Ever since the announcement of her Hollywood venture last year, Deepika Padukone has been making news for her movie, XXX: The Return of Xander Cage in which she stars with cult Hollywood icons Vin Diesel and Samuel Jackson. Now that the movie has reached its promotional stages, Deepika and Vin have created quite a buzz for being seen together to promote the XXX franchise in different countries.
On starting the shoots for XXX: The Return of Xander Cage, Vin said “Deepika is incredible” and that “Deepika is somebody with whom he’s always wanted to work for a long time.” He added, “It’s very exciting and she’s going to be such a delight and the world is going to go crazy about her.”
In 2016, Deepika tweeted her first pic with Vin Diesel.
Soon after that, we witnessed these stormy pictures from the shoots, which spoke of a scorching on-screen romance. We can’t blame the rumour mills for working overtime after this, take a look.

Then we also got to see Deepika visit Vin Diesel’s angelic daughter Pauline. Vin posted this pic himself on his Facebook Page.
Well, that seems like a lot more interaction than just film sets! From what we saw in the trailer, Deepika’s character Serena Unger, an ex-flame of Xander Cage is quite the charm for the heavy built NSA agent.
The latest that we saw of the two of them was in a video in Mexico where Vin wishes Deepika on her 30th birthday.
Not that Deepika’s the first to receive this adulation from Vin Diesel, we’ve seen high notes of his friendship towards the Fast and Furious legend, Paul Walker, in the past and now Deepika surely looks like a “real friend”.
