 "Amid Deepika Padukone's 'Walk Of Fame Star' feat, Sonam Kapoor likes cryptic post that says 'The celebrity has to pay...'")
Yet again, Deepika Padukone has pinned India on the global map as Hollywood Chamber of Commerce honours Deepika with her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for the class of 2026 in Motion Pictures category. Announced over a live-stream, it becomes even more special as Deepika becomes the only Indian to receive this prestigious accolade. Our Indian superstar shares the class with Emily Blunt, Timothée Chalamet, Rami Malek, Rachel McAdams, Stanley Tucci, Demi Moore and many more renowned performers.
But Sonam Kapoor has liked a cryptic post that has gone viral on social media. The post reads- “Deepu’s getting a Hollywood Walk of Fame Star. Confirmed na? Fun fact: Once you get nominated (usually by fans who pay a nominal fee of 250 USD), the celebrity (or a brand that’s sponsoring said celeb) has to pay 75000-85000 USD for the installation and maintenance of the star.”
Amongst various world-renowned names, Deepika Padukone has carved a distinctive space for herself across territories - Indian entertainment industry as well as, Hollywood. While several global figures have been inducted into the Hall of Fame, Deepika stands tall as the only Indian to be bestowed with this honour. With this recognition, she not only represents India on the global stage but also reinforces the country’s presence and influence in the international arena.
Deepika has consistently brought glory to the nation on many fronts. Previously, she was named one of the 100 most influential people in the world by TIME in 2018 and was also a recipient of the TIME100 Impact Award. The global figure further made history by unveiling the FIFA World Cup trophy at the final match in Qatar.
