This one is the same as the Bharadwaj one right? I CANNOT WAIT. Always thought she'd be perfect as a Bharadwaj heroine, specifically a Shakespearian actor. But this is an original script about Sapna didi,so let's see.Her and Irfan are LOVE. Such subtle chemistry.Also keeping my fingers crossed for that Amrita Pritam-Sahir Ludhianvi biopic. Can someone cast her opposite Rana or Randeep, pretty please.

Here's the reason Deepika Padukone signed Sapna Didi after Padmaavat

by Filmfare | Wed, Jan 31, 2018

Biopics are the latest talk of the town and the year 2017 saw its first mafia queen biopic on Haseena Parkar where Shraddha Kapoor essayed the title role. While there are a lot of cases where simple women turned to the underworld, Deepika Padukone found this one script the most appealing of all. Vishal Bhardwaj approached the star with a script on Ashraf Khan, popularly known as Sapna Didi who was a feared name in the underworld.

Married to a man who worked under Don Dawood Ibrahim, she had close connections with the most wanted person in the mafia world. After Dawood got her husband killed in a police encounter, she took it upon herself to avenge his death. Following this, she joined hand with Hussaid Ustara, a man who had hated Dawood for years and was waiting on a chance to murder him.

She learnt how to ride a bike and use a gun and also became a police informer against Dawood for a while. She eventually plotted to kill Dawood are the Sarjah Cricket stadium, but paid for her misadventures with her life. Her murder is considered one of the most brutal ones ever.

The story intrigued Deepika so much that she went on to pursue Vishal Bhardwaj to make it with her. She told a leading daily, "Of all the scripts I have heard in the last two years, I've been stuck on this one. He (Vishal Bhardwaj) brought this to me first, got me excited and then when I was ready to do it, he had moved on to something else. But, I persisted. It's the one occasion where I pursued the director to make the film.

Along with Deepika, Irrfan Khan will be seen in the film and this will be their second venture together after the success of Piku. When asked about her rapport with Irrfan, she said, "He's witty, smart and intelligent. I'm glad I'll be bouncing my ideas off someone who's a master at what he does. For an actor, that's going to be challenging but also exciting.

Deepika is currently flying high with the blockbuster success of her controversy struck film Padmaavat and will be starting out with Sapna Didi after a short break. Well, she sure is trying out new things with the choice of films now.
