After making a comeback with a powerful performance in Chhapaak earlier this year, Padukone will also be seen opposite Singh in Kabir Khan's '83. Apart from these, she has made three big announcements: DP will next be seen in Shaun Batra's domestic noir film under Karan Johar's Dharma Productions. There’s also the Intern remake that she is producing and the big Nag Ashwin project with Prabhas that got announced earlier this week.

But that's not all. DP is all set to make another big announcement next month, apparently. A source told Pinkvilla, "Deepika has locked her dates for a big YRF film. She will mostly be romancing Shah Rukh Khan in Siddharth Anand's big actioner. The production house has been in talks with the actress for the film but she is yet to sign on the dotted line.”

They added, “Also, because of the covid-19 scare around the country, they are yet to lock in dates for the schedules of the film. Once that is done, Deepika will work around her date schedule for the film. Right now, she has just been approached for the film and liked the script as well. It's a powerful role for the female lead."

The upcoming film will mark Padukone’s reunion with Shah Rukh Khan after Happy New Year, which released in 2014. It will reportedly be announced in a grand ceremony on Yash Chopra's birthday celebrations.

"Pre-Covid, the team had planned a huge event to announce all the big films with all the big actors who are starring in it, to commemorate YRF's 50th birthday celebrations. Deepika and SRK's film with the WAR director will also be announced as part of the YRF 50 announcement list, next month on Yash jee's birthday."
