Last month, many in Bollywood were surprised to know that Deepika Padukone turned down an offer of Rs. 4 crore, to perform in a private party in London. It sure is a huge money to perform a 4 minutes dance at the rate of 1 crore per minute! I wanted to know the hidden reason behind the turndown of the lucrative offer by Deepika.
