I am using bootstrap-datepicker in my code. How Do I select current date in JavaScript and show it as selected?

After research this is code I am using but current day does not appear as selected:

var today = moment();

datepicker1.datepicker({
    endDate: today.toDate()
}); 

datepicker2.datepicker({
    startDate: today .toDate(),
    endDate: today.toDate()
});

datepicker1.datepicker('setDate', today.toDate());
datepicker2.datepicker('setDate', today.toDate());

datepicker1.datepicker('update');  //update the bootstrap datepicker
datepicker2.datepicker('update');
