Deepika Padukone - Indian Of The Year 2013 Award

Deepika Padukone is surely the frontrunner for all the awards this year.This actress recently was honoured with the 'Indian of the Year 2013 award' for her contribution to the entertainment industry.

A news channel honoured 11 extraordinary Indians across Politics, Sports, Entertainment, Business and Public Service categories.

Deepika received the special achievement award from her father and former badminton star 'Prakash Padukone'.

The actress was awarded for her acting abilities, which she showcased in 2013 with movies like "Race 2", "Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani", "Chennai Express" and "Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-leela".

In a statement Deepika said, "I have always done what seemed right to me and my parents supported me all throughout. I never sit and analyze before signing a movie if it will be a hit or not, rather just go by my heart. If I like the script, nothing else matters to me. I feel so proud to have received it (Indian of the Year award) from my father." 

Even Kapil Sharma won the same award for his show "Comedy Nights With Kapil". 

Kapil said, "It's the year of the common man and I am also one of them. To be awarded amidst such eminent personalities and dignitaries it's a great achievement in itself. I have always believed in working and entertaining the common man and that I think is the success mantra of my life." 

We congratulate Deepika and Kapil for the honour they have received.
