Deepika Padukone’s rise to the top is due to her roles in several big-budget movies last year, including ‘Pathaan’ and her cameo in ‘Jawan’. This year, she will star in the major project ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ alongside Prabhas and Amitabh Bachchan followed by ‘Singham Again’. These high-profile films have significantly boosted her earnings.
Surveys also show that Deepika and Ranveer Singh’s wedding is considered one of Bollywood’s most memorable, rivaling other famous couples like Virat Kohli-Anushka Sharma, Nick Jonas-Priyanka Chopra, and Vicky Kaushal-Katrina Kaif.
