Take a look at Deepika Padukone's post here:
Before stepping into the Indian entertainment industry, Deepika was a Badminton player, just like her father Prakash Padukone. Earlier this year, Deepika shared a post to commemorate her father Prakash Padukone's big day, when he created history by becoming the first Indian to win the All England Badminton Championship 40 years ago. A proud Deepika, in her post wrote: "Papa, your contribution to Badminton and Indian sports is immeasurable! Thank you for your inspiring display of dedication, discipline, determination and years of hard work! They don't make you like you anymore...We love you and are proud of you! Thank you for being you!"
