Deepika Padukone cherishes her showstopping Oscars 2023 pear-shaped yellow diamond necklace: “It was a really special moment” 2023 : Bollywood News - Bollywood Hungama (2024)

Deepika Padukone has become synonymous with elegance and grace. This association extends beyond the silver screen, as evidenced by her role as the brand ambassador for Cartier, the esteemed French luxury jeweller. In 2022, Cartier announced Padukone as their new face, and now, she takes center stage once again, captivating audiences as the embodiment of their latest high jewellery collection, "Nature Sauvage."

Nature Sauvage, meaning "Wild Nature" in French, presents a captivating new chapter in Cartier's ongoing exploration of the animal kingdom. The collection offers a fresh interpretation of the jeweller's bestiary, a menagerie of creatures that have long served as inspiration for Cartier's exquisite creations.The collection features classic Cartier motifs like the iconic Panther, but these majestic felines are reimagined in surprising settings. They might be found perched atop geometric shapes inspired by modern architecture, creating a juxtaposition that is both playful and thought-provoking. This interplay between the familiar and the unexpected infuses Nature Sauvage with a unique energy, reflecting the ever-evolving relationship between nature and humanity.

Padukone's portrayal of these captivating jewels perfectly embodies the collection's spirit. In a recent interview with Harper's Bazaar, she delved into her personal connection with jewellery. “Jewelry is an integral part of our culture and heritage,” Padukone explained. Growing up in India, a country steeped in rich traditions, she witnessed firsthand the way jewellery transcends mere adornment. “We grow up watching our mother and grandmother adorning themselves,” she said.

For Padukone, the value of jewellery lies not in its monetary worth but in the stories it carries. “It is not so much about the value or the price,” she emphasized, “but more about the emotion behind the jewellery.”

These early encounters not only sparked a love for jewellery but also instilled a deep understanding of its emotional weight. “You know as a little girl when you see your mother or grandmother getting ready to go out for an event,” Padukone reminisces, “It forms an impression on you.”

Padukone's jewellery collection reflects this sentimentality. She cherishes pieces passed down through generations, imbued with the love and history of her family. “I have small pieces that have been passed down to me as well as pieces that my mother bought for me when I was getting married,” she revealed.

The actress also holds a special place in her heart for pieces worn on momentous occasions. Recalling her experience at the 2023 Oscars, she describes being captivated by a stunning pear-shaped yellow diamond necklace at a Cartier boutique. “My favourite Cartier piece is the pear-shaped yellow diamond necklace that I wore to the Oscars in 2023. I remember walking into a Cartier boutique a month before the Oscars and setting my eyes on this beautiful piece with a stunning yellow diamond. I made a note of it in my head and then a couple of days later, I got a call to be a presenter at the Oscars. At that moment, I visualised myself on stage and pictured myself wearing this necklace. It was a really special moment, and it all came together so beautifully," she said, reflecting on the serendipitous way the necklace became a part of her red carpet look.

On the work front, Deepika has a busy work schedule ahead. She is currently starring in the science-fiction film Kalki 2898 AD. This project boasts a stellar cast, including Prabhas, Amitabh Bachchan, and Kamal Haasan.

Deepika will also be sharing the screen with Amitabh Bachchan once again in the Hindi remake of the Hollywood drama The Intern. She also has Rohit Shetty’s Singham Again.
