Deepika's PR on fire

Bollywood actor Deepika Padukone and West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee are well known personalities in their respective fields. However, the two are similar to each other in the following ways:

1. Born on the same day. The West Bengal Chief Minister and the Bollywood star share the same birthday - January 5. Mamata has turned 60 while Deepika is now 29.

2. The second similarity follows the first: both, naturally, share the same sun sign - Capricorn.

3.Both are outspoken. Mamata is so frank that often her statements stir controversies. Deepika too does not mince words, given the way she lashed out at a daily last year over a photo gallery.

4. Their favourite colour is white. Mamata is always seen in a plain white sari while Deepika too prefers a white wardrobe.

5.Both like Shah Rukh Khan. Mamata has made the superstar her state's brand ambassador while Deepika and Shah Rukh Khan make for a superhit Jodi - from Om Shanti Om to Chennai Express to Happy New Year.
