Deepika Padukone Reveals about the Pressure in Representing India on Global Level

Recently, Deepika Padukone became the face to International luxury brand Louis Vuitton as the first Indian representative to their global campaign. The actor will be featured in Louis Vuitton’s 2020 pre-fall campaign which is a historic move for the brand as well as the actor.

Talking about if she felt the pressure in representing the nation with this particular achievement, the actress shares,

I didn’t think of it like that. The brand would be better equipped to answer why they thought of me. It’s not only exciting, but an absolute privilege as these opportunities don’t present themselves very often. I appreciate the fact that somewhere in my journey of authenticity and honesty, I am being able to collaborate with iconic brands.
