Deepika takes a dig at Sonam by expressing, "I have achieved it all on my own."

Deepika-n-Sonam

Success is hard for many to handle responsibly and actress Deepika Padukone, who was endorsing a head massager by Parachute was the perfect example as she started with refused to speak about her movie 'OSO'.

When we asked Deepika on the comparisons being made between Sonam and her, the actress instantly replied, "There should be no comparisons as I am not from Bollywood and have achieved everything on my own also, our movie genres are different."

Deepika in a subtle way hinted to the fact that Sonam is Anil Kapoor's daughter and that was the reason behind her getting her big break with 'Saawariya'. Deepika's tone was very defensive and she did not sound pleasant about her rival.

Hmmm...Deepika is usually a well-behaved kid...seems the Farah colour rubbed off a little on her.😡😆....She will learn... she will learn.

everyone is not perfect people dont always say the right thing always we are human asn to err is human . We all say things which we might think is not right sometimes . It happens .
Besides suppose you get a job because of ur talent n someone else gets because he's an MLA's kid you will definitly speak if asked about it . ITs natural theres no hot headedness in it ! Though I like both deeika n sonam equally is dont see any arrogance in deepika's words .

😆....I won't say much about SRK but yes, Farah can teach only stuff of this sort. No wonder, she is considered crass in the industry circles...add to that a brother who is hated by half the industry because of his so-called sense of humour and a husband who has no other business except for cheating on Farah and leching at other women.😡

Farah Khan has seen really bad days in her life... and I thought that would make her more humble, compassionate and understanding....but, anyway, let's forget it.

I hope Deepika doesn't develop the acid syndrome which has been responsible for labelling actresses like Kareena Kapoor ( now, she is much sweeter and mellowed) , Amisha Patel and Esha Deol as ones loaded with attitude.

Chill maar, Deepika.....you never know when the tables turn.😉 Deepika is a cool kid and i don't want that to change ever.

climbing the bollywood ladder may not have been easy, Deepika but if the sacrifices are worth the prize (your choice) then at least be gracious - because that is what people praise.

Does she really think she made it completely on her own??...Even in modelling??..Because that's not true...Both her parents are prominent socialites in Bangalore,she was hobnobbing with the beau monde ever since school days....Indrajit Lankesh,the director who launched her in Kannada used to play badminton with her whilst she was in school,and she was always encouraged to take up modelling and acting...She now says she didn't have a soupcon of thought of becoming a Bollywood actress,but I have it on good authority that she has ALWAYS wanted to act....The photographer who did her first photoshoot(Atul whatsisname) was a friend of her aunt's...Now how many aspiring models enjoy the services of a top photographer for their first portfolio??.....She might have made it in Bollywood on her own,but her contacts definitely aided her greatly to break into the modelling world,and the transition from a model to an actress is quite easy,as MOST models end up doing films.....

She's definitely Bollywood material---very pretty and a decent dancer...But if Sonam's dad introduced her to SLB,Deepika wouldn't have so easily been a top model(and thereby, actress) had she not has the right contacts!!

Yes,it's pronounded as "Padu-kon" like Beyonc....

I reckon Deepika got a bit carried away,she's just 21 afterall and she might have said something on the spur of the moment....It's so hard,innit??..For these celebrities to be politically correct all the frigging time....😆..Once in a while,they do tend to voice their true feelings...They are human afterall,so I guess we could cut them some slack
