Deepika Padukone re-enters in ‘Race 2’

The Indian actress and a former model, Deepika Padukone, locked many headlines a few days back when she gave a royal snub to Abbas-Mustan and Ramesh S. Taurani by opting out of their forthcoming movie ‘Race 2’. However, the controversy of Padukone and Taurani has come to an end now because the actress is back in the film.

Rumours revolving around suggested that the reason behind Deepika’s royal snub was basically Tamil superstar, Rajinikanth since Deepika, who left ‘Race 2’ after six days of shooting, has signed Rajinikanth’s upcoming film ‘Kochadaiyaan’.

Deepika’s departure from ‘Race 2’ left the producer Taurani pretty upset, as he called Deepika ‘unprofessional and ‘unethical’. Moreover, he even filed a complaint against her with the Cine and TV Artistes’ Association (CINTAA), which apparently looks the reason for Deepika’s comeback.

Though the general secretary of CINTAA, Dharmesh Tiwari, revealed Deepika has not officially made a comeback in the movie, he said he is expecting the fight to end in the next 48 hours.

Tiwari said, “There is no final settlement yet. Deepika has spoken to me. I met her on Wednesday. But yes, we expect this fight to end in the next 48 hours.”

As per the reports, Deepika had a meeting of half an hour with Taurani on Wednesday in which she discussed her set of terms and conditions to work for the film. Deepika has requested Taurani to provide her with the dates, as she also has other projects in hand. On top of it, Deepika wants the director to communicate with her directly without any middlemen. She also wants to have the rights to decide the film’s release date and she wants to have her own make up man and designer for the shoot.

To confirm the news, one of Deepika’s close friends was asked as well about whether if Deepika has really given a list of conditions to Taurani or not.

“Deepika has five points of concern. If the producers of Race 2 are interested in having her back on board, they will have to look into the conditions. Now the ball is in their court,” said a friend of the actress.
