Rekha gives gift to Deepika Padukone

This is not the first time that Deepika has received a token of love and appreciation from Rekha.

Earlier too, Deepika was gifted with a gorgeous silk saree after the release of Bajirao Mastani.

In fact, at her childhood friend wedding, she had worn the same saree and turned heads for looking absolutely gorgeous.

Deepika Padukone is on cloud nine post the success of her recent film Padmaavat.

She has been thanking her fans and contemporaries who supported her throughout the controversies the film had faced.

Now, Deepika is over the moon as she has received a personal note and a gorgeous saree from veteran actor Rekha.

A source says, “Deepika was elated to receive a handwritten note along with a gift from Rekhaji. It was a heart touching letter from the veteran actress who expressed her awe and appreciation towards Deepika’s performance in Padmaavat.”

Talking about the film, Deepika said, “For me, it is the success of womanhood in so many different ways. The film is also a celebration of the fact that this is the most expensive Indian film ever been made with a female protagonist.

“In many ways, the film is a turning point in my career and yet I was willing to put that on hold to address a much larger issue…,” she continued.

She added, “I view that as a victory. Not just for myself but for women in films.”–CINEWS
