Actress Deepika Padukone, who has everyone drooling over her latest release "Piku", says she is open to doing more of women-centric films but the character and the story should appeal to her.

"Then I would definitely do it. I won't do it for the heck of doing it," she added.
 
Further she says that her latest release "Piku' is one of those films I completely identified with. It's a story of every girl and every family," she added.
