Ever since the 'Padmavati' controversy began to snowball, Deepika Padukone has been surrounded by many security guards and policemen constantly. Also, the actress hasn't been able to freely move around or meet friends and family in the open. And due to the policemen and her bodyguard swarming around her, the actress' space has been restricted for weeks now. Also, obviously her fans haven't been allowed to come anywhere close to the actress.

A source said, “There have been times when the policemen and her personal bodyguards have almost clashed with each other, as they want to make sure that no one comes near Deepika when she is at public places like the airport. When Deepika went for a recent award function, she had to enter from a different area and chose to enter and exit through the kitchen, as the security would have hindered the event otherwise. Even when she has been hanging out with friends, the security cordon is around. Obviously, she is disturbed by the security after having them around for over three weeks now."

When Deepika went to London earlier this week, the actress was surrounded by nine policemen and bodyguards, who were keeping everyone at more than an arm’s distance and only Deepika’s mother Ujjala, who was accompanying her, was at ease, as she walked uninterrupted.
