Deepika, 31, says she has always admired Katrina for her hardwork and dedication.
"I think compliments are always great especially when it comes from your contemporaries it is even better. Thank you for that. I have always appreciated and admired her in her life and career.
"I am sure it's not been an easy journey and I have always appreciated and admired that," Deepika told reporters here at an event.
When asked about the massive success of 'Baahubali: The Conclusion,' Deepika said, "The possibilities are endless and limitless that's the reason I do a film like 'xXx: Return Of Xander Cage' and Priyanka Chopra does what she is doing (referring to Hollywood projects) as there is no limit to creativity.
"Whether it is us representing India globally or a 'Baahubali' which is a regional film that is breaking barriers and crossing boundaries and become a success it shows the possibilities are endless."
