Acclaimed Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone is a diva who carries a distinct persona. Whether on-screen or off it, she never fails to mesmerize audiences with her charm and elegance. While the actress has been an inspiration to many women in various ways, it was the women on screen who inspired her to step into the world of entertainment. When asked about her inspiration behind getting into acting, Deepika said, “You know, I think for me just as a young girl growing up, I grew up in a family full of sportsmen and athletes, and we didn’t watch very many movies but few movies that we watched in a year, everytime we went into the cinema, I’d look at these amazing women and be inspired by them and sort of knew somewhere deep down inside as a child that, that is something I would be doing one day.”

Having recently embraced motherhood, she is excelling in that role as well. While she was away from the cinema world for a while, we certainly missed her presence.
