Padukone has established a career in Hindi films, and is the recipient of several awards, including three Filmfare Awards.

She rose to prominence with starring roles in the comedies Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani (2013), Chennai Express (2013), and Happy New Year (2014), and the historical romance Bajirao Mastani (2015), all of which rank among the highest-grossing Bollywood films. Padukone's acclaimed portrayal of a character based on Juliet in the tragic romance Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela (2013) and a headstrong architect in the comedy-drama Piku (2015) won her two Best Actress awards at Filmfare. Alongside her acting career, Padukone participates in stage shows, has written columns for an Indian newspaper, is a prominent celebrity endorser for brands and products, and is vocal about issues such as feminism and depression.

Suggested by s105042
In the lush heart of the jungle, Mowgli, now a spirited eighteen-year-old, has found a slice of paradise with his adoptive family. The harmony is shattered when hunter rangers, led by the ruthless Samuel Alexander, invade their sanctuary. These hunters, under the guise of animal protection, are abducting creatures to populate shelters in far-off South America. Eve, Samuel’s daughter and a bright-eyed girl with a passion for the wild, discovers her father's true intentions. Her curiosity leads her to a shocking revelation: her father and his men are the captors, not the saviors, of the jungle’s inhabitants. Amidst this turmoil, Eve’s path crosses with Mowgli’s, the fabled man-cub, stirring a sense of urgency within her. Bagheera, the wise panther, recognizes the danger lurking in Samuel’s eyes – a reflection of the Gatekeeper who once ensnared him as a cub. He confides in Mowgli, revealing the peril that threatens their freedom. With the fate of the jungle in his hands, Mowgli must lead his family and friends to a new land, a haven where they can thrive without fear. As they embark on this journey for freedom, alliances form, courage is tested, and the very essence of liberty and coexistence hangs in the balance. Mowgli and Eve, along with their allies, must outwit Samuel and his hunters to secure a future where the jungle's inhabitants can live in peace.
