It gives out a strong, positive message to the industry and when you have a huge film like ‘Pathan’ on floors, the industry breathes a fresh lease of life. Deepika will be shooting with Shah Rukh till the schedule wrap of ‘Pathan’ which should happen in the next 15-20 days,” says a trade source.
“While we aren’t hearing much about Deepika Padukone’s role in the film, you can be rest assured that she will be in her fittest, hottest best in ‘Pathan’. Her role will blow our minds and it will be hugely talked about. The film, we hear, will see Deepika in a never seen before avatar and we are really excited to see how Siddharth Anand and Aditya Chopra unveil her character. Deepika and SRK have always created magic on the big screen and we can expect nothing less than a full-blown masala, visual extravaganza that will pull people back to the theatres,” the source added. —Bollywood Hungama
