Deepika Padukone explains why she did ‘Piku’

Deepika Padukone Piku

Shoojit Sircar’s ‘Piku’ (2015) did well at the box office and has won six awards at the Big Star Entertainment Awards 2015 recently in Mumbai. Despite great success, Deepika Padukone admits being questioned on many occasions, why she did ‘Piku’ (2015).

She told DNA India, “When I was doing the film, a lot of people asked me why I am doing a film with Shoojit Sircar, why doing a film based on a father-daughter story. I am happy that people loved and accepted the film. At award function also we should encourage these films.”

She added, “The awards that I have got today are for ‘Piku’. I am happy I have got award for a special film like ‘Piku’. Rarely, we get a chance to do something new and different.”

Padukone has made it clear that she is not worried about directors, as long as she gets to try a different and fun role.

She will be on the big screens on 18th December in ‘Bajirao Mastani’ (2015).
