<p>However, sources close to the movie said to a leading daily:&nbsp;&quot;The Sanjay Dutt biopic is yet to be completed.

<p>While talking about the movie and her look, Manisha had earlier said:&nbsp;&quot;We did a couple of tests, from when she had short hair to when she had long hair.

<p>Talking about Rajkumar Hirani, Manisha said: &quot;Of course I love Hirani&#39;s cinema. He is the most envied director. I did express my concern to him but he told me not to worry about it.

<p>She is undoubtedly the number one star in India currently. But Deepika Padukone wears her stardom lightly. The actress who made a smashing debut opposite superstar Shah Rukh Khan in Om Shanti Om, a decade back, has steadily grown as an actress and has tried to step out of her comfort zone by taking up challenging roles. Be it a period drama, a thriller or a slice-of-life film, Deepika has, in the last 10 years, struck a fine balance juggling varied characters with much ease.<br />
<br />
She has worked with some of the biggest names in Bollywood and has managed to hold her own in&nbsp;those films. On her 32nd birthday, here is a look at the 8 films that made her the superstar that she is.<br />
<br />
<strong>Om Shanti Om:</strong> Many termed it as a dream debut but Farah Khan&#39;s film on reincarnation pitted Deepika against the biggest star of them all-Shah Rukh Khan. Yet the actress managed to pull off the role of Shantipriya with absolute ease and made critics sit up and take notice of the debutant.&nbsp;</p>

<p><iframe allow="encrypted-media" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" gesture="media" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/TjUXr560Gu0" width="560"></iframe><br />
<br />
<strong>Love Aaj Kal:</strong> Imtiaz Ali&#39;s film was an unconventional story of a couple and their lives post break up. With two distinct narratives and soulful music that is till date remembered,<em> Love Aaj Kal </em>was rather a different film. It was also one of the films that came to Deepika early in her career. Paired opposite Saif Ali Khan, Deepika played Meera Pandit a spirited woman who doesn&#39;t let a break up affect her relationship with Jai(Saif).&nbsp;</p>

<p><iframe allow="encrypted-media" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" gesture="media" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/sDne5fEsxec" width="560"></iframe><br />
<br />
<strong>Cocktail:</strong> 2012 proved to be a turning point in Deepika&#39;s career. The actress suddenly broke away from run-of-the-mill roles that she was doing in the past few years and worked in Homi Adajania&#39;s flawed Cocktail. While most had a problem with the film&#39;s convoluted storyline, everyone praised Deepika for her portrayal of Veronica. One had never seen Deepika playing such character before onscreen. Veronica had a heart of gold but had deep insecurities. She was glamorous and sexy and yet wasn&#39;t sure of herself. It was a complicated character to essay but Deepika absolutely nailed the part.&nbsp;</p>

<p><iframe allow="encrypted-media" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" gesture="media" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/q0LehEw6EpM" width="560"></iframe><br />
<br />
<strong>Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani:</strong>There is no denying that Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone make for a stunning pair onscreen. When the former lovers decided to unite on the big screen for Ayan Mukerji&#39;s <em>Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani</em> in 2013, everyone was curious to see whether the awkwardness of the exes would reflect on the big screen as well. But the two managed to create absolute magic making the film one of the best love stories of the decade. While Ranbir played a restless noman, Deepika played the calming factor in his life. The film just a lot of people believe in fairytale romances.&nbsp;</p>

<p><iframe allow="encrypted-media" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" gesture="media" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/QYO6AlxiRE4" width="560"></iframe><br />
<br />
<strong>Chennai Express:</strong>Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone reunited once again for Rohit Shetty&#39;s <em>Chennai Express</em> - a film that had Deepika playing a Tamilian. Armed with a heavy accent, Deepika matched SRK&#39;s acting in every frame. The film was a blockbuster hit and Deepika made her character Meenalochani Azhagusundaram on of the most endearing characters of 2013.&nbsp;</p>

<p><iframe allow="encrypted-media" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" gesture="media" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/V8zXLMIjlcw" width="560"></iframe><br />
<br />
<strong>Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela:</strong> The first film that Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh did with Sanjay Leela Bhansali was an Indian version of Romeo and Juliet. The crackling chemistry of the lead pair was hard to miss and in fact, it was because of these two that <em>Ram Leela</em> became such a hit. It was on the sets of this film that Deepika and Ranveer reportedly started dating. The film fetched her the Best Actress Filmfare award in 2013.&nbsp;</p>

