Irrfan Khan on Deepika Padukone: I like her very much, as a human being, as an actor!

Irrfan Khan and Deepika Padukone, who shared the screen in the 2015 critically acclaimed movie ‘Piku’, are all set to unite in Vishal Bhardwaj’s next film which is an adaptation of S Hussain Zaidi's book ‘Mafia Queens of Mumbai’. The book is based on the life and times of Ashraf Khan who is popularly known as Sapna Didi. And the book also explores the lives of some of the women and how they were able to make their way up in what was certainly a man's world during the terror of underworld.

While talking to a senior journalist, Irrfan shared his experience of working with Deepika in Piku. He said, “This name, Deepika Padukone, it does something to me. I like her very much, as a human being, as an actor. I still remember when we did Piku, we never interacted that much before shooting. But we used to interact while shooting and I used to see her spontaneous response to my thing.”

The talented actors, when worked together, have created magic and we expect that the same happens this time too.
