Deepika Padukone is one of the busiest actresses on the circuit currently

You could say that Deepika Padukone is one of the busiest actresses on the circuit currently.

While her next film -Aarakshan, with Saif Ali Khan- is releasing this week, she's got an interesting repertoire of upcoming films that's the envy of most B-Town actresses. There's the rom-com Desi Boyz, the action thriller Race 2, a new age love story Cocktails, Rajnikanth's Rana and an untitled big banner production that will be announced soon. She's way ahead of most of her contemporaries and industry opinion states that she is one of the next superstars of this generation. BT finds out what's been keeping her on her toes lately.

After Love Aaj Kal you are back again with Saif Ali Khan in Aarakshan and then Cocktails. Buzz is that there is a bond developing between you two.
Love Aaj Kal is a very special film for me. Post that, Saif and I are coming together in a couple of more films. I am glad filmmakers have offered us roles together. There is certainly a comfort level with Saif as we have worked together. There is always a certain comfort level when you have already worked with an actor and I'm glad that post the success of Love Aaj Kal, people want to see us in more films together.
