If that toned back isn't a giveaway, the famed tattoo on the nape assures Deepika Padukone's presence. The 'Padmaavat' actress dropped in at an awards ceremony organised by the Italian Consulate at a Juhu five-star on Friday.

Deepika looked gorgeous in a red and white striped saree which she teamed up with a long-sleeved black blose. She had tied up her hair neatly in a bun. Deepika was earlier spotted at events where pictures showed her sans the famous tattoo. Whether clever photoshopping or make-up we will never know the mystery behind that we guess.
