“Saif Is Like A Child And Needs To Be Taken Care Of” : Says Deepika Padukone

After the failure of her film Chandni Chowk To China, Deepika Padukone has refused to comment on reports that she has proved unlucky for co-star Akshay Kumar.

“Of course, I am disappointed with the film’s failure. But, that does not stop me from looking at the brighter side. My work was appreciated and I learned a lot from the film. I will better myself as an actor,” she said.

Speaking about her next release, Love Aajkal with Saif Ali Khan, Deepika said she always wanted to work with director Imtiaz Ali. “I play Meera, a girl of today who has to deal with relationships. She is a modern young woman but traditional to the core. She follows her heart,” she added.

Deepika described co-star Saif Ali Khan as a brilliant actor. “He is like a child and needs to be taken care of,” she added.

Deepika was talking to reporters at the press conference to announce the launch of Idea cellular as the new sponsors of 54th Filmfare awards which will take place on February 28. Source