<p><iframe allow="encrypted-media" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" gesture="media" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/szVW_w-W8cQ" width="560"></iframe></p>

<p><strong>Piku:</strong><em>Piku</em> was refreshingly different. Till Piku, Deepika was only known for glamorous, larger than life characters. But Piku presented Deepika as a regular, ordinary girl. A slice-of-life film, the film had Deepika Padukone sharing screen space with two stalwarts- Amitabh Bachchan and Irrfan Khan but it was Deepika who stole the limelight with her portrayal of the ambitious, stubborn and caring Piku.&nbsp;</p>

<p><iframe allow="encrypted-media" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" gesture="media" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/RVRlV53TjzY" width="560"></iframe><br />
<br />
<strong>Bajirao Mastani:</strong> Set in the early 18th century, the film was a tragic story of an extramarital affair. It was also a difficult role to portray physically for Deepika, who had to learn sword fighting, horse riding to play Princess Mastani. Directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, the film also co-starred Ranveer Singh and Priyanka Chopra and together the three actors owned the screen with their powerful performances.&nbsp;</p>

Veronica had a heart of gold but had deep insecurities. She was glamorous and sexy and yet wasn't sure of herself. It was a complicated character to essay but Deepika absolutely nailed the part. Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani:There is no denying that Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone make for a stunning pair onscreen. When the former lovers decided to unite on the big screen for Ayan Mukerji's Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani in 2013, everyone was curious to see whether the awkwardness of the exes would reflect on the big screen as well. But the two managed to create absolute magic making the film one of the best love stories of the decade. While Ranbir played a restless noman, Deepika played the calming factor in his life. The film just a lot of people believe in fairytale romances. Chennai Express:Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone reunited once again for Rohit Shetty's Chennai Express - a film that had Deepika playing a Tamilian. Armed with a heavy accent, Deepika matched SRK's acting in every frame. The film was a blockbuster hit and Deepika made her character Meenalochani Azhagusundaram on of the most endearing characters of 2013. Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela: The first film that Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh did with Sanjay Leela Bhansali was an Indian version of Romeo and Juliet. The crackling chemistry of the lead pair was hard to miss and in fact, it was because of these two that Ram Leela became such a hit. It was on the sets of this film that Deepika and Ranveer reportedly started dating. The film fetched her the Best Actress Filmfare award in 2013. Piku:Piku was refreshingly different. Till Piku, Deepika was only known for glamorous, larger than life characters. But Piku presented Deepika as a regular, ordinary girl. A slice-of-life film, the film had Deepika Padukone sharing screen space with two stalwarts- Amitabh Bachchan and Irrfan Khan but it was Deepika who stole the limelight with her portrayal of the ambitious, stubborn and caring Piku. Bajirao Mastani: Set in the early 18th century, the film was a tragic story of an extramarital affair. It was also a difficult role to portray physically for Deepika, who had to learn sword fighting, horse riding to play Princess Mastani. Directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, the film also co-starred Ranveer Singh and Priyanka Chopra and together the three actors owned the screen with their powerful performances.

<p>Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma&#39;s reception in Mumbai was a gala event. With Bollywood stars, cricketers and industrialists hobnobbing in the crowd, the event was a starry affair.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
From Shah Rukh Khan to Sridevi to Madhuri Dixit to Sachin Tendulkar and MS Dhoni- all were in attendance to wish the couple.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Perhaps the photo of the evening was of Virat and Anushka posing with actor Ranbir Kapoor. Kapoor and Sharma have worked together in Bombay Velvet and the recent Ae Dil Hai Mushkil. The duo are known to be good friends and when the news of Virushka&#39;s wedding broke, Twitter exploded with memes around Ranbir Kapoor and song Channa Mereya.&nbsp;<br />

So on Tuesday night, as Ranbir walked up to wish the newlyweds, the three recreated the Ae Dil Hai Mushkil signature pose much to the delight of the shutterbugs. In the photo Virat is all heart with Ranbir, Anushka continues to &lsquo;friendzone&rsquo; him like she did in the film.&nbsp;</p>

