Hyderabad: At the BAFTA Film Awards 2024, actor Deepika Padukone presented actor Jonathan Glazer with the award for Best Film not in English for The Zone of Interest. The 77th BAFTA Film Awards ceremony was held in London's Royal Festival Hall.

The Zone of Interest is a UK-Polish historical play about the Auschwitz concentration camp. The film is based on Martin Amis' 2014 novel.

Deepika turned heads on the red carpet of the BAFTA Awards 2024, wearing a golden and silver shimmering saree with sequins all over it. She wore it with a matching blouse featuring strappy sleeves.
She went glam with dewy makeup and kohl-rimmed eyes. Her dishevelled hair bun and bold earrings certainly enhanced her appearance. Deepika recently expressed her thanks for being selected as a BAFTA Award presenter. Deepika took to Instagram Stories and wrote, "Gratitude."
