Deepika Padukone Has A Connection With Kangana Ranaut’s Manikarnika

Deepika Padukone has got something to do with Kangana Ranaut’s upcoming movie. But, hold your horses...it’s not what you’re thinking! Not Deepika but one of her ex-boyfriends is all set to make a debut with Manikarnika, the film based on The Queen of Jhansi.

Reports suggest that Deepika’s ex, Nihaar Pandya, who she was dating during her struggling days, is a part of Kangana’s film. According to mid-day, Nihaar will play Bajirao II in Zee Studios' Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi. For those who don’t know, Nihaar played a cameo in Salman Khan’s Marigold in 2007. However, that wasn’t a full-fledged role. It now looks like, the gates of Bollywood have finally been opened for him.

Talking about Nihaar and Deepika’s history, the duo apparently was living-in when Dippy shifted from Bengaluru to Mumbai during her initial days in Bollywood. She bagged Om Shaanti Om opposite Shah Rukh and Nihaar was left behind.
