DEEPIKA PADUKONE: FILM JUST ALWAYS FELT FAMILIAR TO ME. I WOULD JUST THINK, ‘I BELONG HERE.'

The dusky beauty Deepika Padukone has made many fans with her dimple-istic smile and acting skills. The actress is yet to announce her next project after giving magnum performance in Padmaavat. 

while interacting with TINGS magazine, Deepika talked about her passion for acting and said; “I wasn’t one of those kids who practiced acting in front of the mirror or anything like that. In fact, I was extremely shy and self-conscious growing up, but for some reason whenever I went to the theatre with my parents, I kind of sensed that’s where I would be, on the screen. I never fantasized about how I was going to land there or how successful I was going to be. Film just always felt familiar to me. I would just think, ‘I belong here.'”

When she was asked about a specific film or character that has affected her as a person or an actor, she replied;  “There was a stereotype in my own mind of what an actress should be, what she should look like, dress like, etc. Cocktail is a film that changed a  lot of things for me because I think that movie came to me at a point in my life when I was coming into my own. I was having a breakthrough with myself and the role I played in that film sort of enhanced that entire experience for me. The character I played (Veronica) was completely different than who I am personally, and I felt like playing her completely opened me up. I felt like a different, more authentic person after that film and I’ve felt this way ever since.”
