BAFTA 2024: The X User Tweeted Calling Deepika Padukone Some Random Girl!

Deepika Padukone is winning hearts the world over one international appearance at a time. The actress is fresh from conquering the BAFTA 2024 where she presented an award in a glittering Sabyasachi saree. Her look has clearly been a hit with many, at least one of whom has – or rather, had - no idea who she was. On X, a post compared singer Dua Lipa unfavourably with Deepika's appearance. "Idk who she is but girl ate that look," read the caption to a picture of Deepika in her saree. "Istg if Dua doesn't serve like this," the post added.

For those not well-versed in Internet slang, IDK means "I don't know" and ISTG stands for "I swear to God." "Idk who is she," the X user repeated when comments began identifying Deepika Padukone. "Idk but that outfit is everything," the user responded to a comment, "Watching some random girl eat so bad and then there'll be Dua in a plain black gown." The word 'random' hit a nerve. "Random? She's the biggest IT girl of Bollywood," replied an indignant desi, with advice to look up the actress' previous appearances. There were other responses in the comments about Deepika's achievements.
