Quick Read

In the Maddock universe

Deepika Padukone’s hush-hush visit to Maddock Films has finally stopped being hush-hush. Industry chatter suggests the actor has been approached for not one but two big-ticket projects the studio is lining up. The loudest buzz surrounds Maddock’s expanding StreeVerse, where Deepika has reportedly been offered the role of a mysterious Bengali ghost named Shaakhchuni — insiders describe her as powerful, eerie, and central to the franchise’s next chapter. Alongside that, Maddock is said to be piecing together a large-scale fantasy epic, with Deepika as their top pick to lead it. Details are being guarded as tightly as a plot twist, but word is the film is being envisioned as a visual spectacle. Deepika has shown interest in both ideas but has kept things strictly professional, asking the team for full scripts before she signs anything. For now, Maddock remains tight-lipped, but her discreet visit has sent the rumour mill spinning. If things align, Deepika could be stepping into one of her most adventurous phases yet — from a chilling supernatural figure to a new fantasy universe built around her.
