2013 has undoubtedly been Deepika Padukone’s year with four major blockbusters at the box-office starring the talented diva. 2014, too, has begun on a high note for her. The actor was all smiles, as she graced the red carpet of Filmfare Awards 2014, winning the Best Actor Trophy for her performance in ‘Goliyon Ki Raasleela: Ram-leela’.
Deepika made a million heads turn at the star-studded night, with her daring golden gown by designer Gaurav Gupta. Deepika was nominated as the best actor for two of her films – ‘Goliyon Ki Raasleela: Ram-leela’ and ‘Chennai Express’ for Filmfare Awards. On receiving the prestigious black lady, Deepika said, “Thank you Idea and Filmfare. This is for my mother. I missed her during the shoot. This award is very special for me. As a child, Filmfare Awards was one thing we would sit and see together in family. I never thought one day I’ll be here receiving an award. Thank you Sanjay Leela Bhansali for giving such an opportunity. Thank you Ranveer for being a good co-star. 2013 was a good year for me”
Deepika is certainly on a winning streak this awards season. The Filmfare award seemed to be the icing on the cake, after having bagged the Best Actor trophies at two other prestigious award ceremonies.
At the Screen Awards, the gorgeous diva won Best Actress (Jury Award) and Best Actress (Popular) for ‘Goliyon Ki Raasleela: Ram-leela’ and ‘Chennai Express’. At the Star Guild Awards, Deepika was nominated in the Best Actress category for three of her films- ‘Chennai Express’, ‘Goliyon Ki Raasleela: Ram-leela’ and ‘Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani’. It was ‘Chennai Express’ that won her the ‘Best Actress’ Star Guild award.
The BIG Star Entertainment awards also saw Deepika Padukone walking away with three BIG trophies, for ‘Best Actress’, ‘Most Entertaining Comedy Actress’ & ‘Best Jodi’ with her Chennai Express co-star Shah Rukh Khan.
For Deepika, the reasons to celebrate never seem to end. While the party will go on, Deepika has ensured that she continues to enthrall the audience in 2014, as well. The actor will be seen in Rajinikanth’s magnum opus ‘Kochadaiiyaan’, ‘Finding Fanny Fernandes’ with Arjun Kapoor and ‘Happy New Year’ with King Khan.
