The actress has been keeping mum about her BIG debut all this while!
Reigning queen Deepika Padukone will soon be dazzling all over the world with her Hollywood debut next to popular international star Vin Diesel in his forthcoming film xXx: Return of Xander Cage.
The lady has hardly talked about her golden ticket to the west until now. Present for a recent event in Delhi for a brand she endorses, DP finally spilled beans about her latest project. “I am excited, but very nervous. I’m stepping out of my comfort zone. I’m moving out of my country working with a new set of people so am very nervous,” she said. When asked why she chose a Vin Diesel-film when she has been doing so well in her home country, she said, “I don’t know why everyone feels like this for me. As an actor, it’s always been to challenge myself to do different things and this seemed the right choice.”
Deepika has not signed any film for this year as she wants to give her undivided attention to the project she currently has in hand. Her favourite co-star and a close friend Priyanka Chopra also came out in support for her in a recent interview. “I am so excited about it and I hope it is true. I wish that more actors from India come into global entertainment. We are extremely talented and we can match steps with anyone in the global entertainment industry. Actors like Irrfan and Anil Kapoor have paved the way for me here. I am proud of Deepika. It is time for Indian actors to stand up and take credit for the fact that we come from one of the most prolific industries in the world,” she said.
