She absolutely rocked in a black polka dot scoop neckline sleeveless short choli and a low slung voluminous floral lehnga, with a coordinated polka dot crinkled dupatta.

The necklace supported a chandelier pendant studded with white kundan and a smaller red stone in the middle. She wore matching chandelier earrings.
She repeated the bangles from her New York premiere on her left arm. A matching crystal bindi and her radiant skin, evident through her light makeup, took our breath away.

Akshay Kumar's Canada based pal Ajay Virmani has been reported to lend his luxury seven-seater jet to the Chandni Chowk team to travel from one premiere to another across the world.
Deepika features in a dual role in the film. She plays Meow - a sexy and brash girl, and Sakhi - who is very tacky with over-the-top makeup. They're contrasting personalities, but very interesting.
For her action role in the film Deepika was trained in jiu-jitsu, a martial art and combat sport that focuses on grappling and especially ground fighting.
Chandni Chowk to China is an action-comedy about a lowly Mumbai cook who is mistaken for a martial arts hero. It's a story inspired by Akshay Kumar's real life.
The first ever Bollywood Kungfu comedy takes you on a madcap journey from the by-lanes of Chandni Chowk in Delhi, to Shanghai, the Great Wall and rural China and is replete with hilarious gags, breathtaking action, spectacular locations, and over the top emotions.
Distributed by Warner Bros., the film is due in theaters on January 16.
