After Shah Rukh Khan and John Abraham, Deepika Padukone is the latest to join the unit of 'Pathan'. Over the weekend, she was spotted on the set of Siddharth Anand's directorial venture. Though her role is under wraps, it is said that she will be seen at her âfittest and hottest best' in the film. Dippy is slated to shoot for the Yash Raj production till the action thriller's schedule wraps up later this month.
Deepika Padukone, who was on a break ever since the Maharashtra government announced the lockdown, has an interesting line-up of films for the upcoming years. The first one would be with Shah Rukh Khan and John Abraham titled âPathan'. She also has Kabir Khan's â83' with Ranveer Singh, an untitled film with Siddhant Chaturvedi and Ananya Panday.
Apart from this, Deepika Padukone will be seen portraying a popular mythological character, âDraupadi', which is likely to be a trilogy. Her âThe Intern' is a remake with Amitabh Bachchan, and an opus with Bachchan again that also stars Prabhas.
Talking about âPathan', sources close to the unit reveal that the cast and crew will get tested over the weekend. "It will be a seven-to-10-day schedule that will take place at Yash Raj studio in Andheri, in a bio-bubble. Aditya sir [Chopra, producer] is clear that only those who have been vaccinated can be part of the team. Siddharth has an international schedule pending, but that will happen later. Given the current scenario, they plan to shoot in short stints," reveals a source.
