Deepika Padukone's Piku Has Bollywood's Love and Approval

Bollywood celebrities including MadhurBhandarkar, Sidharth Malhotra and Shraddha Kapoor have given the forthcoming film Piku a thumbs up and hailed the performances of the main cast Amitabh Bachchan, Deepika Padukone and Irffan Khan.

The slice of life film, directed by Shoojit Sircar, is about a young girl Piku (Deepika) and her relationship with her ageing father (Mr Bachchan) and Irrfan is the mediator of sorts between the two.

Actress Shraddha Kapoor tweeted:
