Only this time Deepika Padukone found a rather worthy opponent in her co-star the multitalented National Award winning actor, Irrfan Khan. An insider present on the sets revealed "They were sitting together one day and Irrfan asked Deepika if she would play a game of badminton since he saw some racquets lying around. Ever since then, the two have been hooked to the sport. Whenever they get a few minutes off from work, they head to play out".
The source further added that what started out as friendly games soon turned into a competition of sorts between them. The talented actors also started keeping a count of the games they won and lost. Actor Irrfan Khan confirmed saying "I had to play better than Deepika and you must understand that it was a real task. I have asked her to give me some time [to prepare] so we can have a proper a match soon".
Must say, this is one match that all of us will be keenly waiting to watch.
