Deepika Padukone’s recent cameo in Shah Rukh Khan’s film “Jawan” has garnered significant attention, with praise for her performance and dedication to the project. Despite rumors suggesting a substantial payment for her appearance, Deepika clarified that she doesn’t charge a fee for cameo roles. This commitment extends to her previous cameo appearances in films like ’83 and Cirkus, where she also waived her fee.
In a recent interview, Deepika explained her motivations behind these special appearances. For ’83, she wanted to pay homage to women who support their husbands’ careers, inspired by her own mother’s experiences. Additionally, she expressed her willingness to appear in any film with Shah Rukh Khan and Rohit Shetty, citing a special bond with them.
Deepika and Shah Rukh Khan’s partnership goes beyond being co-stars; they consider each other their “lucky charm.” This connection has been evident in their successful collaborations over the years, beginning with their debut film ‘Om Shanti Om’ in 2007, which was a massive hit. They went on to share the screen in other successful films like ‘Chennai Express’ and ‘Happy New Year.’
In the near future, Deepika Padukone’s schedule is packed with upcoming projects. She’s set to feature alongside Hrithik Roshan and Anil Kapoor in ‘Fighter,’ team up with Prabhas for ‘Kalki 2898 AD,’ and take on the Hindi remake of ‘The Intern,’ co-starring Amitabh Bachchan.
Deepika’s dedication to her craft and her willingness to contribute to meaningful projects continue to solidify her as a beloved figure in the Indian film industry.
