Here’s something cool! Deepika Padukone has been nominated for a Teen Choice award for her role as Serena in xXx: Return of Xander Cage. The awards honor the year’s biggest achievements in music, film, sports, television, fashion, and more.
Her portrayal of the strong Serena Unger in the action movie got rave reviews from audiences and critics. Talking about her role, Deepika told us in an earlier interview, ” ‘Wow, this is a really strong character’. Serena is so instrumental in everything that happens in this movie. She is smart and she is intelligent. She is very important in sort of driving this whole thing forward. It is important for me to do films where there is something for me to do or play characters that I identify with or not identify with, characters that have a lasting impression – Triple X gave me that. It also came into my life at a time when I was looking at a different kind of challenge.”
She also gave a shoutout to her fans! “The fact that they had so much faith in my choice and the fact that they were so supportive, them knowing that if I am doing something I must be doing something right, and knowing that my fans have their faith in me really gave me the courage and the strength to go out there and do what I do. Not just with this movie but every single day.”
