Highlights
- xXx stars Deepika as Serena Unger
- This is her first Hollywood film
- She went live with Vin Diesel post dinner and the day's shooting
We've been seeing several photographs of Deepika Padukone from the sets of her first Hollywood film,
xXx: The Return of Xander Cage,
go viral - but forget all that, this video of her and co-star Vin Diesel eclipses whatever you've seen so far.
Deepika has returned to USA to film some portions of
xXx 3 and went live on Facebook with Vin after calling it a day. It was after dinner in her time zone, approaching lunch hour in India.
Deepika stars as Serena Unger opposite Vin Diesel and the
Furious 8 actor, clearly smitten with his
Indian co-star, had a whole bunch of great things to say about her. She'll soon be as famous around the world as she is at home, said Vin, who reprises his role as Xander Cage in the third film of the
xXx series.
How cute are these two? And here's
the best bit - Deepika got Vin to say, "
Namaste, main aap sabhi ko bahut pyaar karta hoon."
Vin Diesel, you're certainly right about Deepika Padukone's impending global domination. She's already been featured in Vanity Fair's line-up of rising international stars.
xXx: The Return of Xander Cage is one of the most awaited films of 2017. Deepika, who was last seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's
Bajirao Mastani, is expected to perform some hard-core action in the film.
Directed by DJ Caruso, it also stars Samuel L Jackson,
The Vampire Diaries' Nina Dobrev,
Orange Is The New Black's Ruby Rose and Donnie Yen.