Virat Kohli, Anushka Sharma's Mumbai reception: Ranbir Kapoor recreates 'Ae Dil Hai Muskhil' with the newlyweds

<p>There is no denying that the year 2017 will down in history as the year where newer stories and smaller films took precedence over big-budget formula films. Filmmakers became brave in storytelling in 2017. From illicit romances to erectile dysfunction to falling in love at 40 to a middle-class housewife finding her voice in the most unexpected manner- filmmakers tried to tell newer stories this year. And while a lot of these films got appreciated by critics and masses alike- here is a list of films that did not get its due credit. Presenting the most underrated films of 2017.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
<strong>Haraamkhor:</strong></p>

<p><iframe allow="encrypted-media" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" gesture="media" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/bt7r3RaLbrY" width="560"></iframe></p>

<p>A story of a student falling in love with her teacher would make a lot of people uncomfortable. But filmmaker Shlok Sharma dealt with the story in the most subtle, nuanced manner. Coupled with strong performances by its lead- Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Shweta Triptha-<em>Haraamkhor</em> was a different take on love. Sharma could have gone overboard showing a romance that most deem as scandalous but he broached the topic in a sensitive, mature manner making the film a compelling watch.<br />
<br />
<strong>Anaarkali Of&nbsp;</strong><strong>Aarah</strong></p>

<p><iframe allow="encrypted-media" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" gesture="media" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/jHFT_PdLh20" width="560"></iframe></p>

<p>If<em> Anaarkali of </em><em>Aarah</em> had released a year back, Aniruddha Roy Choudhary&#39;s <em>Pink </em>would have appeared flawed. Journalist turned filmmaker Avinash Das&#39; film spoke about consent, but in a society where the term is almost alien. Centered around Anaarkali whose profession is to sing songs full of sexual innuendoes, the film highlighted the plight of many such women who may sing raunchy songs for a living but are not ready to give sexual favours to men. Anaarkali&#39;s battle may have been a lonely one, but it sure resonated with a lot of women across the country and drove home a very important point- that a &#39;No&#39; means a &#39;No&#39;. While the film was lauded by the critics, its the audience which overlooked the film. Perhaps because of its look or maybe because it did not have a big name in the star cast- but it was a film that will remain relevant in the times to come. &nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
<strong>Meri Pyaari Bindu</strong></p>

<p><iframe allow="encrypted-media" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" gesture="media" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/fTax2lxxAvU" width="560"></iframe></p>

<p>Ayushmann Khurrana had multiple releases this year- making him, along with Rajkummar Rao, the new poster boy of the middle-class. And while people loved him in <em>Shubh Mangal Saavdhan</em> and <em>Bareilly Ki Barfi-</em> his performance in Akshay&nbsp;Roy&#39;s <em>Meri Pyaari Bindu</em> almost went unnoticed. Which is unfortunate because of all the three films, Khurrana was absolutely brilliant as Bubla Roy, the wry, angsty novelist in this film. Paired opposite the vivacious Parineeti Chopra, the film took a fairly realistic approach towards modern romances and heartbreaks. With a beautiful soundtrack, Meri Pyaari Bindu was perhaps the most subtle love story of this year with endering performances by not just the lead pair but the entire supporting cast- who are mainly known faces of Bengali film industry.</p>

<p><br />
<strong>Death In The Gunj</strong></p>

<p><iframe allow="encrypted-media" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" gesture="media" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/nMN8GS2JZ_A" width="560"></iframe></p>

<p>Konkona Sen Sharma&#39;s film was in English and a bit of Bengali, which is perhaps the reason that the film had less commercial viability. But the actress-filmmaker should be given credit for making a film that will remain relevant for decades to come. At the onset, it looked like a mystery thriller about a death in McCluskiegunj where a family gathers for a vacation- but the story ultimately was so much more than that. The film dealt with how a society perceives masculinity and how we always succumb to stereotypes. It had a superlative cast - each performing their character with absolute ease. More importantly, the film made a lot of people sit up and take notice of a fine actor called Vikrant Massey- who as the central character Shutu - gave one of the best performances this year.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
<strong>Trapped</strong></p>

