Vin Diesel needs to put a shirt on and sweat it out in a gym for a good couple of years before returning to this photoshoot. And Deepika, we expected better from you!

I am note either has Deepika worked with Salmana Khan or not! If yes than this wouldn't be new experience for her...otherwise if she had wish to work Salman than going to be fulfill but with Vin!
