Deepika receives flak over ’83 tweet
Bollywood actor Deepika Padukone faced a backlash over her tweet on the role of Romi Dev in the forthcoming film ’83.
The actor posted her look as Romi on February 19. It was the tweet that accompanied the post that didn't go down well with social media users.
“To be able to play a small part in a film that captures one of the most iconic moments in sporting history has been an absolute honour. I’ve seen very closely the role a wife plays in the success of her husband's professional and personal aspirations in my mother and 83 for me in many ways is an ode to every woman who puts her husband's dream before her own,” she captioned the image.
‘Some stories really encompass life. The story of two youngsters falling in love in Chhaju Ke Dahi Bhalle, the dark reality of a married couple in Sleeping Partner or Pinni or Thappad really show some real moments of life. While Thappad is a story of children, Pinni is the story of an elderly lady. That is the power of a short story.’

A social media user wrote: “My cousin was giving a presentation in his class when the HOD/lecturer told him ‘if u cannot speak properly you shouldn’t study.’ He hasn't come out of his room since this incident.”
Hrithik took to Twitter and wrote: “Please tell your cousin that that professor and his judgement both are irrelevant.”
