Deepika Padukone, the glamourous girl who won everyone’s hearts with her debut in Om Shanti Om, is extremely thrilled. The actress has been not just nominated in the ‘Best Debut (Female) category, but also in the Best Actor In A Leading Role (Female)’ category for the 53rd Fairone Filmfare Awards. Since it is not often that a debutant receives such a grand welcome from the industry, Deepika is glad that she has got it. And to top it all, the actress will also be putting together an on-stage performance at the Filmfare Awards function. Sharing her mood with movies.indiatimes, Deepika said, “I am very happy that my first on-stage performance is going to be for the Filmfare Awards. It is one function that I have grown up watching as a kid and I never thought that I would reach so far one day. Filmfare is a great platform and I am thankful to Farah Khan for giving me my debut role.” And while Deepika is excited about her first Filmfare night, we asked her how she rates her performance in OSO and who she thinks are her competitors in the ‘lead’ category. This is what Ms. Padukone had to say, “I am glad that I have been nominated in two categories and the credit goes to Farah and the entire OSO team. As far as my performance is concerned, I don’t know. It is for others to tell me. Talking about competition, I found Aishwarya just superb in Guru and I think she very well deserved the award. Also, Kareena was fabulous in Jab We Met.” Yes, we agree with Ms. Padukone. She does face strong competition from the cat-eyed beauties, Ash and Bebo.
