Deepika Padukone was in for a pleasant surprise recently. She had Amitabh Bachchan knock at her door and announce, ‘Are you wearing your clothes? I am coming in’. It so happened that Deepika and Big B were shooting at the same premise on Thursday — Dips was shooting for Race 2 and Big B for an ad. Deepika was not only over the moon. She said Amitji told me ‘I got fully taiyaar to have dinner with you but you were not there’ so I told him ‘Sir this weekend, you and I will have dinner alone.” Bachchan holds a very special place in her life. “Once you play father and daughter in a film (as they did in Aarakshan), you always share a bond for life. I remember the first guests at my new flat were Jayaji and Amitji. Jayaji spoke to me about my film and told me that I reminded her of her daughter,” recounted Deepika.
