Mumbai: After debuting with a blockbuster in 2007, Deepika Padukone has hardly lost the taste of success. With Race 2, Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani and now Chennai Express striking gold at the box office this year, one of Bollywood’s star actresses says success is nothing but “relative”.
Is it her year at the box office?
“If people are saying it’s my year, it depends on my films,” said Deepika in an interview.
“I think these things are relative. It feels nice to hear or to read about it. But, more importantly, I have been working really hard. I know I have pushed myself and sacrificed a lot of personal and family time. But in the end if the result is like this, you don’t mind. But, yes, I think success is relative,” she added.
Deepika’s Chennai Express, starring her Om Shanti Om co-star Shah Rukh Khan seems to be on its way to breaking records at the box office. The film released Friday to a roaring opening day response.
The more the success, the tougher it gets to keep up to it, believes Deepika, who made a rare successful transition from modelling to filmdom.
“I have to focus all my energies and hope that the next film is better. It does not get easier to live up to all of that. I want that with every film, the love, success and experience increase,” said the 27-year-old daughter of former national badminton champion Prakash Padukone.
In her over five-year-long film career, the actress has been a part of various movie genres - thriller, romance, action, drama and comedy. She finds comedy the toughest.
“Comedy is the most difficult. Comic timing is something which you either have it in you, or you don’t,” she said.
