If you thought Bollywood divas can't be best friends, it's time to wake up and smell the coffee. Being best friends with another female actor is now a reality in B-Town. We don't just spot two female actors together almost every other day, but the news of one going out of the way for the other is often fodder for the grapevine.

Priyanka, who will share screen space with Deepika for the first time in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Bajirao Mastani, shares a special bond with her co-actor. Though Deepika and Priyanka play the two ladies in Bajirao's (played by Ranveer Singh) life in the period drama, in real life, the two actors have become affectionate towards each other. So much so, that Priyanka ordered some dance gear for herself for Bajirao Mastani, and the actor could not stop herself from ordering another one for her new best friend Deepika.

According to a report published in Pinkvilla, Priyanka has gifted the dance kit to Deepika. Shampa Sonthalia, who is choreographing the two actors in Bajirao Mastani, said that there is no rivalry between Priyanka and Deepika. "There is simply no competition between the two. Priyanka and Deepika are very good friends. Priyanka had ordered some dance kit for herself and she ordered an extra for Deepika."
