In
2014,
actress
Deepika
Padukone
got
an
oppurtunity
to
work
with
Rajinikanth
and
left
her
fans
quite
enthralled
about
Kochadaiiyaan.
While
the
film
performed
well
in
the
South,
it
failed
to
create
magic
in
other
parts
of
India.
During
the
promotion
of
the
film,
Deepika
had
shared
her
experience
of
working
with
the
'Thalaiva'
and
said
that
he
is
like
a
child
in
the
candy
shop.
While
speaking
to
Rediff,
Deepika
had
said,
"We
were
shooting
without
co-stars,
so
I
couldn't
spend
a
lot
of
time
with
him.
We
actually
got
a
day
and
a
half
together.
I
had
to
do
only
three
days
of
work.
What
I
really
take
back
from
my
interaction
with
Rajini
sir
is
his
simplicity
and
his
humbleness.
This
is
something
we
can
all
learn.
He
is
like
a
child
in
a
candy
shop.
I
have
never
seen
an
actor
more
excited
than
him
on
the
sets."
She
had
further
added
that
he
comes
on
the
sets
with
full
energy,
greets
everyone
and
treats
his
daughter
like
a
director.
Boasting
about
his
enthusiasm,
Deepika
had
said
that
even
if
the
director
okays
the
shot,
he
wants
to
keep
perfecting
it.
"It
is
amazing
that
after
working
for
so
many
years,
his
enthusiasm
hasn't
changed.
I've
always
admired
him
as
a
person
and
for
his
achievements.
He
and
Amitji
(Amitabh
Bachchan)
are
two
actors,
who
are
so
excited
you
can
see
the
passion
in
their
eyes," added
the
Piku
actress.
With
respect
to
work,
Deepika
is
currently
standing
at
the
peak
of
her
career.
She
will
next
be
seen
in
83,
Pathan,
Fighter,
The
Intern,
Mahabharat,
Shakun
Batra's
next
and
Nag
Ashwin's
multilingual
film.
