Celebrity Sighting

A chance visit to MG Road on Friday evening turned eventful when I saw a tall girl standing near a corn stall. She looked familiar. I thought about it for few seconds and then I realized that it was Deepika Padukone, the upcoming model and actress and daughter of famous Badminton champion, Prakash Padukone. She was with another girl and on old lady. But I wasn’t sure if it really was her. I then walked till Cauvery Emporium and was waiting for my friends to catch up. But Deepika caught up before they could and she stood right next to me near the entrance of Cauvery when the old lady shouted “Deepika” and she looked back so I was sure of who it was. She looked beautiful, I must say.

    @sej: Yeah, she looks great even in person which cant be said about all models.

    I would never ask a celebrity for an autograph. I’m too cool to do something like that.

    @freeze/akanksha: For someone who’s never been to Mumbai, I have seen quite a few celebs.

    Preeti Sagar and PT Usha were chief guests of some school function.

    I saw Akshay Kumar and Gulshan Kumar when I went to Vaishno Devi years ago.

    Kunal Ganjawala and his wife Gayatri Iyer were on one of my flights.

    I saw VJ Anusha at Delhi airport the same day :)

    @sneha: Well, I have no way of knowing if you really are friends with Deepika but I don’t mind if she knows about my post :)

    Also, why should it bother me that she’s seeing someone else? I’m fine with it :D
