After making her debut with Bollywood badshah Shahrukh Khan in Om Shanti Om, actress Deepika Padukone has bagged a dream to share the screen space with none other than Rajinikanth, who is considered as being a genius in his own lunchtime.

The dimpled beauty met the film makers during the last week and praised the storyline.

Though happy with the offer, the actress has no dates to give the film's producers at this time.

But, the actress, who is a big Rajini buff, is now trying her best to make adjustments in her dates to house a flick with the southern superstar.

Apparently, the actress is really keen on working with Rajini, regardless of her tight schedule.

As per Deepika's source, "Deepika has been offered the film and a meeting with its producers also went off well. The film has Rajnikanth in a double role. The makers felt that Deepika was perfect for the lead role and that she would fit the character very well. Unfortunately, the producers of the film want to take it on floors this year and Deepika already has her hands full."

Deepika's 2011 diary is consumed by Aarakshan, Desi Boys and a movie with Saif Ali Khan amongst other things.

"Now she is trying hard to adjust her dates so she doesn't miss out on a once in a lifetime opportunity to work with Rajnikanth," the source added.

While confirming the news, the actress said, "I am really honoured to be approached to act with Rajinikanth."
