Deepika Padukone was set to make her debut with a Priyadarshan movie but ended up starring in Farah Khan’s Om Shanti Om.

Now, three years later she is set to do a cameo in Priyadarshan’s much hyped film, Billo Barber. And the credit goes to none other than Shah Rukh Khan.

“Yes, she was being considered for a film called Pirates – about music piracy. But the film didn’t work out. I’m glad Deepika made her debut with a film as successful as OSO, and that too with Shah Rukh,” said Priyadarshan, He added that Shah Rukh Khan was responsible for casting her in a cameo.

Billo Barber stars Shah Rukh Khan and Irfan Khan in lead roles. Shah Rukh Khan acts in a near real life role as a superstar. Besides Deepika Padukone, Kareena Kapoor also makes a cameo in the movie.
