Though Deepika Padukone played badminton during her school days she could not go beyond state level, she just moved to modelling.Deepika Padukone grown up watching Shah Rukh Khan and never really imagined that one day I will get to play the lead opposite him. It was a wonderful experience working with Shah Rukh and Farah. I have learnt a lot from both of them.
Shah Rukh is a great human being. I had done quite a bit of modeling and wanted to give acting a try. That’s when Farah approached me and I accepted. Today, I’m so glad that I waited since I could not have had a better debut.Farah and SRK have taken superb care of me. Farah treats me like her child. I never wanted to be a Bollywood heroine. The thought never crossed my mind.
As a child, I never stuck poses in front of the mirror.I will be choosy and work in good films only. I am not interested in exposing even if I am offered good money.I played state level badminton till the 10th standard. Then I had to study for my ICSE board exams, so I stopped playing for three months and modelling happened after that.
