Deepika Padukone may be one of the biggest A-list actresses in Bollywood but she also one of the most humble actresses. Extremely talented and versatile, Deepika recently got featured in an International women's magazine. Deepika was praised for her contribution to cinema and for partaking in philanthropic efforts. The magazine introduced the actress as, "The star of the recent Bollywood blockbuster 'Padmaavat' faced death threats and verbal abuse from various fringe groups with poise and elan. Padukone, whose father, Prakash, was a star badminton player, used to participate in the sport before becoming a model."
It further read as, "She is now one of the highest-paid Indian actresses and has made the leap from Bollywood movies such as 'Om Shanti Om' and 'Chennai Express' to Hollywood titles including 'xXx: Return of Xander Cage' last year. She is also philanthropically active, starting her own Live Laugh Love Foundation, which focuses on mental illness." The list also featured Gal Gadot, Daisy Ridley, Nicole Kidman, and Salma Hayek who were among its women dignitaries. Deepika thanked the magazine in a tweet and wrote, "honoured & humbled joining these amazing achievers!Thank You"
