Fans are super excited to witness Shahrukh Khan back on big screen with his film 'Pathan'. Actress Deepika Padukone will be sharing screen with him and their pairing is one of the selling points of the film. Since the film is an action packed espionage thriller, both Shahrukh and Deepika will have to perform action sequences. To accurately play her part, Deepika has been working hard and undergoing training.

A source close to the project said, "Despite juggling multiple film shoots, Deepika doesn’t miss training for Pathan. The workout includes a mix of functional training and Yoga. She dedicates 1.5 hours of her day towards workout for 6 days a week, keeping one day break for rejuvenation. Deepika is also following a strict diet regime, as advised to her."

Deepika tested Covid-19 positive back in May and its been hard for her to get back on sets. The source stated, "Getting back on sets after a severe bout of Covid-19, took a lot of emotional and physical strength for Deepika. She is still pushing to get her fitness and health completely back, and is fully committed to it."
