Aamir Khan played a doubles match with the Padukones and won

On Sunday evening, Deepika Padukone and dad Pakash Padukone played a doubles badminton match against Aamir Khan and Aparna Popat, at the annual tournament for the Padukone Academy run by the one-time badminton champion.
Even though the actress lost the match against Aamir, Deepika believes it’s the sportsmanship that won at the end of the day. In her words, “I  know that Aamir plays badminton at the Khar gym. He’s extremely fit and a great player. It was an incredible experience to play opposite him.” 
Deepika who’s extremely passionate about badminton adds that she always enjoys pairing with dad on the court, “Even after so many years dad is such a driving force and an inspiration for badminton enthusiasts.
I remember in the older days when he would train in Bangalore there were no high roof courts, so he would play in shaadi mandaps. From that day to having his own badminton academy he’s come a long way.”
The actress grabs every opportunity to promote any kind of sport activity. “I have always been a champion of fitness and well being. I think badminton is a great sport for anyone who wants to increase his stamina and fitness level.”
