Actress Diana Penty is more than happy for her "Cocktail" co-star Deepika Padukone for her "great achievement" of making her Hollywood debut with the film "xXx: The Return of Xander Cage".
Diana, who ventured into Bollywood in 2012 with "Cocktail" starring alongside Deepika and Saif Ali Khan, says she is proud of the "Bajirao Mastani" star.
"It is a great achievement. We all are so proud of her. It is an amazing achievement. She has managed to put Bollywood on the map along with Priyanka Chopra," Diana, whose film "Happy Bhaag Jayegi" released earlier this month, told IANS.
In "xXx: The Return of Xander Cage", Deepika shares screen space with Hollywood star Vin Diesel.
Directed by D.J. Caruso, it is a sequel to the 2002 film "xXx" and 2005 film "xXx: State of the Union". It also stars Ruby Rose, Samuel L. Jackson, Donnie Yen and Tony Jaa. The film is slated to release on January 20, 2017.
