The makers of Project K dropped in an intriguing glimpse of Deepika Padukone's character from the film on Thursday to mark her birthday. While her face wasn't revealed, they created an air of mystery around her role among fans. Soon after the poster released, many were reminded of the 2021 Hollywood film Dune.
In the poster, we can see Deepika's silhouette as she posed against the sun standing on top of a mountain hill. This made people assume that her character might be inspired by or set in a similar space as Dune and compared her look with Zendaya.
