The latest updates from Bollywood.
After Tamasha, Deepika Padukone seems to have moved on to her next venture. The actress may soon wear a producer's hat as she wishes to venture into film production.
Explaining that she wants to produce films because she likes organising things, the 29-year-old actress said, "I want to venture into production and be a producer or a line producer some day because I feel I have that kind of personality. I like to organise, put things together and make things happen. I don't want to be a producer because I want to make money."
Deepika added that she wants to produce films to entertain audiences, but does not want to get involved in any kind of business.
Other actresses like Anushka Sharma and Lara Dutta have already tried their hand at production.
