Hearing the praise coming from Bhansali, Deepika Padukone was visibly moved and broke down.
According to sources, "Deepika has put in a lot of hard work in Ram Leela and hearing the praise from Bhansali on the last day touched her deeply."
The compliment was all the more special because the character of Leela that Deepika plays in the film is named after Bhansali's mother and therefore very dear and special to him. He obviously wouldn't be loose with compliments.
Ram Leela has Deepika Padukone pairing with Ranvir Singh. Deepika even took some scolding by Bhansali during the making, but praise at the end makes all the hard work worth it.
