After a 2-year hiatus Deepika Padukone is back in two back-to-back releases. While in the cricket drama ’83 she plays Romi Kapil Dev, it is her next release in January that has us all agog.
In Shakun Batra’s Gehrayiaan Deepika plays an older woman in a relationship with a younger man. While her character is being kept under wraps, it can be revealed that this is her rawest most real character to date.
A source close to the project informs, “Deepika has mostly played glamorous women. This is her first attempt at playing something so real. She is in almost every frame of the film. The other characters are supporting players. Gehrayiaan is Deepika’s story , unlike ’83 where she plays a supporting role.”
