Mother-to-be Deepika Padukone was last seen on the big screen in the magnum opus `Kalki 2898 AD`. The pan-India sci-fi film boasted of a cast including Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan, and Prabhas among others, and was directed by Nag Ashwin. Turns out, Padukone will not be resuming work anytime soon and is focused on her motherhood. For the same, she has turned down the American web series `The White Lotus 3`.
Deepika Padukone and her actor husband Ranveer Singh are expecting their first child together. The couple will be welcoming their little one in September this year. According to a report in The Times Now, a source told them, "Deepika loves children. She bonds with them instinctively. You can be sure there will be no nannys or nanas to look after her child when it is born…I don’t think Deepika would ever let Ranveer share in parental chores. She will be a 100% hands-on mother,” a source cited by the news portal claimed.
