Biography Deepika Padukone, born 5th January 1986 in Copenhagen, Denmark, is an Indian model and actress with a height of 5’ 8 ½. She is the daughter of former badminton champion Prakash Padukone. Her mother tongue is Konkani. Deepika has a younger sister named Anisha. She has been modelling appearances in print and television advertising campaigns for Liril, Close-‐Up toothpaste and Limca, receiving many prestigious modelling offers, including brand ambassadorship of the Jewels of India, an annual jewellery exhibition. She hit the international scene why Maybelline made their new international cover-‐girl face. At the fifth annual Kingfisher Fashion Awards, for Indian models and designers, she was awarded the title of ‘Model of the Year. Shortly afterwards, she was chosen as on of the models for the Kingfisher Swimsuit Calendar for 2006, thus cementing her reputation as a supermodel. At the age of 21, Padukone relocated to Mumbai and stayed at her aunt's home. That year, she gained wider recognition by featuring in the music video for Himesh Reshammiya's song “Naam Hai Tera”. Padukone soon began to receive offers for film roles. Believing herself to be too inexperienced as an actor, she instead enrolled for a course at Anupam Kher's film academy. Following much media speculation, the director Farah Khan, who had noticed her in Reshammiya's music video, made the decision to cast her for a role in Happy New Year. Padukone announced in 2006 that she would make her film debut with Aishwarya, a Kannada film directed by Indrajit Lankesh. By the end of 2006, Farah Khan's Happy New Year was shelved, and Khan had instead cast Padukone for the reincarnation melodrama Om Shanti Om (2007). Bollywood Hungama reported that the success of Om Shanti Om proved a breakthrough for Padukone. Her latest appearance is in Farah Khan’s Happy New Year. She has starred in a total of 22 Bollywood-‐Hindi films excluding her special appearances in songs.
