Deepika Padukone a lead actress of 'Padmavati' which has been in the making for a while. During the shoot and production time of the film, tensions were running high because of caste-based groups protesting against the film. 

After the movie release date was postponed to January, the film's director Sanjay Leela Bhansali, and its leads Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone, and Shahid Kapoor have all been sitting and biding their time. Naturally, they are all quite sad about the trouble their film has landed in.

To deal with all the difficulties surrounding the film, it seems, the Padmavati actress Deepika has decided to spend quality time with her old, close friends. According to a recent Instagram post of her account, Deepika seems to have turned to her non-filmy "besties" for a break from all the movie drama.

Deepika is still now enough to be in touch with her old buddies. Further, it is nice to know that she has loved ones to count on in this difficult time that she is going through. Living with an army of policemen because somebody is frightened him to cut off your body parts surely cannot be easy! It's always nice to have your best girlfriends to unwind with, then, even if you are as self-sufficient and strong as Deepika.
