India was well-represented by Desi girl Deepika Padukone at last night’s 77th British Academy Film Awards in London. Wearing a pale shimmering Sabyasachi saree, her hair styled up, and her go-to smoky eyes for beauty, Deepika presented an award at the ceremony for Best Film Not In The English Language, which was won by director Jonathan Glazer’s The Zone of Interest.

The Internet examined Deepika’s ensemble and declared it to be perfect. Comments on photos that Deepika Padukone uploaded prior to the BAFTAs praised her choice of saree as well as her styling. The Internet was also reminded by Deepika’s timeless appearance of one from her very first movie, 2007’s ‘Om Shanti Om’, in which Shah Rukh Khan co-starred.

Deepika Padukone turn heads:

In ‘Om Shanti Om’, Deepika Padukone portrayed two characters: the tragic movie star Shantipriya and her twin Sandy. The Internet was feeling the vibes, even though Deepika’s BAFTA saree didn’t resemble the late-1970s attire she wore as Shantipriya.

“Deepika, you are and always will be famous,” was the comment that was left on her post. Another person said, “Alexa, play Aankhon Mein Teri from Om Shanti Om,” referencing a well-known song from the movie. “Deepika Padukone, the dreamy girl,” wrote a fan. Shantipriya was dubbed “Dreamy Girl” in ‘Om Shanti Om’, a reference to Hema Malini’s moniker Dream Girl. “Shantipriya is back,” another admirer commented. Check out some of the most viral reactions below.

Following ‘Om Shanti Om’, Deepika Padukone and Shah Rukh Khan reunited for a number of films, including ‘Happy New Year’, ‘Pathaan’, and ‘Jawan’. She appeared in Fighter‘ opposite Hrithik Roshan as an Air Force officer, and her next film is ‘Kalki 2898 AD‘ with Prabhas. Deepika has gained international recognition in the past few years. She presented at the Oscars last year and served on the Cannes Film Festival jury in 2022, during which she donned two sarees.

Fans cannot wait to see more of the actress on the big screens. The netizens are eagerly anticipating the upcoming movie of the Bollywood diva.
