Needless to say, Vin Diesel's descent from the skies was given a blockbuster reception.

and will address the press in the evening. There will also be a premiere of
xXx: The Return Of Xander Cage. Some days ago, Deepika posted this tweet to welcome Vin to India:
Deepika Padukone, who spent the entire first half of 2016 filming xXx 3 abroad, plays a secret agent named Serena Unger in the film. Vin Diesel plays the titular Xander Cage, an extreme athlete-turned-government agent. In the third instalment of the series, Xander Cage is revealed to be alive after being presumed dead - the 49-year-old actor skipped the second film of the series.
After Deepika
completes her publicity duties for xXx 3, she will resume filming her next Bollywood project, the Sanjay Leela Bhansali-directed
Padmavati. She stars as the Rajput queen of the title, with Shahid Kapoor and Ranveer Singh cast opposite her. Deepika's last Hindi film was 2015's
Bajirao Mastani.
