Be patient, just wait and watch: Deepika Padukone on xXx

Her barely-there appearance in the first teaser-trailer of her Hollywood debut “xXx: The Return of Xander Cage” may have left fans disappointed but actress Deepika Padukone has assured that there is more to be unveiled in the coming days.

The 1 minute 24 seconds teaser video of the film, which was released yesterday, was dominated by Vin Diesel, Samuel L Jackson and features Deepika wielding a gun and spinning a blade in not more than three shots.

The 30-year-old “Bajirao Mastani” actress, who was in the capital to attend a fashion show, asked her fans to be patient and not jump to conclusions as there is a lot of time left till the film’s release.

“There is more than six months to go. Be patient, just wait and watch. Every few days we will be putting up a new campaign. It is also the return of the film after many years, return of Xander Cage (Diesel), and that is what it is. But slowly and slowly more will be unveiled,” Deepika said.

The action film directed by D J Caruso, also stars Donnie Yen, Ruby Rose, Nina Dobrev and Rory McCann. It is the third film in the “xXx” franchise. Earlier films are 2002 movie “xXx” and “xXx: State of the Union” released in 2005.

“xXx: The Return of Xander Cage” will hit theatres on January 20, 2017.
