Deepika Padukone in Chandni Chowk to China Ma'am Bond: Although Chandni Chowk to China is perhaps the first ever Kung Fu comedy, what many are keen to see is not Akshay Kumar but Deepika Padukone doing stunts and using gizmos. Deepika, who plays the role of a sales girl in a telemarketing channel in the film uses gizmos similar to those in the James Bond films but in a funny way and not in any serious action sequence. Rohan Sippy, the producer of the film confirms this, saying, "Yes, Deepika uses many gadgets in the film though not in a sophisticated way as James Bond does. We had kept a separate budget for them. In the film she uses a multi language translator to good effect to translate Chinese into Hindi and a bullet proof umbrella which also acts as a parachute. There is a love spray that she uses to drive someone completely crazy. However, we have not copied any device from any Bond film. Sridhar Raghavan (writer of the film) had incorporated all these in his script and we have used all of them in a fun way and not in some high-tech manner." via:mumbaimirror
