On her 30th birthday, here are 5 reasons why Deepika Padukone ruled our hearts in 2015!

Piku happened. Even if it did not do great the box office, her acting donning the character of a Bengali daughter in the movie was a must-watch, her sizzling performance as Taara was to die for, and well need we say anything about beauty and grace as Mastani? Just Perfect!

While Filmfare honoured her with ‘The Most Glamorous Movie Star’, she was awarded IIFA ‘Woman of the Year Award’ by none other than Ranveer Singh!! She won our hearts as she stood there taking all the praise donning an elegant, charming smile!

In January 2015, Femina chose Deepika Padukone as one of 'India's Most Beautiful Women'. The same month, she actually launched her own foundation 'Live love laugh', after she had a personal stint with depression and felt others like her would need help to battle it.

After Malaika, Bipasha and Suzanne, Deepika was next in line to become a woman entrepreneur as she launched her own fashion line ‘All about you’. It sure emanates her dynamism, style and persona.
