  • IndiaGlitz, [Friday,May 15 2015]

'Piku' is a very special film for Deepika Padukone that is close to her heart and she wants to go all out to support the film. So she is pulling all stops and going all out to promote the film. The word of mouth publicity on the film is very positive and the marketing team of the film has requested Deepika for some additional time for the post release promotions of the film.

All this while Deepika has been juggling between promotions of 'Piku' and shooting for 'Bajirao Mastani'. She has been shooting for 'Bajirao Mastani' in the night and promoting 'Piku' during the day. Even though it was a very hectic schedule Deepika continued to juggle between the two for the last couple of weeks.

However, the marketing team has made some additions for the promotion of the film. They are keen to amp up the communication of the film this week. As Deepika is the protagonist of the film, they have chalked out a special campaign for her which would need more of her time.

Keeping this in mind, Deepika made a special request to Sanjay Leela Bhansali to give her two days off from the shoot to take part in the promotions. The two share an excellent rapport and Sanjay Leela Bhansali instantly agreed.

Confirming this, a spokesperson of Deepika shared, "Deepika has taken a two day break from shooting to promote Piku. She made a special request to Sanjay sir and he graciously got her dates re-aligned so that she can promote the film."

Deepika Padukone has been receiving accolades for her recent outing 'Piku'. The film, also starring Amitabh Bachchan and Irrfan Khan in lead, has been received very well in India as well as internationally. It is also being called one of Deepika's best performances. It has done extremely well at the box office and continues to soar.