<p><iframe allow="encrypted-media" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" gesture="media" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/RJaj39jI-qk" width="560"></iframe></p>

<p>2017 can easily be called Rajkummar Rao&#39;s year. Not only did the actor get critical appreciation, but also tasted commercial success. With as a many as 5 releases this year, Rao got to showcase his versatility in each of his films. Among those films, Vikramaditya Motwane&#39;s <em>Trapped</em> was perhaps the most different of the lot. It was a tricky film, to begin with- with just one character trapped in a confined space- but Rao performance and a fine screenplay written by Hardik Mehta made<em> Trapped </em>the most unconventional film of the year.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
<strong>Jagga Jasoos</strong></p>

<p><iframe allow="encrypted-media" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" gesture="media" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/xtm48kJwL1I" width="560"></iframe></p>

<p>Ranbir Kapoor&#39;s ambitious film had been in the making for a long time and people were sceptical that how relevant would it be when it finally releases. Yet director Anurag Basu made the film thoroughly entertaining. Made like a typical musical- which is a first for Bollywood- <em>Jagga Jasoos</em> was endearing for many reasons. The music, its camerawork, the way the story was narrated and of course Kapoor and Saswata Chatterjee&#39;s performances made the film thoroughly enjoyable. Basu&#39;s tribute of sorts to Satyajit Ray and Herge&#39;s Tintin was lauded by critics but the storytelling method was not taken well by the audience.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
<strong>Tu Hai Mera Sunday</strong></p>

<p><iframe allow="encrypted-media" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" gesture="media" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/b1Q_r-2Y5R4" width="560"></iframe></p>

<p>Milind Dhaimade&#39;s little film with a big heart was almost overlooked when it released in October. Primarily because the film released on the same day as Saif Ali Khan&#39;s <em>Chef </em>and also because it did not have a big star in it. But word of mouth publicity ensured that the film got more screenings in the coming days and eventually gave <em>Chef</em> a tough fight at the Box Office. Featuring TV heartthrob Barun Sobti, Shahana Goswami and a bunch of theatre and TV actors- <em>Tu Hai Mera Sunday</em> was a story of a motley group in Mumbai looking for space to play football on Sundays. The film, in its own subtle way, highlighted the grave space problem in an ever-growing city like Mumbai. With some endearing performances and breezy narrative- it was a film that a lot of people in the big cities could relate to.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
<strong>Mukti Bhawan</strong></p>

<p><iframe allow="encrypted-media" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" gesture="media" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/1A1Sp6-GcmI" width="560"></iframe></p>

<p>A film on death and afterlife should ideally be morbid, no? But director Shubhashish Bhutiani&#39;s film was uplifting and refreshing in more ways than one. A story of a busy son who takes his father to Varanasi as the old man desires to spend his last few days near the ghats, the film was a poignant take on life and the little things we tend to overlook in our daily lives. With superlative performance by Adil Hussain, the film not only dealt with death but also highlighted the importance of celebrating life.&nbsp;</p>

