Deepika Padukone is beating one milestone after another and it’s making us grin with pride. Having recently become the highest paid female actor in Bollywood, the Bajirao Mastani actress now features in the iconic fashion magazine Vanity Fair, as one of Hollywood’s new crop of actors. She’s seen in a sexy Gucci outfit and looks like she’s out to win it all.
This is a big deal for Deepika considering that she’s yet to make her Hollywood debut, but is making all the right moves there. She’s quite the fashionista too and really knows how to own whatever she wears. Deepika always chooses comfort over everything else when it comes to defining her personal style.
I think you have to feel complete. I think you need to feel like you’re wearing the clothes and the clothes aren’t wearing you.Deepika Padukone (Vanity Fair)
We couldn’t agree more. Maybe that’s why Deepika looks downright stunning in WHATEVER she picks, be it a pair of ripped denims or a royal ensemble. And when it comes to draping a sari, she’s unbeatable.
Vanity Fair has also included other young actors such as Elizabeth Debicki from The Great Gatsby and The Man From U.N.C.L.E, Lily Collins who played Snow White in Mirror, Mirror, and Elvis Presley’s granddaughter Riley Keough, who was seen in Mad Max: Fury Road.
If I had a choice between a gown and a sari, I’d wear a sari.Deepika Padukone (Vanity Fair)
Hollywood is clearly sitting up and taking notice of Bollywood’s leading lady already. Her upcoming flick xXx: Return of Xander Cage with Vin Diesel will hit theatres on January 2017.
Deepika also told Vanity Fair a lot more about herself that we’re sure you’ll dig-
