Sanjay Leela Bhansali's 'Padmaavat' proved to attract controversy both before and after release. With both, appreciation and criticism withstanding, one can vouch for lead actors Deepika Padukone, Ranveer Singh, and Shahid Kapoor's stellar acting in the movie. The three, who played pivotal characters, have found praises from leading figures of the film industry, and the public.
Deepika, however, got a wonderful surprise from Neetu and Rishi Kapoor, one that she shared on her Instagram. Sharing a photo of a bouquet and a note that read 'Excellent work!!! So very proud of you', that she received from ex-beau Ranbir Kapoor's parents, Deepika wrote, “It was so lovely seeing both of you yesterday... Thank You for all the love & appreciation! @neetu54 #RishiKapoor”. Later in an interview, the actress said she was touched by Neetu and Rishi's gesture and that she shares fond memories with them.
The actress recently joined her family as her father and ace badminton champion Prakash Padukone received the 'Lifetime Achievement Award' by the Badminton Association of India, an honour that was presented to him by Vice President Venkaiah Naidu in Delhi. She accompanied her father, mother Ujala, and sister Anisha Padukone. Pictures from the event even saw her get emotional while her father was presented with the honour.
