On the work front, Deepika is shooting for Meghna Gulzar's Chhapaak, where she stars alongside Vikrant Massey. Chhapaak will also see Deepika turn producer for the first time. No wonder, Deepika has been making some wise decisions over the years. On the other hand, Alia not only shot for Kalank but also completed Raazi, Gully Boy, Brahmastra among others in the last one year. In Brahmastra, Alia will be seen alongside Ranbir Kapoor.
