Firstly, this photo of Deepika Padukone is from the movie ‘Chandni Chowk to China’ which starred her opposite Akshay Kumar. In the movie, she played dual characters of an Indian and a Chinese. However, the movie tanked at the box office. Anyway, coming back to the point, kudos to Kundan’s pun powers. Deepika’s fringe from ‘Chandni Chowk To China’ connected to the fringe groups threatening her. This man can truly play with words and make us laugh.

Every single day, we witness new developments building up on ‘Padmavati’ controversy, whether it is Karni Sena threatening Bhansali and the lead actors, or even the people coming out in support of the movie. As far as Karni Sena is concerned, whether it was assaulting Bhansali on the Jaipur sets, or threatening him and the stars, or even vandalising theatres, they have been trying their level best to halt the release of the movie. The members also threatened to physically harm Deepika for her recent comment which said that ‘Nothing can stop the movie’s release’. However, Deepika continues to promote the movie.

‘Padmavati’ also stars Ranveer Singh and Shahid Kapoor in lead roles and will be releasing on December 1, 2017.
