The
Lafangey
Parindey
heroine,
Deepika
Padukone,
still
goes
speechless
if
asked
about
Shahrukh
Khan.
Shahrukh,
who
starred
opposite
Deepika
in
her
debut
film
Om
Shanti
Om,
has
played
an
important
role
in
shaping
her
Bollywood
career.
Deepika
accepts
that
whatever
she
does,
she
can't
get
over
Shahrukh.
She
says,
“While
Shahrukh
was
talking,
all
I
did
was
sit
quiet
and
listen.
This
always
happens
to
me!
Every
time
I
think
I'm
going
to
meet
him
and
I
have
soo
much
to
say,
then
one
look
at
him
and
I
blankout!!"
Being
the
first
timer
in
the
film
Om
Shanti
Om,
Deepika
played
the
role
of
Shantipriya
with
ease,
and
all
the
credit
goes
to
the
unit
of
the
film
and
above
all
to
King
Khan,
who
made
her
feel
so
comfortable
that,
she
never
felt
conscious
about
working
with
a
superstar.
Surely,
the
respect
and
the
realization
of
Shahrukh's
more
experience
and
knowledge
in
the
acting
field,
keeps
Deepika
tight
lipped
when
it
comes
to
sharing
space
with
Shahrukh
Khan.
