Deepika Padukone speaks about her popularity in the US
Deepika Padukone's Hollywood debut, 'xXx: The Return Of Xander Cage' is all set to release tomorrow in the US. It is indeed a big day for the actress as she is out and about promoting the film. Directed by D.J Caruso, the film also stars Vin Diesel alongside Deepika. Vin, Deepika, and Caruso promoted the film amidst much fanfare in Mumbai before its release in India.

The team is currently in the US for promotions and in one of the interactions, Deepika was asked about the welcome she received in Hollywood. To this, the actress said, "I do feel welcome. It has been amazing and I am having so much fun being here and doing all of this. It can be intimidating when you tread new territories. But it has been exactly the same."

When further questioned about her popularity in the US, Deepika was not reluctant to say that she was less known in the US. And added, "Yes. It is nice being less recognised in the US. I enjoy it, at least for now."

On the work front, Deepika will return to India and continue to shoot for Sanjay Leela Bhansali's magnum opus, 'Padmavati'.
