She made her acting debut in 2002 in a Tamil film, Thamizhan. With little exposure and big dreams, she entered Bollywood in 2003 to work in Anil Sharma’s drama The Hero. The very year won her the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut for her supporting role in the romantic musical drama Andaaz.
Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra has since done wonders in the film industry with her versatility, hard work and of course, with the right measure of confidence.
The international sensation has expressed gratitude for being mentioned in Time Magazine’s prestigious list of 100 most influential people.
As wild a cat she may appear on screen, the 33-year-old Bajirao Mastani star is known as one of the most soft-spoken, sophisticated and diplomatic co-star in the industry. With such persistent nature and great career choices, Priyanka has embarked on exotic ventures like Quantico and Hollywood film Baywatch, which has made her an iconic actress worldwide. Actor-producer Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, who shares screen space with Priyanka in Baywatch, described the actress as a “star rising higher,” praised her “drive, ambition, self-respect, and she knows there’s no substitute for hard work.”
Johnson added: “We always quote the saying, ‘Wear your success like a T-shirt, not like a tuxedo,’ and she really does - as big a star as she is, as global as she is, as beautiful as she is, there’s this interesting quality of relatability.”
Priyanka Chopra has also featured on the cover of one of the six special editions of the magazine alongside Leonardo DiCaprio, Nicki Minaj, Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan, Christine Lagarde and Lin-Manuel Miranda.
On hearing the big news, unstoppable Priyanka tweeted: “What a way to start the day! #Time100’s list of achievers! Humbled, overwhelmed and feeling so blessed!”
