Deepika Padukone and Vin Diesel attended the India premiere of xXx: The Return of Xander Cage in Mumbai on Thursday. Vin, dressed smartly in a black layered sherwani and Deepika in a stunning sheer cape dress, had their fans eating out of their hands as they bantered playfully with each other. What’s more, director DJ Caruso also announced a xXx sequel with Deepika Padukone. Yay!

We did a FB Live from the venue just for you:

Here are some highlights from the event.

I feel proud to be representing my country in a global platform where female characters have finally got their due.

It was just not the beauty and grace we could rely on, but it was also her (Deepika’s) willingness, commitment towards the role.

It was intentional for me to retain my Indian accent in the film.
