Deepika Padukone filmography

Padukone in 2019

Indian actress Deepika Padukone primarily appears in Hindi films. Her first screen appearance was in Himesh Reshammiya's music video "Naam Hai Tera" in 2005.[1] Padukone made her film debut by playing the title role in the Kannada-language film Aishwarya (2006).[2] Her first Hindi film release came the following year with Farah Khan's melodrama Om Shanti Om, in which she played dual roles opposite Shah Rukh Khan.[3] She won the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut for it.[4] Her sole film role in 2008 was as one of Ranbir Kapoor's love interests in Bachna Ae Haseeno.[5] Padukone's first film release of 2009, the kung fu comedy Chandni Chowk to China, proved to be a box office flop, but her next release, Imtiaz Ali's romance Love Aaj Kal, opposite Saif Ali Khan, was a success.[6][7][8] Of Padukone's five film releases in 2010, only the comedy Housefull was financially profitable.[8][9] The series of poorly received films continued with both her 2011 releases, Aarakshan and Desi Boyz.[10]

The acclaimed role of an impulsive party-girl in Homi Adajania's Cocktail (2012) proved to be a breakthrough for Padukone.[10][11][12] The year 2013 was key for Padukone when all four of her films were box office hits.[13] Among these were two of the highest-grossing Indian films—the romantic comedies Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani and Chennai Express.[14] She also won the Filmfare Award for Best Actress for playing a character based on Juliet in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's tragic romance Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela (2013).[15][16] In 2014, Padukone appeared in the Tamil animation film Kochadaiiyaan and played a bar dancer in the top-grossing heist film Happy New Year.[17][18][19] The following year, she played a headstrong daughter in Shoojit Sircar's comedy-drama Piku, which earned Padukone her second Best Actress award at Filmfare, and portrayed the warrior Mastani in Bhansali's top-grossing historical romance Bajirao Mastani.[20][21][22][23]

Padukone's first project in Hollywood—the action film XXX: Return of Xander Cage (2017)—earned over US$345 million worldwide.[24] In 2018, she reunited with Bhansali in another top-grossing period film, Padmaavat, in which she portrayed the title role of Rani Padmavati.[25][26] After a small break from acting, she starred in Chhapaak (2020) and 83 (2021), both produced under her own company Ka Productions, but they were not financially profitable.[27] In 2023, Padukone reunited with Shah Rukh Khan in the action films Pathaan and Jawan. Both earned over ₹10 billion (US$120 million) to emerge as her highest-grossing Indian releases.[28][29] The following year, she starred in the action film Fighter and the science fiction film Kalki 2898 AD, both of which were among the year's top-grossing Indian films.[30]
