An ex-classmate of Deepika Padukone spills the beans on how she was in college

Actress Deepika Padukone has no starry tantrums and she has always behaved with a lot of grace during promotions and other events. You will always see her at her best behaviour as she smiles away flaunting those dimples for her million fans. (Also Read: Deepika Padukone ignores questions on ‘Padmavati’ controversy)

The actress doesn’t belong to a star family, but she belongs to a sports family as her father, Prakash Padukone is a national level badminton player. She has surely imbibed some qualities from her parents as we came across this post written by an ex-classmate of hers on Quora.

The post has gone viral for all the right reasons as the classmate talks about how Deepika used to be in college and after reading it, one can truly realise that the lady is still the same.

Read on below to see what she wrote:

“She was my classmate at Mount Carmel College for 6 months before she moved to Bombay for ‘Om Shanti Om’. She used to keep bunking classes due to her professional commitments- badminton and modelling. I think she lost a lot of attendance because of that and that’s why decided to leave college…

But on the days that she used to visit college- she would come straight from the baddy court at Padukone Academy that’s down the road- she would be sweaty and still in her track pants. This is quite a big deal because MCC is like a fashion capital in Bangalore and all the girls are always dressed to the nines- a lot of them used to wear 4-5 inch heels as well, and this super model would be in black trackpants with jacket and zero make-up, her hair in a braid or a ponytail.

I once stood behind her in a queue to pay fees and I literally couldn’t see anything in front of me- she is that tall! I always felt she was quiet and well-mannered. Sitting in the last bench, not very studious, but a sweet girl.That doesn’t mean she didn’t have fun! She had a lot of male attention, but then all MCC girls got a lot of male attention- guys would flock outside the gates of the college…” [sic]

Such a nicely-written piece on Deepika, right?
