After making Deepika Padukone a presenter at the 95th Academy Awards in Los Angeles last year, to introduce the performance of the Oscar-winning RRR song Naatu Naatu, the Academy's charm with the actor continues as it paid a tribute to her song Deewani Mastani on its official Instagram handle on Thursday.

On the social media platform, The Academy shared the clip of the actor dancing to the song from her 2015 film Bajirao Mastani. Sung by Shreya Ghoshal, Deewani Mastani is from filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s directorial, also featuring Ranveer Singh and Priyanka Chopra.

Sharing the clip of Padukone, the Oscars' official page wrote in the caption, “Deepika Padukone performing Deewani Mastani (sung by Shreya Ghoshal) from the movie Bajirao Mastani. Directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali. Starring Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone and Priyanka Chopra.”


Top commenter on the clip, which also features him in the said song, is none other than Padukone's husband and co-star Ranveer Singh. He commented, "Mesmeric!" A fan wrote, "The beauty of Deepika in this song, I don't think any other actress would be able to pull this off like her, this will go down as one of the greatest of all time in Hindi cinema!!"

A second commented, "Now The Academy is finally giving the recognition that Bollywood deserves." A third wrote, "Thank you for recognising the most beautifully shot song of all time."

Last year in March, Padukone introduced the performance of Oscar-winning RRR song Naatu Naatu at the 95th Academy Awards in Los Angeles. Naatu Naatu, composed by MM Keeravaani, made history by becoming the first ever Telugu song to not only be performed and nominated but also win at the Oscars.

While introducing the act, Padukone had said, “An irresistibly catchy chorus, electrifying beats and killer dance moves to match have made this next song a global sensation. It plays during a pivotal scene in RRR, a movie about the friendship between real-life Indian revolutionaries, Alluri Sitarama Raju and Komaram Bheem."

She added, "In addition to being sung in Telugu and illustrating the film’s anti-colonialist themes, it’s also a total banger. It’s got millions of views on YouTube and Tiktok, has audiences dancing in movie theatres all around the world, and is also the first song ever from an Indian production to be nominated for an Oscar.”
