am spending the day with my parents."
