When Jee Le Zaraa was introduced with Priyanka Chopra, Katrina Kaif and Alia Bhatt within the lead roles, it was seen as a casting coup. Getting three prime feminine stars in the identical movie in all probability would have been a tough process some years in the past, Priyanka mentioned in a brand new interview, as they might’ve been ‘pitted’ towards one another. Priyanka mentioned that her era has made ‘strides in making a sisterhood’ and a powerful neighborhood.
Speaking to Deadline, Priyanka famous how the early 2000’s have been ‘dominantly patriarchal’ and there would simply be one feminine lead who would emerge as the most effective. However, she notes that issues have modified. “Whether it is Bollywood or in America, what I’ve skilled is ladies standing up for girls. I’m doing a film in India now with two of the highest actresses within the nation, Katrina Kaif and Alia Bhatt, and the three of us determined we needed to do a film collectively and associate collectively to provide it.”
She added, “But the idea is, yes, it was very different when I started out. We were all pitted against each other, and our casting was very dependent on the lead actor of the movie, and it depends on who is the flavor at that time and that was a very unsettling feeling.”
Priyanka Chopra made inroads in Hollywood with the present Quantico, and later with movies equivalent to Baywatch, Isn’t It Romantic, The Matrix: Resurrections amongst others. She married Nick Jonas in 2018, and the couple welcomed a daughter by way of surrogacy earlier this 12 months. Asked the place she sees herself 5 years from now, Priyanka answered, “I’m sure all of us are thinking right now, you know, you take one turn and see the world going to destruction, you take another turn and you see the world going to destruction all over again. It’s a scary place to raise children and to think about a future.” She added that the ‘world is a bit fractured’, and he or she needs to contribute to therapeutic it along with her movies.
Priyanka Chopra has Citadel within the pipeline, together with Jee Le Zaraa and It’s All Coming Back To Me.
