Wax nostalgic: When Deepika Padukone played tennis in Delhi alongside Roger Federer

With a career spanning more than 15 years, Deepika Padukone is one of the most successful Indian actors. Few people know that Deepika played badminton nationally before making her Bollywood debut. She is also the daughter of former badminton player Prakash Padukone, but did you know that in 2014, the world champion tennis player Roger Federer paired up with the Om Shanti Om actress to play a friendly match in Delhi?

The International Premier Tennis League (IPTLopening )'s ceremony was attended by the Bajirao Mastani actress in addition to Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, Novak Djokovic, Sania Mirza, and Sunil Gavaskar. We found these old photos of Deepika and Roger playing tennis at an event in 2014, which are the ideal Flashback Friday treat. The actress appeared in it dressed in a black tank top, matching black tights, and white sneakers, with her hair, pulled back into a ponytail. As she engages the tennis player in conversation, Deepika can also be seen beaming broadly.



Roger Federer announced his retirement on Thursday, telling supporters that the forthcoming Laver Cup in London will be his last match.
