Deepika Padukone, who is currently on a hiatus from Bollywood, called out a newspaper for referring to her sister Anisha Padukone as ‘The Other Padukone’. Anisha Padukone is Deepika’s little sister, and both of them are daughters to Prakash Padukone (ace badminton player) and Ujjala Padukone.

In an Instagram post, Deepika shared a photo with a newspaper clipping of a report and corrected its headline by writing, “not the ‘other’ Padukone…’The’ Padukone! I’m soo proud of you my little baby girl… @anishapadukone.”

Surely, seeing such love between the two siblings is heartwarming. They had appeared together on Neha Dhupia’s ‘BFFs with Vogue’ and had a blast. Anisha also supports Deepika with ‘The Live Love Laugh Foundation’ which aims to raise awareness about mental health, help reduce the stigma associated with it and help people get access to professional help.

In an interview with Bangalore Mirror, Anisha said, “I was playing golf full-time around that time and I thought I would go to the TLLLF office once or twice a week to help in their work as an intern, you know. Then it so happened that the director of the board was on his way out and we could not find a replacement. So, the trustees suggested that I take over. I wasn’t keen on this initially because I didn’t have experience (in running an organisation) but they promised to hold my hands through the learning process.

We hope that the two sisters continue to inspire us like they always have!
