Deepika Padukone has a phobia of snakes

While shooting for the second issue of Harper's Bazaar in Thailand, Deepika Padukone found snakes in quite close proximity.

Deepika always had a phobia about snakes. while Deepika was relaxing outside her room at night she saw a huge snake, almost three feet long with it's hood raised.

Deepika shuddered and said, "It was the scariest moment of my life. I jumped and screamed loudly. My mom was in her room and came out to see all the commotion was about but by that time the snake had slithered away."

But Deepika prefers to cite the incident as a positive one. Deepika said that in India, snakes are worshipped and it's a very good omen.

It was a privilege shooting for Harper's Bazaar India's second edition. Atul Kasbekar shot some great pictures in Thailand. Deepika is always ready for a good cause. Last week, she walked the ramp in a Carolina Herrera dress for Mai Mumbai at the Lakme Fashion Week ,a show put up by Vikram Chatwal and Naomi Campbell to raise funds for the 26/11 victims of the terror attacks. The funds are going for 26/11 victims and provide infrastructure like ambulances and first aid.
