Deepika Padukone, who recently wrapped up shooting for her first Hollywood film xXx: The Return of Xander Cage, looks smoking hot in red. She confessed that she does not usually know who is wearing on the red carpet. "I will tell you something about me. This is a big give away. Usually, when I am on the red carpet, if somebody asks, ‘Who are you wearing?’, most often I don’t know (This is a big secret right now). But I know who I am styled by. So I usually say, I have been styled by so and so,” she told ANI
