Deepika Padukone, who has had a fairly dramatic life with all the professional and personal ups and downs, seems to have inspired the plot of a film that is based on her life story. And incidentally, it’s none other than her ex-boyfriend Nihar Pandya who will be essaying the lead role in this film that’s said to be inspired by the real life romance of Deepika and Nihar.
The actress, however, is not happy with the developments at all. She is in fact livid with Nihar for selling the details of their private relationship to a filmmaker. But that’s not all. The biggest blow came in when Deepika found out that the film has been titiled Deepika Oh My Darling.
“It’s in very bad taste to say the least,” says Deepika’s confidante. “How can people suddenly decide to make a film based on someone’s supposed love life? And who is supposed to guarantee the authenticity?”
The actress’s close friends and contemporaries are dissing Nihar and director Prashant Chaddha’s cheap tricks to gain publicity out of her stardom. But this is not the first time a real life love story has inspired a film. In the past both Mahesh and Vikram Bhatt have made films based on their personal relationships with Sushmita Sen and Parveen Babi respectively.
So then, should Dippy turn to Sushmita for advice to handle her quandary?
