Saturday, 25th Oct 2014, 4:44 PM IST Deepika Padukone, who plays one of the lead roles in Farah Khan’s ‘Happy New Year’, revealed how she got the role in the film.
Talking about it, Deepika said, “Apparently, everyone was calling her (Farah) and telling her that they want to do the movie. I never want to step on someone’s toes. She is Maa for me. I never go to a director and say ‘I want to do your movie’ and apparently, other people were doing that. Farah was wondering why I wasn’t picking up the phone and expressing my desire to do the film. Basically, we both kept talking about ‘Happy New Year’ andwould ask each other ‘So, what’s happening?’"
Farah said, “Then finally one day I put ‘Even Czar isasking, who is the heroine of Happy New Year?’ as my BBM status."
Deepika added, “Then Shahrukh asked me if I want to do thefilm. I told him ‘I can’t believe you guys took so long’."
‘Happy New Year’ released in theatres yesterday and is getting a great response at the box-office.
