Deepika
Padukone
is
one
of
the
most
success
actresses
in
Bollywood.
The
leggy
lass
has
been
a
part
of
several
blockbusters
and
have
received
critically
acclaim
for
many
of
her
perfomances.
Not
just
that,
she
is
even
one
of
the
highest
paid
actresses
in
the
tinsel
town
today.
In
an
interview
with
Filmfare,
when
Deepika
was
asked
whether
she
feels
overwhelmed
about
this,
here's
what
she
had
to
say.
Deepika
quipped,
"I
would
be
worried
if
I
was
labelled
for
the
kind
of
kind
I
did
-
say
if
someone
referred
to
be
as
a
'bubbly'
actor
or
as
an
actor
who
can
only
do
a
certain
type
of
films.
That
sort
of
classification
would
worry
me.
That's
something
that
happens
in
our
film
industry.
The
generic
tags
of
being
a
superstar
or
being
well
paid
don't
affect
me
at
all.
I
feel
proud
that
people
call
me
the
highest
paid
actress
in
Hindi
films.
I
also
feel
humbled.
I
have
better
sense
than
to
let
these
titles
affect
me.
Eventually,
it's
the
work
that
matters."
She
further
added,
"The
reason
I
hold
the
title
of
the
highest
paid
actresses
is
because
I'm
able
to
deliver
at
the
box-office.
I
see
that
as
an
achievement
not
just
for
myself
but
for
women
around
the
world.
Because
it's
not
just
in
the
film
industry
but
in
every
walk
of
professional
life
where
women
are
dealing
with
this
situation.
They
have
to
prove
their
capability
to
be
paid
well
in
keeping
with
their
efforts.
I've
achieved
something
with
this
particular
epithet.
But
there's
still
a
long
way
to
go."
Now,
that's
aptly
said,
Dippy!
Talking
about
films,
the
stunning
actress
will
be
next
seen
in
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali's
magnum
opus
Padmavati
co-starring
Ranveer
Singh
and
Shahid
Kapoor.
