Deepika Padukone has been receiving accolades for her recent outing Piku.
The film has been received very well in India as well as internationally. It is also being called one of Deepika's best performances. It has done extremely well at the box office and continues to soar.
Piku is a very special film for Deepika that is close to her heart and she wants to go all out to support the film. So she is pulling all stops and going all out to promote the film.
The word of mouth publicity on the film is very positive and the marketing team of the film has requested Deepika for some additional time for the post release promotions of the film.
All this while Deepika has been juggling between promotions of Piku and shooting for Bajirao Mastani. She has been shooting for Bajirao Mastani in the night and promoting Piku during the day. Even though it was a very hectic schedule Deepika continued to juggle between the two for the last couple of weeks.
However, the marketing team has made some additions for the promotion of the film. They are keen to amp up the communication of the film this week.
Deepika is the protagonist of the film and so they have chalked out a special campaign for her which would need more of her time.
Keeping this in mind, Deepika made a special request to Sanjay Leela Bhansali to give her two days off from the shoot to take part in the promotions. The two share an excellent rapport and Sanjay Leela Bhansali instantly agreed.
Spokesperson of Deepika confirms and shares, "Deepika has taken a two day break from shooting to promote Piku. She made a special request to Sanjay sir and he graciously got her dates re-aligned so that she can promote the film."

Mad Max: Fury Road review by ANIZ FILMVALA
Mad Max: Fury Road review
by ANIZ FILMVALA
*****
Director: George MillerCast: Tom Hardy,Charlize Theron,Nicholas Hoult,Hugh Keays-Byrne.
Since 1979 when the first part of the Mad Max hit the theaters it changed the way of Action can entertain and enthrall with a velocity of fast pace visual which the world had never imagined about how cinematic view of car chase and repulsive characters would create a space in the History of Awesome Action movies.
Director George Miller after a gap of three decades is back with the Awesomeness of the edge of the seat thrills and nonstop ride to invigorate the way Action film should be made.
Incredibly created characters and beyond the belief production design will mesmerize you,120 minutes of nonstop car chase on a wild Desert between the good and bad contention is one big theme to draw attention universally, and a kind of an bungee string lively guitarist jamming on an moving truck is attitude unmatched. You witness a madcap world where even prayers to god are ridiculed.
Charlize Theron as Imperator Furiosa who is on a mission to save the wives of her commander Immortan Joe(Hugh Keays-Byrne) gives a thundering performance and dwarfs the Bad Boy “Mad Max” (Tom Hardy) out of his size and Heroic image since thirty Years. Mr. Miller seems to be more inclined towards the feminist force of the future “Mad Max” series to come.
Come witness the most overwhelming live-action you must have not experienced in ages, the makers have effortlessly created and staged the stunts so well that it creates a authentic ambiance of a much awaited “Mad Max” film it should be.
