Deepika Padukone photographed at the Mumbai airport.
Deepika Padukone flies to Canada for another adventure on Tuesday; this one with a Hollywood twist. The actress, who took a mini break after a hectic and rewarding 2015, has been fulfilling her brand commitments as she sweats out every day in the gym working hard on an already toned body.
Deepika, who joins Vin Diesel for
xXx: The Return of Xander Cage had admitted that she was a bag of nerves, and excited about her 'Hollywood debut'. She felt proud that she had been chosen for her ethnicity. Deepika said to NDTV: "I am moving out of my comfort zone; working with some very new people in a new set up." (Also Read:

Though she didn't elaborate what the role was, she felt the time was right. The actress had earlier turned down a role in
Fast and Furious 7.
"I want to keep challenging myself and this was the time to explore something more now," Deepika said. She added: "Sometime you try everything in your capacity to make somethings work and they don't and sometimes things fall into your lap and things work around it and this was one such moment. Very, very exciting times ahead of me. I'm nervous but hope it's fun and I do well and make everyone proud."
And yes, she hasn't signed a single Hindi film in 2016 or so she says. "Once I'm back I will decide," she said.
All we can say is go girl, and make us proud.
