Deepika Padukone On Collaboration With Louis Vuitton:

"When Ethan James Green was shooting me for the Louis Vuitton campaign last year, I saw the images with the logo on the monitor and I thought to myself, 'Yeah, whatever, they are just going to put it on their social media and use me like an influencer' and I moved on from that," Padukone said.

However, Padukone soon realized that Louis Vuitton had bigger plans for her. "A few months later, I was in Cannes as part of the film festival jury when I looked out the car window on my way to the red carpet and saw this huge storefront with my face on it. That's when it finally hit me—this is happening," she said.

Padukone also spoke about her love for India and her desire to stay based there, even though she has achieved global success. "Why do I need to move with bag and baggage to have global impact? Early on in my modelling career, I had an offer to move overseas and all of the fashion gurus in India said, 'You shouldn’t be here, you should be in Paris, New York or Milan,' and I was like, 'No, those places are not my home. India is home'," she said.
