But it looks like her Hollywood breakthrough may finally happen:

This Instagram post of Deepika's, where she has also tagged F&F main man Vin Diesel, has sparked rumours that she may be cast in another film of Vin Diesel's, XXX — Xander Cage Returns. Rumour has it that Deepika has already auditioned for the role, reports Times of India.

XXX — Xander Cage Returns is the third installment in the XXX series, which stars Vin Diesel as Xander Cage, a thrill seeking extreme sports enthusiast, stuntman and rebellious athlete-turned-reluctant spy for the National Security Agency who is sent on one dangerous mission after the other.

While we wait for the confirmation (or debunking) of this rumour, Deepika's film Tamasha is running in theatres and her upcoming film Bajirao Mastani hits screens on December 18.
