Deepika Padukone is riding high on success and her latest project is going to blow your mind away! Deepika made her Hollywood film debut with XXX: The Return of Xander Cage, which also featured Vin Diesel. She is now all set to work on a new international project, and this time it’s going to be a cross-cultural film. Just today Adam Fogelson, the chairman of STXfilms, which is a division of Eros STX Global Corporation, announced that the company is developing a romantic comedy for global Indian icon Deepika Padukone.
The studio is currently in negotiations with Temple Hill to develop the project, which is going to be a cross-cultural romantic comedy centred around Deepika. As per reports, Deepika will not just be acting in it but also be producing it through her Ka Productions banner.
Deepika shared her excitement about her second International project, and said-
Ka Productions was founded with the aim to develop and produce purposeful content with global appeal. I’m thrilled to be partnering with STXfilms and Temple Hill Productions, who share Ka’s ambition and creative vision and look forward to bringing impactful and dynamic cross-cultural stories to the world.
Commenting on the announcement, chairman Fogelson says-
There is a reason Deepika is one of the biggest global stars to come from India. She is enormously talented with an infectious personality and her profile continues to grow as an international superstar. While she has been a phenomenal success in many Eros International films, we are thrilled to be building a romantic comedy with her and our friends at Temple Hill. We believe this project gives us the opportunity to tap into the spirit, voice, characters and vibrant settings of India and New York in ways that made Crazy Rich Asians feel so authentic and fresh.
Apart from this, Deepika will next be seen in Shakun Batra’s and Siddharth Anand’s untitled films. 2021 sure does look like a year filled with opportunities for Deepika, right?
