Deepika Padukone in ‘Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey’

Looking at Deepika Padukone in this still from the upcoming film ‘Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey’ reminded us of Shabana Azmi.

The comparison may or may not be far fetched but it does make a point. This is not the Deepika that we are used to seeing on the big or small screen.

Ashutosh Gowariker says it is one of his favorite images from the movie. It showcases the grit and determination of the women of 1930s.

The film is based on the book Do And Die by Manini Chatterji. It is the story of Bengal revolutionary Surya Sen who master-minded the Chittagong armory raid.

Deepika portrays the character of Kalpana Datta… These were times when women were not allowed to participate in freedom movements. But she braved all odds and took the gun in her hands to fight for the country.

The film additionally headlines Abhishek Bachchan.

Deepika is excited about her role in the film.

“I fight with men and I manufacture bombs. All this in the 1930s. It can’t get any more exciting,” she says.

The film has been shot mostly in Goa along with portions in Mumbai.

Costumes have been designed by Neeta Lulla.
