"Well that was clearly for Shah Rukh. I was there for Shah Rukh and I will always be there for him," asserted the actress who made her Bollywood debut with Shah Rukh in the 2007 hit movie Om Shanti Om.
Deepika now supports "underdogs" Rajasthan Royals as according to her, they have been "pretty much consistent" in the tourney.
"I would say Rajasthan, because Chennai and Mumbai are obvious favourites for a lot of people and Rajasthan are the underdogs and they have been pretty much consistent in the tournament. So it would be Rajasthan," she explained.
Daughter of badminton legend Prakash Padukone, the 27-year-old said she had always wanted to be an actor.
"I follow badminton, I have been a national level player myself and I played till I was in the 10th standard and then I took a three month break to focus on my boards which in India is a very big deal and after that I somehow never got back.
"Somewhere as a child I think I always knew that being in front of the camera and acting is what I always wanted to do," she said.
Her next movie is Ayan Mukerji's Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani and Rohit Shetty's Chennai Express.
