Deepika Padukone makes the right choices

The strategic choices of projects and riveting portrayals by Deepika have really paid off in the recent past. Her last four movies, Kalki 2898 AD, Fighter, Jawan & Pathaan have all worked their magic at the box office. Pathaan released in early 2023 and turned out to be a massive hit and earned over 1050 crores worldwide. The film starred Shah Rukh Khan in the lead and was praised for its high-voltage action with a gripping storyline​.

Then came Jawan that cashed in on the box office momentum and collected over 1100 crores worldwide. Also featuring superstar Shah Rukh Khan, the film connected very well with audiences and critics at large and turned out to be one of the biggest hits of the year​. It was followed by Fighter, where DP was costarring with Hrithik Roshan. This action film netted over 337 crores worldwide and was a successful outing.

The last film on the list is Kalki 2898 AD. The film is still running in theatres and has grossed over 1100 crores. Add those four numbers and you will end up with a staggering Rs 3587 crores. Now, if that is the kind of number an actor has grossed over a mere four films, you know very well that we are not talking about any normal actor. We are talking about Deepika Padukone!
