Sorry to let you down: Deepika Padukone to fans

Deepika Padukone is not only a brilliant actress but also her sweet gesture towards her fans is what makes her the star she is today.

Despite a brilliant performance in Padmavaat, the actress lost the best actress award to her friend Alia Bhatt who won big for Raazi.

“Padmaavat”, which had the highest number of nominations with 17 nods, won 4 trophies in categories like Playback Singing, Best Album and Choreography. After Deepika’s zero scores at the Filmfare Awards and “Padmaavat” losing in the major categories, some fans of the actress appeared visibly upset and dismissed Bollywood’s biggest night as “paid awards.”

Though she didn’t have a great night, Deepika Padukone made sure to acknowledge the fans. On an Instagram fan-page named ‘deepika.padukone.fanpage’, the actress posted an apology of sorts for “letting her fans down” and promised to return with a stronger body of work: “To all my fans, I am sorry to let you down and promise to work harder than ever before. Upwards and onwards,” her comment was spotted.

Now, after the release of the first look of Chhapaak, the fans are pretty sure that she would win the awards the next year.
