Deepika Padukone trying Priya Prakash Varrier's viral wink leaves her overwhelmed

Deepika Padukone has been actively promoting her upcoming film 'Chhapaak'. The movie, inspired by the struggles of acid attack survivour Laxmi Aggarwal, has Deepika playing the protagonist. In the course of the movie's promotional spree, Deepika has been making appearances on TV shows and sharing a lot of posts on Instagram.

In her latest post, Deepika shared a 'DPism' video that’s apparently from the first day of the film's shoot. The video starts with Deepika in conversation with director Meghna Gulzar and does a Priya Prakash Varrier as she looks into the camera -- she winks in the same manner as she did in the latter's viral clip.

The video end with a message saying, "Get that Priya Varrier."

Sharing the video Deepika wrote, “Episode 3 of #dpisms !!! @priya.p.varrier #chhapaak #10thjanuary."

The video became a fan moment for Priya who couldn’t control her excitement as Deepika winked her way to glory.

"Did the goddess herself wink???!!! No better way to end 2019. Fallen," she wrote.

Priya had earlier also, in an interview, expressed her admiration for Deepika.

Talking of Chhapaak, the movie, Deepika says, has been an emotional journey for her.

"I'd say it's the toughest movie I have ever done. Not because of the role, but because of the prosthetics. I am an extremely patient person, but I had to dig deep to go through that every single day for 42 days," she said, in an interview.

Chhapaak also stars Vikrant Massey and is set to hit the theatres on January 10, 2020.
