'Madaari' is outstanding, says Deepika Padukone

Mumbai: Actress Deepika Padukone has lauded her "Piku" co-star Irrfan Khan's film "Madaari", hailing it as a movie which will "stir" people emotionally.

The thriller-drama talks about taking a stand and shouldering responsibility, while it also showcases the bond between a father and son.

The "Bajirao Mastani" actress, who starred opposite Irrfan in Shoojit Sircar's "Piku" last year, said "Madaari" will get the viewers thinking.

"It's outstanding. I think it's one of those films that's going to stay with us for a very very long time and going to get all of us thinking, and it's going to stir you up emotionally," Deepika said in a statement.

Irrfan and director Nishikant Kamat teamed up again for "Madaari" after their critically acclaimed "Mumbai Meri Jaan" in 2008.

The movie, which also stars Jimmy Shergill, released on July 22.
