It started because Deepika Padukone is way junior than Kareena Kapoor, and has become one of the most sought after actresses in Bollywood. Deepika Padukone has proved her mettle with films like Race 2, Cocktail, Yeh Jawaani Hain Deewani and Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela.
Interestingly, Dips hit it off well with Kareena Kapoor Khan's beau Saif Ali Khan and the two have worked together in Race 2 and Cocktail.
Kareena was the original choice for Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Ram Leela, but the actress apparently walked out of the project due to the film's intimate scene. The film was later passed on to Padukone.
On season 4 of Koffee with Karan, when KJo asked her what alternate profession should Kareena Kapoor Khan take up, Deepika instantly said charity, hinting at Bebo's generosity at passing on her roles to other actresses that made them famous.
The coming days look very bright for Deepika. She has in her kitty Farah Khan's Happy New Year opposite Shah Rukh Khan and will most certainly be doing Imtiaz Ali's next film with none other than Ranbir Kapoor.
