Deepika Padukone ready to dethrone Aishwarya Rai Bachchan !

Deepika Padukone is undoubtedly the next big thing in B-Town. The actress who bagged her very first Hindi film opposite Shah Rukh Khan is definitely one lucky girl. She was chosen for Om Shanti Om because she had an old world charm in her looks that justified her character of superstar Shanti Priya.

But DeepikaPadukone’s ethereal looks reminds of a more contemporary actress. Very clearly she resembles Aishwarya Rai in her facial features. In fact in the second half of Om Shanti Om, Deepika’s look so much resembles to that of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan from the film Josh.
The two beautiful ladies have left us mesmerized by their lovely looks and great acting skills. But did you know that the two also share many similarities with each other. Take for instance prior to Farah Khan offering Deepika the role in Om Shanti Om, Deepika’s first debut film was a Kannada film titled Aishwarya opposite south star Upendra. Incidentally in the film Upendra was called Abhishek and ask Deepika who she would love to work with next and she quickly replies Abhishek Bachchan (Hope Ash is listening!)

Well it’s not just the good looks that the two share. Apart from being beauty queens Aishwarya and Deepika share similar behaviors too. Both the actress never dreamt of becoming heroines and are extremely level headed. Both have had their share of controversial affairs, which have been the talk of the town. Like Ash, Deepika is not just beautiful but also has trained in classical dance. When asked how she feels to be compared to Ash, Deepika she says she feels extremely pleased about the comparisons and it’s a great thought of having a lot in common with her.

Her love life is also in media eyes much like Aishwarya’s, every affair of hers makes to national headlines. The hottest new thing of bollywood who was once considered close to twenty twenty cricket captain M S Dhoni, played perfect hostess at the birthday bash of Yuvraj Singh at a five star hotel recently. Deepika danced with Yuvi throughout the evening and mingled with the guests present on the occasion, as if she was part of the dashing Yuvraj Singh’s family. Of course, Dhoni did not attend the birthday bash of his colleague.

Sources present on the occasion say that the body language of gorgeous Deepika Padukone and Yuvraj Singh was more than visible to any discerning eyes and that was certainly not that of just friend’s variety. The two looked very much comfortable with each other in the gathering and looked every inch a couple.

It may be recalled that before Yuvraj Singh, the sexy Deepika was linked with Dhoni and she had even attended a cricket match played between Australia and India on his invitation. But perhaps things did not work out between them and Deepika moved on to Dhoni’s vice captain Yuvraj Singh. And since then, she has been going steady with Yuvi, though the two never openly admitted it. (Likewise Aishwarya never admitted in print her on going affairs from Salman to Abhishek whom she finally married)

Earlier, Deepika Padukone had a steady relationship with model Nihar Pandya and at some point of time even lived in his house, but later moved out when Ranbir Kapoor objected to it.

After the release of her first film Deepika is on signing spree so much like Aishwarya. More than signing films she is busy endorsing products again like Ash. She has officially been signed as the brand ambassador of Levi Strauss Signature and Tissot.

Deepika agrees that she is getting more endorsement offers after the release of her first film. "Yes it's true that I have been getting lot of endorsement deals. But I have to be choosy. You should relate to the brand also you should feel for the brand. Every brand has a certain target audience. You have to understand the requirement of the brand and that's why I am here to endorse the signature."

Deepika is just one film old and has a huge fan following. What does she feel about her newfound stardom? "First of all I don't think I am a star. I am just one film old and have a long way to go. I don't think I could've asked for a better launch than Om Shanti Om. I just hope that I've lived up to everyone's expectations."

Post the release of Om Shanti Om Deepika has been getting offers from big production houses. And though there is a lot of buzz about Deepika doing Agent Vinod with Saif Ali Khan and Krissh 2 with Hrithik Roshan, Deepika denies the reports. She says, "As of now I have signed two movies. I'll be shooting with Ranbir in January for Yash Raj's next Sidharth Anad will direct it. It's not titled yet. After that I will be working on Nikhil Advani's Made In China opposite Akshay Kumar."

Deepika was in the news for various reasons: Earlier because of her affair with Ranbir Kapoor and then thanks to an alleged romantic liaison with Indian ODI skipper MS Dhoni. When asked how she deals with controversies, she says, "It really doesn't matter to me. I know what I am all about, and that's all that matters!"

Deepika seems to have learnt the ropes of B-town already saying things that are politically correct well it seems natural that she is the next logical successor to Aishwarya’s throne and she is definitely making the effort to get there. With her reading almost five film scripts a week and signing films like Made In China opposite Akshay Kumar and Yash Raj’s next and being considered for the lead opposite Hrithik in Krrish’s sequel she is surely the next Aishawarya in the making.
