New Delhi:
Cinephile Deepika Padukone is back with her film recommendations and let’s just say it’s an offer you can’t refuse. If it is not a clue, we do not know what it is. Yes, we are talking about the godfather of all mafia films – the 1972 film with the late actor Marlon Brando and Al Pacino. Wednesday morning, Deepika shared a poster of Francis Ford Coppola’s The Godfather on her Instagram story and she wrote, “Watch it now.” The classic clearly needs no introduction, but for those who need it, The Godfather was the first episode of the trilogy, which focused on the journeys of Patriarch Vito Corleone and his reluctant son Michael, who finds himself tangled in the mafia world. The film has acquired cult status and can be described as the dream of every moviegoer come true.
Here’s what Deepika shared:
