Ranveer Singh's reaction to Deepika Padukone joining Atlee, Allu Arjun for AA22 x A6 proves he is ‘Hubby no. 1'
It is a big day for all Deepika Padukone fans as she has joined hands with Allu Arjun and Atlee for their next film. The actress is all set to make her power packed comeback after delivering her daughter Dua. In an official announcement, Jawan director welcomed the Piku actress on board his film tentatively titled AA22 x A6. Although the comments section is filled with fans going crazy over this big announcement, our attention is hooked on hubby Ranveer Singh's reaction.
The Simmba actor dropped in the comments section of his wife Deepika Padukone after she dropped the announcement video. He wrote, 'Whuoa!' with a love struck, fire and clapping hands emoji. This reaction itself grabbed around 2K likes. Not only likes, fans even started reacting to his comments and praised the Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani actress calling her an 'icon'.
A couple of hours back, Deepika Padukone made a collaborative post with Atlee and Sun Pictures that has broken the internet. The video can see Atlee narrating the story of AA22 x A6 to Deepika Padukone who looks classy in an all-white comfy attire. With whatever little we have seen in this video, one thing is very clear that the actress will be seen in a never-seen-before avatar and we cannot be more excited about it.
This is the first time she will be collaborating with Allu Arjun. While she has already worked with Atlee in Jawan for a cameo she made opposite Shah Rukh Khan. But now seeing them come together for a full-fledged film is going to be something else.
Well, this announcement has come just days after a big fallout between her and Sandeep Reddy Vanga 's Spirit. The actress had earlier joined hands with the Animal director for Prabhas starrer magnum opus. Unfortunately due to an 8-hour shift demand she made her way out.
Apart from the Atlee directorial, Deepika will reportedly be seen in Shah Rukh Khan starrer King. This film also stars Suhana Khan in a pivotal role.

Deepika Padukone's Fans TROLL 'Manchild' Sandeep Reddy Vanga As She Joins Atlee's Film
Last Updated: Deepika Padukone's fans also lauded Atlee for showcasing her as a superstar in the announcement video. Deepika Padukone's fans have begun trolling Sandeep Reddy Vanga after the actress was confirmed for Atlee's Telugu film. Sandeep Reddy Vanga reportedly removed Deepika Padukone from Spirit as he couldn't match her demands. One of them was that Deepika allegedly refused to mouth Telugu dialogues. Amid this row, Deepika has signed Atlee and Allu Arjun's upcoming film, AA22xA6. Earlier today, the makers dropped an intriguing video welcoming Deepika onboard AA22xA6. The video promises that Deepika will have an action-packed role in the film. The video began with Deepika discussing the script with Atlee before they got on the set and started preparing for the movie's CGI-enabled action-packed sequences. Deepika was shown wielding a sword and riding a dummy horse for the film. As the video went viral on social media sites, Deepika's fans on Reddit trolled Sandeep Reddy Vanga. One person wrote, 'Yup, so it was never about speaking Telugu or 8 hours or remuneration. All those were lies? Guess we now know who the bigger liar was in this whole saga." Another wrote, 'Man child Vangu crying in the corner.' One person wrote, 'She has been the top actress for years. No Sandeep Reddy Vanga can make her sit at home." One fan commented, 'Deepika be like, 'Your move Vanga.'" Another wrote, 'Vanga must be feeling so irritated now lol." One person wrote, 'Just as there were rumours about her being ousted from another movie over her 8-hour shift demands, this is a knockout move. A statement made loud & clear. Good for her." Another wrote, 'Glad she chose to walk out of misogynist manchild's film." Meanwhile, in the caption of the announcement clip, the makers described Deepika as a 'queen" who is ready to 'conquer". Interestingly, this announcement comes as Deepika Padukone is embroiled in the Spirit exit controversy. There is also buzz that her demands aren't sitting well with Kalki 2898 AD director Nag Ashwin as well. While there is no confirmation on this yet, the chatter around Deepika's upcoming films has created a social media frenzy. Amid this, the actress's fans are praising Atlee for 'understanding" and 'respecting" Deepika's point of view and superstar status. First Published:

'Deepika, Katrina Were The Right Girls', Vijay Mallya Reflects On Their Kingfisher Calendar Days
Last Updated: Vijay Mallya's Kingfisher Calendar, launched in 2003, featured future Bollywood stars like Deepika Padukone and Katrina Kaif. He threw light on the same. Long before Deepika Padukone and Katrina Kaif became the reigning stars in Bollywood, they appeared on businessman-politician Vijay Mallya's famous Kingfisher Calendars. Launched in 2003 under the Kingfisher brand with ace photographer Atul Kasbekar leading the charge, the bold annual swimsuit calendar quickly turned into a national phenomenon by the late 2000s. Mallya, in a recent interview, spoke about 'choosing the right girls" such as Deepika and Katrina to feature on the much-talked-about calendar. Vijay Mallya's Kingfisher Calendar showcased Indian models in stunning international locations, and soon earned a reputation as a launchpad for future stars. Speaking to Youtuber Raj Shamani on his podcast, Mallya said, 'We chose the right girls, whether it was Deepika Padukone, Katrina Kaif. We had all the heroines and the stars on the calendar at a younger age. We picked the right talent." When asked why numerous Kingfisher Calendar models saw successful acting careers, Mallya said, 'Because we chose the right girls." He emphasised that the calendar was a strategic branding exercise, not a personal endeavour. 'I did it because it was a fantastic marketing tool. Did not bring anything to me personally. But it did wonders to the brand," he noted. Shutting down rumours about personal links with the actresses, Mallya clarified, 'It was strictly to the calendar." The Kingfisher Calendar is known for helping launch the careers of several prominent Bollywood actresses. Katrina Kaif appeared in the first edition in 2003, while Deepika Padukone was featured in the 2006 calendar, well before becoming widely recognised. The calendar's cultural impact was substantial enough to inspire Madhur Bhandarkar's 2015 film Calendar Girls, which depicted the journey of aspiring models facing fame and the darker aspects of the fashion industry after being featured in such a publication. Mallya, the former owner of Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), fled India in 2016. Since then, he has been residing in the UK, fighting extradition to face legal proceedings in India. His sudden appearance on the podcast has garnered attention not only due to the ongoing cases against him but also because it marks his first media interaction in nearly a decade. First Published:

