The Hollywood actor posted a photo to Instagram last week of the two of them, presumably taken during promotional duties for the fast-paced threequel.
Both are having a great time, as Padukone holds a drink in one hand and takes Diesel’s hand in the other.
He simply captioned the snap “#xXxThursdays”, and Padukone isn’t the only cast member he clearly has fond memories of working with.
Ruby Rose was the subject of a similar light-hearted Instagram post just one week earlier.

It was confirmed recently that a new xXx movie will be made, with all key players hoped to return.
Speaking on Twitter, director DJ Caruso told a follower when asked if he’s “replaced” any stars: “All coming back.”
He also said when directly asked if Padukone’s character Serena will be involved: “Oh yes.”
Speaking to Express.co.uk in May, Caruso admitted that Padukone’s fans proved to be a force to be reckoned with.

“I remember getting some of her fans reaching out to me saying they were a little disappointed that ‘you’re taking her away’, because usually in the Bollywood system she could get two or three movies done in a year,” he recalled.
“And now we’re taking her away for five months, so she’s not going to have another Bollywood movie!
“They were really used to getting two or three films [a year] with her and one was not enough.”
