Cannes is now ready to welcome<br />
yet another Bollywood diva who<br />
has become a part of Hollywood<br />
already and she is none other<br />
than Deepika Padukone. After<br />
xXx: Return Of Xander Cage, she<br />
seems to have become a sweet<br />
heart among the fraternity.<br />
As per reports, Deepika is<br />
now set to turn heads at the<br />
Cannes Film Festival one more<br />
time. Deepika has become the<br />
brand ambassador of a leading<br />
beauty product, which is already<br />
endorsed by Bollywood beauties<br />
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and<br />
fashion diva Sonam Kapoor.<br />
This means that Deepika is<br />
likely to walk the red carpet<br />
of the 70th annual<br />
Cannes Film<br />
Festival, which<br />
is scheduled to<br />
be held between<br />
May 17 and 28,<br />
this year. This<br />
will be the second<br />
time she will be<br />
attending the<br />
prestigious<br />
event.<br />
The<br />
last time Deepika attended<br />
the movie galore was back in<br />
2010. This is not the end - her<br />
connections in Hollywood<br />
are getting powerful as she<br />
progresses.<br />
According to a source close<br />
to Deepika’s team, the actress<br />
values Vin Diesel’s advice on<br />
professional matters a lot.<br />
Apparently, all the scripts that<br />
are coming to her are getting<br />
screened by the Riddick actor.<br />
So you might get to see him in<br />
some capacity in Deepika’s next<br />
Hollywood venture; may be as a<br />
producer, or as an actor. For that,<br />
we definitely will have to wait.<br />
It seems their bond has only<br />
become stronger after shooting<br />
for xXx: Return Of Xander Cage.<br />
We have seen their chemistry<br />
on and off the screen during<br />
the promotions. That was<br />
enough to tell us that they<br />
have become great friends.<br />
Guess that’s why he is<br />
lending professional advice<br />
since he has been part of<br />
that industry for so long and<br />
knows how it works.•
