Bollywood star Deepika Padukone has said in an interview to DNA that she is still a sucker for romance.
In the age of Twitter and Facebook, Deepika has not gotten over the romance of writing and passing on small notes in a classroom.
“I am sure every girl has gone through that phase. There's this teacher you have a massive crush on, and you pass on a small note to your best friend about how good he's looking today. It's a kind of a romance that I still love,” says Deepika.
The actor says that she would still like to be wooed by love letters than text messages. “There is a kind of a romance in written words. When you receive a letter, say in a pink envelope, the sight of it evokesthat mushy feeling that cannot be felt by anything else. Iam still a sucker for good ol' romance,” she adds.
After a whirlwind tour of promotions, Deepika has finally decided to go holidaying. “I still don't know where I am going, but this is for sure that the holiday has been pending for a long time now. I'll be out of the country for a fortnightbefore I start working on Break Ke Baad (with Imran Khan),” she says.
Deepika says that during holidays and weekends she completely switches off from work. “It's not easy to take your mind off work completely.But when I am surrounded by friends and family, it helps me switch off,” she says.
The actor says that even if she‘s on a holiday, she doesn't take a break from her ‘open air' exercise regimen. “My early morning open air jogshave become a part of my life. Slogging it out in a controlled atmosphere (air-conditioned gym) is the norm now, but nothing is more effective than a jog early in the morning,” she ends.
