From seen style dropping in the song sequences to rocking her Squadron Leader look from the Air Dragons unit, Deepika is a delight to watch. In one of the shots, she along with Siddharth Anand, does a goofy bhangra step. She is seen having a gala time with her ‘Fighter’ squad, and it is a proof of her off-screen camaraderie.
Meanwhile, the film’s director, Siddharth Anand, had recently spoken about Deepika’s character, and mentioned Minni is the kind of role Deepika has not played earlier. Talking to India Today, he had said, “Deepika is playing an Air Force officer in Fighter. She’s part of the unit, the elite unit of the Air Force, and it’s based on a lot of reality and authenticity. So it’s something that Deepika has not played before. She has literally bitten into it and, honestly, it’s a lot like her in real life.”
He had added that working with Deepika is a delight on sets. He said, “Deepika is so much fun on set. And, she’s translating that character as a real good ‘takkar’ (competition) to Hrithik’s character. So it’s very exciting.”
The film is scheduled to release on January 25.
