Unplanned turns planned for Irrfan and Deepika at Piku's trailer launch

Not very often do you see co-stars being colour coordinated at an event unless it's planned. But the lead pair of 'Piku' Irrfan Khan and Deepika Paduokne were spotted colour coordinated at the films trailer launch event. A source close to the duo said, "It was just a mere coincidence and was not planned."

The talented duo who captivated all by their really easy and healthy chemistry were also seen wearing the same pastel green. They really pulled it off in style and were looking dapper in their outfits. With the trailer out, theonscreen chemistry of Irrfan and Deepika has taken everyone by surprise. The trailer has become a talking point on social media with audiences praising the lead pair.

Though Deepika is Irrfan's love interest in the film, he is not your typical lover boy, enabling him to essay his character in the film, which could be very challenging for quite a few actors, with a lot of depth.
