It's hard to notice anyone else with Deepika Padukone around: Vin Diesel

Deepika PadukoneVin I love you Vinnnnnn the scream came not from a crazed teen but from a toddler hardly two feet tall We were at the lobby of a Central Mumbai fivestar hotel on Friday afternoon as we had been assured an interview with Vin Diesel and his costar Deepika Padukone who are promoting their film xXx Return of Xander CageVin DieselBe it journalists or the paparazzi and even Deepikas family we realised we were part of a long chain of people waiting to meet them by prior appointment So one by one we were passed on from person to another our credentials checked and after waiting for almost four hours the big moment arrived We were told we had exactly five minutes to wrap up the interview Hi said Vin dressed as a quintessential Bollywood star in a black shirt green cargos and bootsThe Hollywood actors twoday India trip had been packed with fan meets a glitzy red carpet gala a starstudded premiere and media interactions and Vin said that he thoroughly enjoyed every moment Meeting so many Bollywood stars was really amazing I have known many of them and seen some of their work too So it was a wonderful experience I imagine watching them break out of Bollywood and doing some other work Ask him if anyone caught his attention and he looks at Deepika who is blushing To be 100 per cent honest its hard for anyone to do that when you have this woman next to you he said with a big grin and added She has been a wonderful host and like I always say she is someone with a beautiful soulCommenting on Bollywood films Vin believes one thing that films in America lack is showing off their culture The song and dance format is something that is missing from Hollywood A lot of people would agree that films here are less reserved in terms of reflecting their culture I am not big on tradition and like to break the mould and push things further Ask the actress if she had shown Vin any of her films and she said The first film I showed him was Bajirao Masatani Vin quickly added She looked absolutely stunning in it He almost broke into a jig sitting in his chair as he said I love the song MastaniIt is then that the manager loudly announced Last question We asked him if he can remember the first day of the xXx shoot and he recalls My reaction was mdash finally There were so many crew members but I could feel a direct connection with Deepika which I knew would inevitably transcend on screen too It was a powerful moment Vin concludes It was a perfect first shot We had built up the anticipation of working with each other So when we were shooting the sequence even before my character looked at her I could hear her voiceI would definitely love to do a Bollywood film with her
