Two actresses can't be friends, it is said, but Deepika Padukone and Priyanka Chopra seemed to shatter that myth by bonding like BFFs. And their cool chemistry and camaraderie was evident in the 'Pinga' track from 'Bajirao Mastani' (2015). However, now it seems all isn't well between the duo.

Sources involved with an upcoming Bollywood awards show in Spain reveal that the two hotties were supposed to match steps to the song on stage, but Deepika wasn't game for it. A source says, "The organisers had approached Priyanka and Deepika for a joint performance, and the former was enthused by the proposal. However, Deepika refused to perform alongside her contemporary for reasons best known to her."

Another source says the two girls weren't really bonding during the shoot of 'Bajirao Mastani' as it was made out to be. "They were formal with each other and stories of them bonding and not being competitive had been cooked up. A professional rivalry does exist between them. Both actresses are trying their luck in Hollywood with Priyanka being part of American TV show 'Quantico' and Hollywood film 'Baywatch' while Deepika has a release opposite Vin Diesel.

Priyanka and Deepika remained unavailable for comment.
