Vin Diesel calls Deepika Padukone 'one of my favourite people to work with', actor responds

Los Angeles/Mumbai: Hollywood star Vin Diesel says he is looking forward to visiting India again years after Deepika Padukone, his co-star in "XXX: Return of Xander Cage" brought him to the country.

Diesel came to India in 2017 to promote "XXX: Return of Xander Cage", the American action thriller film which marked Padukone's Hollywood debut.

Diesel posted a still of him and Padukone from the movie on Instagram and called the "Pathaan" star one of his "favourite people to work with".

"Spirit lead me... @deepikapadukone was one of my favourite people to work with. She brought me to India and I loved it... looking forward to my return. All love, always," the 55-year-old actor wrote on Saturday night.

Padukone, who played the role of Serena Unger in "XXX: Return of Xander Cage", shared Diesel's post on her Instagram Story with hearts.

On his visit to India in 2017, Diesel interacted with fans at a special musical event ahead of the film's premiere. He also shook a leg with Padukone on her hit track "Lungi Dance" from "Chennai Express".
