Deepika Padukone is going to be a mother soon and she has also played the role of a pregnant woman in the film 'Kalki 2898 A.D.' which is currently hitting the theatres. The character in the film is named 'SU-M80' and is called Sumati. Her co-star Shashvat Chatterjee, who plays Commander Manas, a close aide of the Supreme, revealed that Deepika was also pregnant in real life while shooting the challenging climax scene.

In an interview to News 18, Shashwat told that in the climax scene of 'Kalki 2898 A.D.', Commander Manas fights with Amitabh's character 'Ashwatthama' and he is seen dragging 'SU-M80' i.e. Deepika by her hair. Shashwat told that Deepika was pregnant while filming this scene and when she was shooting this scene, her husband Ranveer Singh was also present on the set.

Deepika's pregnancy, shooting of the last part

In this interview, he said, 'Deepika always keeps smiling. There is a scene in the film in which I drag her by the hair. This was part of the last sequence of the shooting and it was shot in Mumbai because Deepika was pregnant by then. There was a lot of physical pulling in the scene, so I told Ranveer- don't worry, there is a body double for the more physically challenging scenes. He is very humble and he said smilingly- I know Dada.'

Opinion: Don't be fooled by the rumours of 'Kalki 2898 A.D.' and use your brain, else you too will become an April Fool in July!
