Deepika-Padukone-and-Sanjay-Leela-Bhansali

Deepika Padukone recently created a lot of stir with her hot photoshoot for MAXIM magazine. Even though she received backlash for donning a two-piece bodysuit, the actress’ fans were in complete awe of her. But, there’s somebody close to the actress who ‘apparently’ is not happy with this photoshoot. As per reports, it is ‘Padmavati’ director Sanjay Leela Bhansali who is miffed with Dippy for posing like this ahead of their film’s release.

A report in Deccan Chronicle has a source saying, “Deepika is essaying the role of a historical character, a Rani (queen) in ‘Padmavati’ and to pose for steamy photoshoots right before the release of the film, is unacceptable to him (Sanjay Leela Bhansali). He feels the pictures could rub people the wrong way. After what has happened in the past, he just cannot afford to risk it all for a third time.”

We don’t know how much of this is true but looks like this photoshoot has called for a good amount of trouble for Deepika. (Also Check: Deepika Padukone gets culture-slammed for her two-piece bikini picture!)
