MID-DAY (September 9, 2016)

"Main aap sabhi ko bahut pyar karta hoon (I love you all a lot),” said Vin Diesel, repeating after his XXX: The Return of Xander Cage co-star Deepika Padukone as she gave him his first Hindi lesson via Facebook Live yesterday. The two got on to broadcast a rather cutesy “post-work dinner” live-feed on social media Thursday afternoon (India time) as Deepika returned to join the crew of her first Hollywood production.

“I can’t tell you how happy i am that she is in the movie and has brought her magic,” said Vin, promptly receiving a peck on the cheek from Deepika, in return for the compliment. “I know all of you in India know who Deepika is, but the world will get to know who she is after the release of XXX,” Vin said, giddily grinning throughout the broadcast, just like Deepika. Sounded like a winwin situation to us!
