When Deepika was a background model and Fardeen Khan show stopper

Revealed! Deepika Padukone's 2005 appearance as a background model with Fardeen Khan

It all started when Shahid Kapoor was spotted in a song sequence in Subhash Ghai's 'Taal'. That was considered as a rare occurrence. But over the years, the list of celebrities going unnoticed in their initial days making insignificant appearances is getting longer by the day. Earlier this morning, we brought to light Dia Mirza's appearance in a well-known song from the Tamil film, 'En Swasa Kaatre' where the pretty actress was seen dancing as an extra in the song, 'Jumbalaka' composed by A R Rahman. And now we have this...

WATCH: Is that Dia Mirza as a background dancer?

We know that before conquering Bollywood, Deepika Padukone was building a modeling career. Well, we just got our hands on a pic from her good ol' days. The pic is from a 2005 Provogue Fashion Show with Fardeen Khan, who was their then brand ambassador, as the show stopper. And walking with all her attitude behind Fardeen is Miss Padukone.

Who would have imagined that one day, that model at the back would become one of the most sought after actresses of Bollywood? So much so that she would even make inroads into Hollywood! Quite a journey, isn't it?

How tables turn! 😆 DP is an inspiration to outsiders although she's not totally an outsider but she has defo come a long way!

Wheel of fortune worked in favour of Deepika. So time always changes.
