She may be the highest paid actress in Bollywood today. But long before she became the reigning queen of the Hindi film industry, Deepika Padukone was a Kingfisher Swimsuit Model. In the same year she appeared in the Kingfisher Swimsuit Calendar, Deepika Padukone also made her silver screen debut opposite Shah Rukh Khan in Om Shanti Om.
