Mumbai (PTI): Deepika Padukone is one of the highest-paid stars currently working in Bollywood, but the actor is not ready to talk about money matters.
“Talking about my remuneration isn’t exciting. But I am proud and confident about the money I get. You are comfortable with what you are paid. But what makes me happy is that they (producers) have invested so much money in a film which has a poster featuring me on it….That makes me proud,” said Padukone during the 3D trailer launch of the film at a suburban multiplex here.
“In terms of scale, budget and resources, it’s a huge film. We have seen strong female parts at the fore on screen in different films in different ways. I think this (“Padmavati”) is the beginning of great things women have in films,” she added.
A right-wing outfit had objected to the screening of the trailer, but adequate security arrangements were made with over a dozen policemen stationed at the venue.
The film is set to release on December 1.
