Deepika Padukone is ecstatic about her next release Love Aaj Kal. The movie, co-starring Saif Ali Khan and directed by Imtiaz Ali, is most special to Deepika since her debut Om Shanti Om even though she’s done two films Bachna Ae Haseenoand Chandni Chowk To China in between.
In an interview to a news agency, the actress enumerates three reasons why the movie is special to her and why the audience should not miss it when it releases on July 31.
“First, the film's storyline is such that any common man can relate to it. It's so real and, as you watch the film, you would feel that so many instances shown in it have happened to you too in real life.
“Second, the film has a universal appeal. Whether it's the younger or the older generation, all will be able to identify with the proceedings. Imtiaz has a knack for keeping things basic and very simple, something that the world saw in Jab We Met and Socha Na Tha. His trademark touch is prevalent in ‘Love Aaj Kal’ too,” Deepika is quoted as saying. The third reason why Deepika is really ecstatic is the dialogues that promise to be as natural as they get.
“Dialogues are such that they are more of conversational variety rather than sounding scripted. Imtiaz wanted all of us to perform rather than plain and simple mug up our dialogues and rattle them down. Yes, there was a dialogue sheet given, but it was mainly for reference,” she said.
The film has Deepika playing double roles. She plays the Punjabi woman Harleen Kaur and also a modern girl Meera living in London.
“I'm aware of the huge expectations that audiences have from 'Love Aaj Kal'. Personally speaking though, the film is beyond expectations for me. I would rather call it a very special film,” Deepika said.
