Did Deepika Padukone defend Katrina Kaif?

Mumbai: Though we can’t say that catfights are a thing of the long past in Bollywood, the atmosphere in Tinsel Town is far more friendly, that it once used to be. Deepika Padukone is indeed ruling at the moment and following her is none other than Katrina Kaif, if we were to look at the Box Office record.

Latest reports suggest that when Deepika met the press recently for an interaction, a reporter asked her about how she deals with performance-oriented roles and “showpiece” (read: glamorous) roles. Deepika apparently did not quite get the question right and asked the reporter to specify what he meant by “showpiece” roles. The reporter then mentioned Katrina’s role in ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan’.

Deepika, who is often known for being quite outspoken and vocal about what she feels, displayed her witty side by telling the reporter that according to Katrina, the ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan’ role demanded tremendous hard work and hence how could it be a “showpiece role”!

However, DP was quick to add that being an actress is not an easy job and that she wouldn’t be in a position to comment on other people’s work.
Well, though we are not quite sure, if that was a jibe or an answer to defend Katrina, but it is indeed good to see actresses declining space for animosity on public forums.
