Deepika Padukone filmography
Deepika Padukone is an Indian actress who appears in Hindi-language films. Her first screen appearance was in Himesh Reshammiya’s music video “Naam Hai Tera” in 2005. Padukone made her film debut by playing the titular role in the Kannada-language film Aishwarya (2006). Her first Hindi film release came the following year with Farah Khan’s melodrama Om Shanti Om, in which she played dual roles opposite Shah Rukh Khan. For her performance, she won the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut and also received a Best Actress nomination. Her sole film role in 2008 was as one of Ranbir Kapoor’s love interests in Bachna Ae Haseeno.

Padukone’s first film release of 2009, the kung fu comedy Chandni Chowk to China opposite Akshay Kumar, proved to be a box office flop. However, her next release, Imtiaz Ali’s romance Love Aaj Kal grossed ₹1.2 billion (US$17 million) worldwide, and garnered her a second Best Actress nomination at Filmfare. Padukone had five film releases in 2010. The comedy Housefull was a commercial success, though her other four releases failed at the box office. The series of poorly received films continued with both her 2011 releases—the drama Aarakshan and the comedy Desi Boyz. The acclaimed role of an impulsive party-girl in Homi Adajania’s Cocktail (2012) proved to be a breakthrough for Padukone and she received several acting nominations for it.

Padukone found further success in 2013 when all four of her films were box office hits. Among these were two of the highest-grossing Indian films—the romantic comedies Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani and Chennai Express. She also won the Filmfare Award for Best Actress for playing a character based on Juliet in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s tragic romance Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela (2013). In 2014, Padukone appeared in the Tamil animation film Kochadaiiyaan and played a bar dancer in the top-grossing heist film Happy New Year. The following year, she played a headstrong architect in Shoojit Sircar’s acclaimed comedy-drama Piku, which earned Padukone her second Best Actress award at Filmfare, and portrayed the warrior Mastani in Bhansali’s highly successful historical romance Bajirao Mastani. Padukone’s first project in Hollywood—the action film xXx: Return of Xander Cage (2017)—earned over US$345 million worldwide. Padukone’s highest-grossing Indian release came in 2018 with Bhansali’s ₹5.45 billion (US$76 million)-grossing period drama Padmaavat, in which she portrayed the titular role of Rani Padmavati.
