On the other hand, Deepika Padukone has been awaiting a personal milestone as she is due to give birth to her first baby with Ranveer Singh in September. As she becomes the highest-paid Bollywood actress, how much remuneration she gets in the future will also be dictated by how well her impending release of Kalki 2898 AD does.
