Deepika Padukone admits that director Danish Aslam's good looks was one of the reasons she did Break Ke Baad.
Deepika Padukone takes a break from Rohit Dhawan's Desi Boyz to speak to Screen. Which is appropriate, considering that her upcoming release is titled Break Ke Baad, where she plays a commitment-phobic girl named Aaliya. Crossing her tanned, long legs, the actress settles into a chair in producer Kunal Kohli's office and breaks into a bright smile when the door opens and Danish Aslam, the tall and good-looking director of the film enters.
"I remember coming for a narration of Break Ke Baad in this very room and as soon as Danish entered, I said to myself. 'Wow, if he's the director then I am definitely doing the film!' And I always joke with him saying that I did the film not because I loved the script but because I liked him more," chuckles the actress, making the director turn a deep shade of red. She continues happily. "And it was only after I signed the film that I learnt that he already has a girlfriend. Wish I had known that before," she says, embarrassing him further.
