In no time, netizens flooded Deepika’s comment section with congratulatory wishes. Her husband, Ranveer Singh, shared an angel face and clapping hands emoji. Actress Neha Dhupia commented, “can’t wait to watch you, Deepu.” Many fans also chimed in to congratulate the star. “No one is doing it like Deepika Padukone,” wrote one. Another lauded the fact that many Bollywood actresses like Padukone and Priyanka Chopra were going global.
This is not the first time that Deepika has made India proud. Last year at Cannes, the Pathaan actor was on the list of the jury.
On March 1, Padukone shared that she would be the face of Qatar Airways. “Thrilled to be announced global ambassador,” her caption reads.
