Controversies

  • After the gossipy tidbits about her supposed undertaking with Akshay Kumar, she and Akshay Kumar commonly chose not to cooperate post-Waqt.
  • After she shared her photo on the cover of Maxim India where the actor looked flawless, it went viral, not because of her beauty but her armpits that many thoughts looked photoshopped without any underarm wrinkles.
  • She had a twitter battle with comedian Tanmay Bhat after he mocked her accent just like many others on social media. “When I say @priyankachopra’s name in my head I now automatically pronounce it like “Priyaaaanka Chopruh”,” he tweeted.
  • On 1 June 2018, in an episode of the International TV show ‘Quantico,’ Priyanka played the role of an anti-terrorist officer who stopped a nuclear attack in Manhattan just a few days before an India-Pakistan summit. During her investigations, she finds a “Rudraksha” rosary, a religious Hindu symbol on the neck of a suspect to carry out the attack that was devised by Indian nationalists to frame Pakistan in a nuclear terror attack. This stirred controversy as most of the Indians slammed Priyanka for tarnishing the image of India globally. As a measure to control the outrage, she took to her Twitter handle and apologized.

FAQs

How did Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra meet?

The couple meets at an Oscars after-party—and Nick gets on one knee. Both stars attended the Vanity Fair Oscars Party separately, but when Jonas saw Priyanka headed in his direction, he got down on one knee “in front of a bunch of people” and said, “You’re real.

Who is richer Nick or Priyanka Chopra?

While both Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra are quite wealthy, it seems as though Mrs. Jonas might be worth slightly more than her husband. A recent report claims that Chopra’s net worth is around $28 million (combining her Bollywood movie earnings along with her Hollywood salary) while Jonas’s is around $25 million.

Is Priyanka Chopra’s career over in Bollywood?

Her successive outings in Hollywood seem timed. This was bound to happen in an industry where racism remains an undertone and not many from the Asian subcontinent have been able to penetrate the glass ceiling. It was amid this scenario that Priyanka was expected to create her own space. While no-one can deny her effort (and a subsequent blast of fame), ultimately, her choice of films and cancellation of her show brings her at crossroads. Bollywood has been unforgiving to actresses on the threshold of 40 and Priyanka is slowly inching towards that phase. In terms of age, she is only two years younger than Kareena Kapoor Khan, but while Kareena can take it easy in matters related to her career, the same cannot be said about the competitive Priyanka. She has now become a producer and has confined herself to producing only regional films, but it won’t be too far fetched to assume a feature film in Hindi is on its way under her own banner.

Which is Priyanka Chopra’s best film? Why?

Undoubtedly one of the most entertaining films of Priyanka Chopra’s career is Kaminey, this Indian caper features the actress alongside Shahid Kapoor and Amol Gupte in a tale set over one day involving drugs, corruption, racial injustice, and politics. Set against the backdrop of the Mumbai criminal underworld, this stylish, clever, and innovative film has sparks of genius that, through humor and violence, reminds of Tarantino or Scorsese. It’s one that sticks in the memory thanks to its energy and unique quirks. Chopra gets to play the beguiling Sweety, a political goon’s sister who is feisty, tough, and ready for a fight, refusing to be forced into marriage and determined to protect her lover whose baby she carries. Chopra said of the part, “You don’t get to work in a fantastic movie like Kaminey and play someone like Sweety every day”. She’s right.

How famous is Priyanka Chopra in America?

Priyanka is widely known in the USA. Quantico is a hit show and is watched by millions of people, She was a presenter at the Oscars, at Billboard music awards. She has appeared on some of the most-watched shows in the USA, Jimmy Fallon show, Jimmy Kimmel show, GMA, etc. She has been on the covers of the most famous magazines in the USA  like Complex, Instyle, Elle, Times magazine, and Flare.
