Deepika Padukone replaces Kareena Kapoor opposite Emraan Hashmi

Mumbai: Till now we have been hearing a lot that Kareena will be fetched into the project to be co-produced by Karan Johar and Ekta Kapoor. And the reports also said that Kareena showed her interest working with Hashmi seeing his star power at the box office. And it is his box office power that the filmmaker like Karan Johar got interested in working with him not in one but in more movies. The latest reports have it that Kareena is no more interested in working with Emraan Hashmi. Some reports say that she is uncomfortable working with Emraan and some say that the film is to start on the days when she is to marry with Saif Ali Khan.
Anyway, whatever the reports are! The latest development is that Deepika Padukone, the leggy beauty, has been roped into the venture opposite Emraan and she is quite excited since the project is women-centric. Emraan Hashmi is not the mainstay of the movie.
A close source reveals that it appears to be much strange that Kareena does not want to work with Hashmi and she is not happy with her role. Source also says that she also let Karan and Ekta know that her wedding would be around the days of the film’s shooting thus she would be unable to work in the movie.
Before taking her flight to Turkey, Deepika signed the movie with super excitement as she was offered the much-needed women centric project.
Well, now we hear that Kareena showed her interest in working in this film (guess, she now realized that the project could take her to super heights) but now it is too late as Deepika has inked the deal with KJo and Ekta. Sometimes one takes bad decisions in haste and realizes the importance of the matter later. The same has happened with Kareena.

Deepika sex pictures get Upen in trouble

The sensational pictures that we revealed few days ago of Deepika Padukone getting into bed with Upen Patel have got the latter into a bit of bother as it has been rumoured that he may have deliberately released them to the media.

The images are three years old and were part of a photo shoot. Now Upen is being blamed for circulating these pictures in a bid to revive the rumours of him and Deepika. Says a source close to Deepika, “Why are these pictures coming out now? After three years? Right now Deepika is hot property; it can’t be a con-incidence that these pictures are suddenly popping up in everyone’s mailboxes.”

Upen has defended the allegations by being blissfully aware, “The pictures are something from the past. I don’t even remember them, if you know what I mean. I did some photo shoot with her for Wendell many years ago. Who ever is behind spreading these pictures has an agenda to spoil my image in the public eye but I am not at fault here.”

Deepika’s Bikini Act Has Raised The Heat In Cocktail

If we talk about hot bods in Bollywood then Deepika Padukone definitely falls in the top 5 of this very short list. Deepika has received accolades throughout her career for her looks, fitness and success scale. In Cocktail, Deepika plays the role of Veronica. With her character in Cocktail, she is definitely going to take the mercury level rising. For Deepika’s role as Veronica in Cocktail, she has probably looked her best so far. From the response for the trailer, posters and music video of Cocktail, we can consider the careers of the three actors to definitely be on a high horse.

Veronica’s character portrays an impulsive and care free personality. Deepika Padukone says, “Being skinny is not ‘hot and happening’ at all; rather, a toned, athletic body is the way to go!” Being a daughter of Badminton champion, fitness and health consciousness comes naturally to Deepika. All her hard work is evident in every sequence of the Cocktail promos running on paid as well as digital media. Her bikini sequence in the trailer of Cocktail has become the talk of the town. The actress has given an important tip to people seeking for a fit body: “If you don’t like the gym, get involved in a sport, take dance lessons or do the kind of physical activity that interests you.”

Is It The Break Up Time For Deepika & Sidharth Mallya?

The relationship which looked like for keeps has apparently started showing the signs of wear and tear. Are Deepika Padukone and Siddharth Mallya heading for splitsville? It’s said that their relationship is showing its first cracks.
Though Deepika and Siddharth were busy painting the town red with their numerous public appearances, the couple always stayed away from commenting on their relationship status. But, if you try to remember the last time the duo made an appearance together, you would probably fail. It’s nearly about three months since Deepika and Siddharth stopped going together to the public events.
When Siddharth Mallya appeared for the Mumbai Marathon in January, Deepika was nowhere to be seen. According to sources, Siddharth’s refusal to publicly acknowledge their relationship has been a bone of contention between them, and more recently, Deepika’s growing proximity to former boyfriend Ranbir Kapoor apparently became an issue with Siddharth.
As a tabloid reported, Mallya Jr even confided in a friend that “the relationship is not working and heading nowhere.” On the other hand, Deepika is also trying to look unperturbed. She is reportedly putting up a brave front and is focusing on her career.
Now, the obvious question: Is Ranbir Kapoor coming close to Deepika Padukone? The actor recently gifted a piano to Deepika when he came to know about her interest in learning music.
Ranbir and Deepika are also doing a romantic film together. Deepika even said once that there are no issues anymore with Ranbir, and that she is now “good friends” with him. Deepika even partied with Ranbir on his 29th birthday.
It can be just a rough phase in their high-profile relationship or maybe Deepika Padukone and Siddharth Mallya are headed for a new beginning in their lives?
