Hopefully,
Deepika
Padukone's
'lungi'
and
shirt
look
from
Chennai
Express
posters
does
not
spark
a
trend
but
it
has
certainly
made
everyone
do
a
double
take.
The
actress
reveals
that
film's
lead
actor
Shahrukh
Khan
and
director
Rohit
Shetty
came
up
with
the
idea
to
dress
her
in
a
'lungi'.
"That's
something
new
and
I
hope
it
works," says
Deepika
about
her
look.
"The
idea
to
wear
a
'lungi'
is
not
mine
actually.
It
was
Shahrukh
and
Rohit
who
came
up
with
it.
We
had
to
quickly
do
a
photoshoot
because
we
were
losing
the
light.
They
were
like
'Why
don't
we
give
her
this
'lungi'
and
make
her
look
modern'.
The
shirt
that
I
am
wearing
in
the
posters
also
belongs
to
SRK,
only
the
sunglasses
are
mine," the
actress
told
PTI.
The
potboiler,
which
reunites
Deepika
with
SRK
onscreen
after
her
debut
in
Om
Shanti
Om,
is
slated
to
release
this
year.
Deepika,
fresh
from
the
success
of
Race
2,
is
looking
forward
to
back-to-back
releases
this
year.
"It
has
been
a
good
year
but
my
next
six
months
are
very
demanding
in
terms
of
my
schedule.
I
hope
all
the
hard
work
pays.
I
have
Chennai
Express,
and
Kochadaiyaan
with
Rajini
(Rajinikanth)
sir,
which
is
also
ready
for
release,"
says
Deepika.
She
has
two
other
films
-Yeh
Jawaani
Hai
Deewani,
her
film
will
Ranbir
Kapoor
and
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali's
Ram
Leela.
There
were
reports
that
she
may
star
in
Salman
Khan's
Kick
but
the
actress
denies
it.
"That's
all
speculation.
It
probably
stems
from
the
fact
that
I
had
expressed
a
desire
to
work
with
Salman
Khan.
Maybe
these
stories
are
coming
from
there.
There
is
nothing
concrete
on
that
film
yet."
