Change bootstrap datepicker date format on select

Question

I'm using bootstrap datepicker on a textbox. The default format of the date when you select a date is mm/dd/yyyy. Now I want to change it to dd/mm/yyyy. How can I accomplish this. Right now I'm just initializing it just like this.

$('.datepicker').datepicker() 

What should I add to change its format?