Meri Pyaari Bindu Ayushmann Khurrana had multiple releases this year- making him, along with Rajkummar Rao, the new poster boy of the middle-class. And while people loved him in Shubh Mangal Saavdhan and Bareilly Ki Barfi- his performance in Akshay Roy's Meri Pyaari Bindu almost went unnoticed. Which is unfortunate because of all the three films, Khurrana was absolutely brilliant as Bubla Roy, the wry, angsty novelist in this film. Paired opposite the vivacious Parineeti Chopra, the film took a fairly realistic approach towards modern romances and heartbreaks. With a beautiful soundtrack, Meri Pyaari Bindu was perhaps the most subtle love story of this year with endering performances by not just the lead pair but the entire supporting cast- who are mainly known faces of Bengali film industry. Death In The Gunj Konkona Sen Sharma's film was in English and a bit of Bengali, which is perhaps the reason that the film had less commercial viability. But the actress-filmmaker should be given credit for making a film that will remain relevant for decades to come. At the onset, it looked like a mystery thriller about a death in McCluskiegunj where a family gathers for a vacation- but the story ultimately was so much more than that. The film dealt with how a society perceives masculinity and how we always succumb to stereotypes. It had a superlative cast - each performing their character with absolute ease. More importantly, the film made a lot of people sit up and take notice of a fine actor called Vikrant Massey- who as the central character Shutu - gave one of the best performances this year. Trapped 2017 can easily be called Rajkummar Rao's year. Not only did the actor get critical appreciation, but also tasted commercial success. With as a many as 5 releases this year, Rao got to showcase his versatility in each of his films. Among those films, Vikramaditya Motwane's Trapped was perhaps the most different of the lot. It was a tricky film, to begin with- with just one character trapped in a confined space- but Rao performance and a fine screenplay written by Hardik Mehta made Trapped the most unconventional film of the year. Jagga Jasoos Ranbir Kapoor's ambitious film had been in the making for a long time and people were sceptical that how relevant would it be when it finally releases. Yet director Anurag Basu made the film thoroughly entertaining. Made like a typical musical- which is a first for Bollywood- Jagga Jasoos was endearing for many reasons. The music, its camerawork, the way the story was narrated and of course Kapoor and Saswata Chatterjee's performances made the film thoroughly enjoyable. Basu's tribute of sorts to Satyajit Ray and Herge's Tintin was lauded by critics but the storytelling method was not taken well by the audience. Tu Hai Mera Sunday Milind Dhaimade's little film with a big heart was almost overlooked when it released in October. Primarily because the film released on the same day as Saif Ali Khan's Chef and also because it did not have a big star in it. But word of mouth publicity ensured that the film got more screenings in the coming days and eventually gave Chef a tough fight at the Box Office. Featuring TV heartthrob Barun Sobti, Shahana Goswami and a bunch of theatre and TV actors- Tu Hai Mera Sunday was a story of a motley group in Mumbai looking for space to play football on Sundays. The film, in its own subtle way, highlighted the grave space problem in an ever-growing city like Mumbai. With some endearing performances and breezy narrative- it was a film that a lot of people in the big cities could relate to. Mukti Bhawan A film on death and afterlife should ideally be morbid, no? But director Shubhashish Bhutiani's film was uplifting and refreshing in more ways than one. A story of a busy son who takes his father to Varanasi as the old man desires to spend his last few days near the ghats, the film was a poignant take on life and the little things we tend to overlook in our daily lives. With superlative performance by Adil Hussain, the film not only dealt with death but also highlighted the importance of celebrating life.

<p>When Mahira Khan and Ranbir Kapoor&#39;s photopgraphs went viral in the last month, both the actors faced a lot of criticism but specifically Mahira drew a lot of flak. Most criticised her for her clothes and for smoking. Good friend Ranbir even issued a statement few days later and tried to defend Mahira but actress maintained a stoic silence over the matter.<br />
<br />
The Pakistani actress has now finally broken her silence and stated how she was &#39;shattered and broken&#39;when the controversy broke out. In an interview to a website, the actress said, &quot;I&rsquo;d be lying if I said that I decided right off the bat that I wouldn&rsquo;t respond to this controversy. And I&rsquo;m a very strong woman but when all of this happened, I was completely shattered and broken. I would think about posting a statement every day. Then I would stop myself because I just wouldn&rsquo;t know what to say.&quot;<br />
<br />
The actress said, she waited for her film <em>Power Di Game</em>&nbsp;to release and felt that she would speak about the issue during the film&#39;s promotions. &quot;Thankfully,<em> Power Di Game</em>&nbsp;was ready to be released, which I thought was perfect timing, so I just posted that as sort of a response to the trolls. But to be honest, I understand where all the criticism came from and it didn&rsquo;t come from a place of hate. I&rsquo;m not talking about the trolls but those who were genuinely disappointed to see those pictures. It&rsquo;s the same disappointment that my nani or my mamoo would have felt seeing that. So even now when I meet an older lady who says that she didn&rsquo;t like the pictures, I&rsquo;m quick to apologize.&rdquo;</p>

I am human, I make mistakes. And I was really happy to see that there were so many people who stood up for me. It goes to show that the narrative in Pakistan is changing, and if nothing else, I&rsquo;m happy to have been part of that narrative.&rdquo;<br />
