In
a
career
spanning
more
than
a
decade,
Deepika
Padukone
has
worked
with
many
top
directors
and
entertained
us
with
her
impressive
performances.
Now,
the
actress
is
gearing
up
for
the
release
of
her
upcoming
film
Gehraiyaan.
The
human
drama
is
Deepika's
first
collaboration
with
Shakun
Batra
who
is
known
for
helming
films
like
Kapoor
&
Sons.
Recently
in
a
tete-a-tete
with
Anupama
Chopra
of
Film
Companion,
Deepika
talked
about
how
Shakun's
working
process
is
so
different
than
that
of
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali
with
whom
she
has
teamed
up
on
movies
like
Goliyon
Ki
Raasleela
Ram
Leela,
Bajirao
Mastani
and
Padmaavat.
Deepika
told
Anupama,
"We
basically
say
or
I
have
started
saying
to
him
now
that
if
you
work
with
Shakun
Batra,
you
can
work
on
a
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali
film
because
he's
just
not
happy.
I
am
joking
about
the
complaining
part
of
it
but
I
love
his
process
because
it's
exhausting.
Literally
from
the
time
you
are
on
the
set
to
the
time
you
leave,
actors
are
on
their
feet
the
whole
time,
except
the
lunch
break."
The
Chhapaak
actress
revealed
that
the
whole
process
was
extremely
nimble
which
urged
her
to
know
her
lines
so
well
that
the
setting
or
director's
last-minute
changes
wouldn't
throw
her
off
guard.
Deepika
also
went
on
to
talk
about
how
she
had
the
freedom
to
make
changes
to
the
script
with
Batra
and
Bhansali.
"I
use
a
pencil
to
change
my
dialogues.
Some
writers
are
not
okay
with
that.
They
are
very
sort
of
married
to
the
dialogues
they
write.
You
cannot
change
anything.
Kabir
for
example.
Shakun
or
Sanjay
are
open
to
making
the
dialogues
your
own
as
long
as
you
get
the
essence.
They
are
interested
in
the
essence
and
emotion
of
the
scene
and
what
the
scene
is
trying
to
communicate.
So,
I
mark
up
the
works
that
are
not
sitting
for
me
or
don't
feel
natural...
and
I
write
on
the
side," the
actress
threw
light
on
the
working
process.
Besides
Deepika
Padukone,
Gehraiyaan
also
stars
Ananya
Pandey,
Siddhant
Chaturvedi
and
Dhairya
Karwa.
The
movie
is
slated
to
release
on
February
11
on
Amazon
Prime.
