Deepika Padukone wants to be a Delhi University Student
The hot and gorgeous Deepika Padukone has expressed her desire to do a movie in which she plays a Delhi University Student.
Colleges like LSR, Hansraj, Miranda House and St Stephen tops in her list of interest. She says, “I would love to do a film in which I play a DU student may be from LSR, Hansraj, Miranda House or St Stephen College. It would be fun.”
According to Padukone, she wouldn’t wait for a minute if she gets any such offer. Besides, since has never studied in Delhi, the charm of the capital always attracts her.
“I have worked in movies that are set in Delhi, but have never got an opportunity to work in a film, where I play a DU student, which is why I am looking forward to it,” says Deepika.
Though not for Deepika, but some actors in Bollywood have had an opportunity to play DU students in their flicks. Click to find them in this photo feature…
