Pushy Deepika

Published July 14, 2012

Bollywood’s dimpled doll Deepika Padukone may look like a softie but trust us, she’s not! Deepika P was recently found arguing with her Cocktail co-star and producer Saif Ali Khan about a song which apparently was edited out of the film.

Deepika P thought the song was a good one and should’ve been included in the promos (it’s been sung by Pakistani vocalist Imran Aziz). After a bit of an altercation on the sets of another film, Saif Ali gave in and now the track is part of the Cocktail soundtrack on the whole.

Appearances can be deceptive indeed.
