One of her best characters till date, Piku saw Deepika in the role of a mature woman who goes through many struggles, however, manages to stay positive in small things. Her act as Piku alongside her onscreen father Amitabh Bachchan and co-star Irrfan was much appreciated by critics as well as the audience.
In her first film alongside her now husband Ranveer Singh, Deepika managed to shine bright in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s take on Romeo and Juliet. Her chemistry with Ranveer was palpable.
Deepika played a historical character with much ease and this was the second time she was seen on the silver screen with Ranveer Singh. She made the audience swoon over her with her fiery sword fights and impactful dialogues.
One of Deepika’s most commercially successful films, Chennai Express wowed everyone with her portrayal of a South Indian girl. Nonetheless, the audience loved seeing her with Shah Rukh Khan yet again.
From her docile roles, it was a drastic change to see Deepika as a crazy and fun loving girl in Cocktail. With her impulsive party girl act, she looked classy yet bold and everyone loved her totally.
Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani is another film of Deepika that showed her versatility as an actress. Her chemistry with Ranbir Kapoor worked like magic on the screen.
The film depicts the immortal love between Rajput ruler Maharawal Ratan Singh (Shahid Kapoor) and Rani Padmavati (played by Deepika). Her strong depiction of the queen who never gives up her pride and integrity even in the face of death is what stood out.
Based on the life of acid attack survivor Laxmi Agarwal, the film was a bold move on Deepika’s part as her face as Laxmi was disfigured to almost the entire length.
