Deepika Padukone, who is currently shooting for Finding Fanny Fernandes in Goa, is required to be in Dubai for the promotion of her next Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Ram Leela in the first week of November.
The actress wanted two days off for Diwali around the same time as she was keen to spend time with her family in Bangalore. However, she was told that there is no way the dates of the promotional activity in the desert emirate can be changed.
So, instead, Dippy planned the next best thing. She asked the producers to make travel arrangement for her family to travel with her. She is said to have requested them to at least accomodate one family member if they can't arrange for all. Confirming this, Deepika says, `I really look forward to Diwali as it is my favourite festivals. This year though, I will by promoting Ram-Leela. It's a special film for me.`
