Here’s how Anushka Sharma chose to admire Deepika Padukone’s red-carpet look at Cannes Film Festival 2018

While Deepika Padukone’s recent Met Gala look was questioned a lot, the ‘Padmaavat’ actor has quite blown away everyone with her red-carpet appearance at Cannes this year. She looked spectacular. The leggy lass flaunted her toned bod in a pink high low hem gown featuring layers of dramatic ruffles and shoulders that mimic angel wings.

On one hand, where ‘Padmaavat’ actor’s fans were all praise about her, on the other hand, rumoured boyfriend Ranveer Singh’s compliments to Deepika were a proof that he went gaga.

Talking about compliments, one of Deepika’s contemporary actors, Anushka Sharma too couldn’t resist but appreciate how beautiful DP looked at the Cannes Film Festival.

Anushka Sharma took a moment to comment on her picture from the red-carpet. She wrote, “Deepika you looked absolutely stunning on the carpet”
And Deepika was generous enough to respond by, “Thank you so much Anushka!! Lots of love”

While a lot of things are said and written about their relationship, it seems that it’s fortunately all well.

Anushka had earlier said about Deepika in an earlier interview that there’s no scope of comparison between Deepika and her. She said that even the kind of films they do are different.

Veteran actress Rekha pens an emotional letter to Aishwarya Rai Bachchan on completing two decades in Bollywood

Bollywood beauty Aishwarya Rai Bachchan completed two glorious decades in the Industry and on this special occasion veteran actress Rekha penned down an emotional letter addressing and appreciating her journey in the showbiz.
Calling the 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil' actress a 'Phoenix', Rekha mentioned about her 'most cherished character' played by the lovely actress.

Rekha's heart-warming words in the letter for Aishwarya read as:
"My Ash,
A woman like you who is in harmony with her spirit is like a flowing river, never stagnant. She goes where she wants to without pretence; and arrives at her destination prepared to be herself and only herself. People may forget what you said, they may also forget what you did but they will never forget how you made them feel. You are a living example that courage is the most important of all the virtues because, without courage, you can’t practice any other virtue consistently! Your deep strength and pure energy introduce you even before you speak!
The worst thing you did was to be present with the ‘present’ with gratitude. You pursued the things you loved doing, and then did them so well that people can’t take their eyes off you! You on your own are enough with nothing to prove to anyone. Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the moments that take our breath away.
You’ve come a long way, baby. Having endured many hurdles, like the phoenix you rise! And I cannot pen down in words how proud I am of that little ‘cool’ moon-faced girl who took my breath away the very instant I first laid my eyes on her. You always gave better than the best to all the roles you were bestowed with but my most cherished character of yours is the role of the complete ‘Amma’ that you are, to the little bundle of pure joy called Aaradhya.
Keep loving and spreading your magic. Two decades of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan- wow!
Aashirwads and duas I wish for you more goodness and blessings; much more than your heart can contain!
Love you. Jeete raho. Rekha Maa"

Aishwarya, who after winning the Miss World crown in 1994 made her big screen debut in Mani Ratnam's 'Iruvar' has ever since been swooning the audience with her stellar performances and mesmerising good looks. On the latest, Aishwarya will soon be seen in Atul Manjrekar's 'Fanne Khan' which also stars Anil Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao in pivotal roles.

Jio Filmfare Awards Marathi 2017: Madhuri Dixit praises Deepika Padukone's 'Padmavati' song 'Ghoomar'

We saw two of the most beautiful actresses, Madhuri Dixit and Deepika Padukone pose together for pictures when they met at the Jio Filmfare Awards Marathi 2017 in Mumbai, on Friday night.

While the cameras kept flashing, the two ladies exchanged greetings and a few kind words. It was there that Madhuri told Deepika how stunning she was in the 'Padmavati' folk song 'Ghoomar'.

The makers of the Sanjay Leela Bhansali directorial recently released the song featuring Deepika, which has been receiving great response from fans, critics and celebrities alike. As if crossing the 10 million mark on YouTube wasn't enough proof, many have been taking to their social media accounts to sing praises of the actress.

But, we can bet that no compliment will be as great for Deepika than winning a seal of approval from the dancing queen herself. A source present at the award function also tells us that both ladies also discussed their director - Sanjay Leela Bhansali.

He is known to have found his muse in both these actresses. While Madhuri worked with him in 'Devdas', it is Deepika's third back-to-back collaboration with him after 'Bajirao Mastani' and 'Goliyon Ki Rasleela Ram-Leela'.

Recently, Kareena Kapoor Khan, in an interview praised Priyanka Chopra for her diligence towards her work and making it big in Hollywood.

When Priyanka Chopra was recently quizzed about the same and asked to comment on the compliment Kareena gave her, she said, "Thank you for acknowledging my work. I really admire her for being that way for me. I am grateful for words that came from her." Now, who says that two actresses can't be friends?

Look what Kareena Kapoor has to say about Priyanka Chopra

The world knows how Kareena Kapoor Khan and Priyanka Chopra have always been arch rivals ever since they worked together in 'Aitraaz' in which PeeCee, through her brilliant performance of a villain, stole the entire limelight from Bebo. Interestingly, they never shared screen together after 'Aitraaz'. However it seems both Kareena and Priyanka have let bygones be bygones and this is truly evident from what the former said about the latter during her media interactions. Priyanka is already taking Hollywood by storm and Bebo seems to be very proud of her. "I really respect Priyanka for having that zest. She is a global icon and probably the only mainstream actress to put India on a global map. In fact, I feel that because of her, we are being recognised outside India as well." This, coming from Kareena, is really heartwarming. For those not in the know, few moons ago, Priyanka was shooting at a suburban Mumbai studio and when she got to know that Kareena too was shooting at an adjacent floor, PeeCee went and met her and they both had a hearty chat over lunch.

Kareena's statement about Priyanka assures that she probably won't have any 'aitraaz' working with Priyanka now. Click on the next slide to know which other actresses went on a praising spree for their arch rivals...

Soon after Deepika Padukone signed her first Hollywood project, ‘xXx: The Return Of Xander Cage’ with Vin Diesel, news about Priyanka Chopra too bagging her first international movie, ‘Baywatch,’ emerged where she will be seen donning the role of a villain. This gave rise to rumours of a possible rivalry between two leading Bollywood ladies. But Priyanka’s latest tweet has put all rumours to rest. A while ago, Deepika’s ‘xXx’ co-star, Ruby Rose complemented Pee Cee’s hair in a tweet that read, “Ruby Rose joked about Priyanka’s show ‘Quantico’ and said, "I thought the Quantico ad was a Pantene ad.

Kriti Sanon confesses she was scared of her Dilwale co-star

It is not uncommon for newcomers to be thrilled and at the same time be a little nervous around senior actors, let alone working with legends like Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol. It was only natural for one-film old, Kriti Sanon to be dealing with nerves while working with the two in Dilwale. In an interview with DNA, the actress spoke at length about her experience working with SRK and Kajol where she embarrassingly admitted that she was more scared of Kajol than SRK. Why you ask? Well, that’s because Kriti got the chance to spend ample time with SRK before they actually gave a shot together and this made her comfortable with King Khan. This, however, wasn’t the case with Kajol. But despite her intimidation, Kriti went on to praise Kajol saying that the latter was a great actor and that she (Kajol) even gave her (Kriti) suggestions to improve and improvise.

While actresses are more often than not associated with catfights and rivalry, this wasn’t the first time an actress admired and praised another. There have been quite a few instances in the past too. Read on to find out what Kareena Kapoor has to say about Kangana Ranaut...
