Padukone: 'Character shift was challenge'

Deepika Padukone has admitted that she found the shift in character for her two latest roles “very challenging”.

Speaking in an interview with IANS, the actress said that it was difficult going from a romantic comedy leading lady to the historical figure of Indian activist Kalpana Datta in such a short space of time.

"I did Break Ke Baad and Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey immediately one after the other. So I think it was very challenging for me in terms of my mind space to shift from the character in a romantic modern-day love story to the one in a period film," she said.

Padukone stars alongside Imran Khan in the Danish Aslam-directed Break Ke Baad, to be released on November 26.

Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey, which is based on the Manini Chatterjee book about the Chittagong uprising of 1930, is due for release on December 3.
