We all remember the time when Deepika Padukone was being written off by her critics. The actress was being criticised for not having much potential to remain in the industry. But soon after, she took everyone by surprise when she came with a slew of successful and applause-worthy performances in 2013.

The actress never spoke about that phase much, but now she has grown as a person and finally shared her struggle. She said,

I’m really fortunate to be in the movie business – something that I always wanted to do and something that I’m very passionate about, which is why even when I was written off, I took that as a challenge and healthy criticism and worked on that. It’s important that I’ve enjoyed the people I’ve worked with, and I’ve enjoyed all the various film experiences I’ve had. Hard work is the key to a lot of things, but also it’s important to be passionate or rather do what you’re passionate about. And most importantly, enjoy yourself along the way – this has been the biggest learning. I’ve had fun through all the work that I’ve done and all the amazing people I’ve worked with, I’ve really had a good time.