Sonali Bendre reflects on balancing motherhood and career: "I really felt that if I brought a child into this world...."
Bollywood is a fast-paced industry in which actresses are expected to work diligently, and some have defied expectations by continuing to shoot during pregnancy. However, questions are often raised about the work culture, and this issue has garnered more attention after Deepika Padukone 's exit from Sandeep Reddy Vanga 's upcoming film 'Spirit'. Reportedly, Padukone had differences over working hours with the makers, and she wanted an eight-hour shift after the birth of her daughter Dua. Sonali Bendre , one of the popular 90s actresses, who acted in films such as 'Sarfarosh', 'Diljale' and 'Hum Saath Saath Hain', spoke about taking a break from her work due to pregnancy and carrying the responsibility of motherhood. In a conversation with ANI, she said, "I turned into a mother..I acted till..I was doing a play with Farooq have lost was called 'Aapki Soniya', which was a sequel to Tumhari Amrita. And I was pregnant at that point of time. Literally at the end of it, I break down and stuff like that. And I remember that about... eight months pregnant at least, because we were sitting and doing it. I would do it. And then, you know, that when I would break down, I would, the baby was giving me these kicks and there was so much happening. And I'm like, am I scarring this child? I don't know what is happening, but yeah. So till then I did this. So I kept working till I literally delivered the child." Citing the reason for taking breaks, she said, "The breaks were... when I was bringing up the child. And I really felt that if I brought a child into this world, I needed to give it the time. And I enjoyed that tremendously. That was a role that I was playing. And I think I did take a break from fiction. But I was doing non-fiction because non-fiction for me in my business or line of work is the closest going to a 9 to 5 job where I could, put in, these two days I work and I come back and I could have a pattern. When you do fiction, then there are outdoors, you're into a role, you're playing a character. Are you getting it back with you? There were multiple things. I really couldn't do justice to it at that point of time. And by then for me, I had also realized that if I do it, what I had done was not what I wanted to do in, in future where fiction was concerned. I just felt that I was just beginning to understand my craft and I felt that I know I can do better. And for that, I needed better roles also. So I said, you know what, let me focus on this right now and let's figure this out. So that's where the break happened." "The second break that happened was I did, I started with a show and it was called 'Ajeeb Daastaan Hai Ye'.. I started with it and after that, while I was doing, the cancer diagnosis came through and then the healing process again, It was just about 2017 or something...I must have done it, " she said. Sonali was diagnosed with metastatic cancer in 2018. She flew to the United States of America for treatment and was later declared cancer-free. She continued, "I really got back into fiction and I was listening to scripts and I was literally on verge of okaying things that I would start shooting and then this diagnosis happened. And I think, the thing about cancer is the treatment is so harsh, especially when you go through your regular chemotherapy and radiation and all of that. Those are so harsh, the body is just killed from inside. And just to heal from it and get back to doing the work that I do. Our job is very physical. Not just mental, but very, very physical also. So there is no, I'm not up to it, but the set is standing. The dates are there. You have to go to work. You can't say somebody else take over for me today. So I needed to really heal and then get back to it, which I have done now." "I came back (from abroad) and my healing process has been in India. I did do certain non-fiction again. And then after a certain period of time, when I knew physically I could take it, because you put in so many hours of everyday working for 12 to 16 hours. See, when you're on set, your hour is a 16 to 18 hour day. It's very long hours. Now you have to be able to do that. I started with non-fiction again because then it was like a two day and then you could rest a bit. So, and then, of course, I got into fiction, two seasons of 'Broken News' and then, now some more things this year, we should have some more things coming out." Meanwhile, on the work front, she made her OTT debut with ZEE5's series, 'Broken News'. In the show, she played the role of a journalist named Amina Qureshi. She made her acting debut with the 1994 film 'Aag', which also starred Govinda, Shilpa Shetty and Shakti Kapoor . Her first big hit was the action romance 'Diljale', which was released in 1996, and later she was also part of movies such as 'Major Saab', 'Sarfarosh', 'Duplicate', Zakhm', 'Chori Chori ', and 'Hum Saath Saath Hain', among others. In 2018, she was diagnosed with cancer and underwent treatment in the undergoing treatment for months, she finally defeated the disease and came out victorious, and since then, she has been raising awareness about cancer.
