Deepika Padukone is one serious actress who doesn't mix her personal life with her professional one. She has recently signed on a film, produced by Kunal Kohli, opposite Imran Khan, despite the fact that he is her ex-boyfriend Ranbir Kapoor's best friend.

The film will be directed by debutant director Danish Aslam, who is Kunal's assistant.

A source says, "Post her breakup with Ranbir, Deepika is taking on more and more assignments to keep herself busy. She now wants to focus on her career and make all the right moves. She has signed films with Ashutosh Gowariker and Yash Raj Films.

Danish's film, which is jointly produced by Kunal Kohli and Big Pictures, is another big film in her kitty. Deepika is very excited about it. She chose to sign the film despite Imran being Ranbir's close friend as she has moved on. She doesn't want to mix her personal life with her professional life."

When enquired Kunal Kohli, the producer confirmed the news and said, "It's true. We have finalised Imran and Deepika for the film. We are hoping to start the film early next year. It`s a love story and we are yet to find a title for the film. Danish will be making his debut as a director with this film."
