Quick session with Deepika

Quick session with Deepika| TheNewsTribe.com

Deepika Padukone has ruled 2015 by giving shots like ‘Piku’, ‘Bajirao Mastani’ and ‘Tamasha’ all which demanded unique roles from her and she did justice with every role. Another adorable thing of about this diva is that she is candid and warm with the media.

Times of India has had a quick conversation with her, a part of which is as follows.

Ranveer has completed five years in the industry. What was the first impression you had of him when you saw ‘Band Baaja Baaraat’? I hope you have seen the film…

I have seen all of his movies. Some I have liked, some I have not. But I was blown away. I am gonna be honest and say that when I saw the promos of the film first, I remember thinking to myself, ‘He is too much’.

And then I watched the film and realized that he has such amazing screen presence. Someone like me sitting in the theatre actually believed that he was from Delhi. It is only later on when we met at some party,

I asked him, ‘Oh! So you moved to Bombay?’ He said, ‘I am a Bombay boy’. That’s when it hit me that he had played a Delhi guy. It is amazing that he could do that in his very first film and till date, it is my favourite performance.”

Your character, Mastani is madly in love with Bajirao. You said that she is a horse with blinkers. Don’t you think that in today’s world, a girl like her will be taken for granted?

I don’t know. I don’t think it will be right for me to generalize the male species and say that men will take such a woman for granted. It depends on each man’s individual personality and every woman’s individual personality. It would be wrong for me generalize men and say that men are like this or men like that, because they are not.

As far as box-office collections are concerned, ‘Tamasha’ has failed to attract the audiences. What do you have to say on that? I really liked the film and wished that it had done better…

For me, right now sitting here, the very fact that you said you liked the film is a box-office success. I am not an actor who has ever been involved with numbers. I never have; I never intend to. So, for me, if you are sitting here now and telling me that you, as an audience, are disappointed that the film did not make numbers because you genuinely liked the film, I have done my job. What more does an actor want!
