From her traditional greeting with 'Namaste' to the signature 'lungi dance,' Deepika Padukone was a star on the 'The Late Late Show with James Corden.'

The 31-year-old actress appeared on the show with her 'xXx: Return of Xander Cage,' co-star Vin Diesel.

In one of the sequences, when Corden asked Deepika, 'What is the Lungi Dance?' she, while explaining what lungi is and how did this 'lungi dance' come to existence, said, "I did a movie about two years ago, where in the movie, we came up with this song called the Lungi Dance, where we wear the lungi and we do the dance. But our friend Vin here thinks it's like a classic traditional.he thinks it's actually a style of dance that exists in India."

The fun does not end here. She added, "So, he's doing all his interviews in India, very seriously about the lungi dance versus break dance."

Vin interrupted and said, "I thought that was a parallel."

"He's doing all these serious interviews and I'm like.(we are dead!)" Deepika concluded with a laugh.

As a result, the host asked the Mastani of Bollywood to show a step or two and in place of a lungi, gave her his jacket to wrap around.

The official Twitter page of 'The Late Late Show' shared two adorable GIFs with the caption, "There has never been a better use of @reggiewatts' jacket.
