Deepika's First Time in First Class. Discoveries Aboard a Rail Gaadi

New Delhi: Jab they met on Sunday afternoon, it was at Mumbai Central station from where Tamasha co-stars Deepika Padukone and Ranbir Kapoor were taking the Suvidha Express to New Delhi, where they are promoting their film . The 12-hour journey was one typical of Indian Railways, full of conversations, chai and a 3 am platform moment at Kota Junction. For both actors, the journey was a novelty but in different ways.

What happens in Corsica may or may not stay in Corsica, but what happens on a train in India definitely does not stay there. News agency ANI was onboard the Suvidha Express with Team Tamasha and discovered that Deepika, 29, was a train veteran but new to first class travel and Ranbir, born with the proverbial silver spoon into a leading Bollywood dynasty, had taken a train only once in his whole life and that was abroad.

Deepika, daughter of badminton champ Prakash Padukone, played the sport seriously for several years.

Cinematically speaking, that's not entirely true. There was this:
 

And, of course, this.
 

Off-screen, however, Ranbir has never had the pleasure of jostling his way down the platform in hot pursuit of the luggage-laden coolie striding ahead at express speed, played compartment antakshari and taash, fought over who gets which berth, bolted down the tray of comestibles that passes for 'dinner' or hopped off onto the platform in search of chai and fresh air.

You have our sympathies, sir.

Meanwhile, here's a look at the Tamasha on the train.
