Deepika Padukone seems to be getting all that she ever asked for. The actress, who in a recent interview mentioned that she would love to work with her ex-boyfriend Ranbir Kapoor, got her wish fulfilled in the form of Ayaan Mukerji's forthcoming film.
The project, which was initially offered to Katrina Kaif, fell on Dippy's lap after the former refused due to date problems. And now, Deepika who has been quite vocal about her wish to work with Salman, will finally get her second wish fulfilled as well. Thanks to Farah Khan and her next directorial venture.
Deepika after being launched by Farah Khan in the 2007 hit Om Shanti Om, fell out with the filmmaker.
The actress had apparently developed an attitude and refused to acknowledge the filmmaker's contribution in her instant stardom. Determined to mend bridges, Dippy has been sending Farah's prawn curry to the filmmaker's home. And the seafood seems to have worked.
Farah seems to have forgiven the actress' earlier conduct. In fact, Deepika will now be a part of Farah's next directorial venture opposite Salman Khan. The film will go on floors next year.
Farah denied having cast anyone at the moment, but admitted that she is almost done with the script. While sources from the industry confirmed Deepika's presence in the Farah Khan venture, the actress herself chose not to reply. Deepika's business manager neither confirmed not denied the story.
A source close to the actress, however said, "Deepika has it all - beauty grace talent. All she needs is that little push which would propel her into the big league. She got overnight stardom with Om Shanti Om.
This she consolidated with another winning performance in Bachna Ae Haseenon. Thought outwardly she remained calm, inwardly the end of her relationship changed her attitude to love and fidelity. Deepika lost a lot of professional ground because of the relationship. But she is now determined to get back where she belongs."
