As a lifestyle expert with years of industry experience under my belt, I must say that Deepika Padukone and Imtiaz Ali have consistently proven themselves to be a powerhouse duo in Bollywood. Their ability to create magic on screen is truly commendable.

Deepika Padukone and Imtiaz Ali have teamed up on several critically acclaimed films, such as Love Aaj Kal and Tamasha. Lately, this filmmaker has lavished praise upon the actress, describing her as ‘a pleasure to work with’ and revealing that she always arrived on set ahead of any other actor.

At a recent chat during IFFSA Toronto 2024, filmmaker Imtiaz Ali mentioned his pleasure of collaborating with some truly exceptional actors, such as Deepika Padukone. He added that he found her extremely ‘easy-going’ on set and felt very ‘at ease’ working alongside her. Imtiaz further stated that among all the cast members, Deepika was the quickest to prepare, often ready much ahead of any other actor. He admired how swiftly she was ready even for default shots.

Imtiaz additionally mentioned that no one worked as tirelessly in the country as the female actors in the Indian film industry. He specifically referred to the “leading ladies” or the glamorous actresses of the Hindi film industry. The director highlighted that these women often arrived at the set earlier than anyone else, to ensure their makeup and costumes were perfectly prepared.

Speaking from my perspective as a lifestyle advisor, let me share an insight I’ve gathered working with professionals: They often endure discomfort by wearing unyielding footwear, layer minimally to brave harsh cold sets, and sacrifice sleep in their relentless pursuit of excellence. In my view, these individuals embody the essence of hard work within our industry.

This year, Imtiaz Ali’s movie titled “Amar Singh Chamkila” hit the screens. It’s a biographical drama that tells the story of Amar Singh Chamkila, a musician, and his wife, Amarjot Kaur. In the lead roles are Diljit Dosanjh and Parineeti Chopra. You can now watch it on Netflix.

In addition to Imtiaz, there was a great deal of enthusiasm for the re-release of his 2011 film “Rockstar,” starring Ranbir Kapoor. Cinema-goers swarmed the theaters in droves, showering the movie with overwhelming affection once more.

Presently, Deepika Padukone is delighting in the period of motherhood. On September 8, 2024, she and her husband, Ranveer Singh, were blessed with a baby girl. The actress has been posting relatable reels on Instagram, offering glimpses into her new mom experience. Upcoming, she is preparing for the launch of Singham Again during Diwali.
