Deepika Padukone is one of the topmost actresses of Bollywood. And when you are such a popular star, everyone wants to know everything about your life, be it from present, future plans, or even your past. Many people have tried digging into Deepika Padukone’s past but the actress has managed to keep things secretive. Now, Malayalam actress Mamta Mohandas has come forward and spoken about the actress and revealed some hidden secrets from her College days.
Mamta Mohandas went to college with Deepika Padukone and still remembers the first time the two stars saw each other. In an interview with Filmfare, Mamta said, “So, I think she was a year junior to me. I saw Deepika for the first time when we went on a field trip to Goa. She was on the same bus as mine. At that time, we just knew her as Prakash Padukone’s daughter. People noticed her because she was extremely tall, and her friends were short. There were twin girls who walked on her left and right. It looked like an alphabet A. She was towering. She came across as a very calm, quiet and an inward person in college.”
The actress also added that cinema made her a better person. She said, “Cinema to me is a pure fantasy to keep my reality alive. Every time, I have a hiccup in my life, I think cinema is something that I can count down and always fall back on. It always lifts me. It took me a lot of time to fall in love with cinema. But once I discovered the performer in me, once I gained the kind of confidence. Cinema also gave me back, what I wanted it to give me, which did take some time. It made me fall in love with myself even more. So I guess the cinema is my expression of love!”
