Priyanka Chopra speaking to scribes, shared why she left Bollywood for Hollywood. She said “I don’t think I ever wanted to leave Bollywood. I felt limited for many reasons when I was working in Hindi films. I wanted to expand. I was kind of pushed into wanting to look for opportunities that would be exciting to me as an artiste. I landed up working in America, and now, I feel like, after almost 12 years or so, I am finding the momentum to pick and choose really amazing work, and that’s not easy.”
She continued “I love my Indian films. I am really happy to be back in Varanasi, India, again, and I would hate to have to choose between the two. I never have. I feel like I straddle both worlds, and I enjoy working in both industries. They are both different to work in, in many ways, just as cultures are, but now my brain can work in two different ways, so it’s really a unique, amazing, fun thing to be able to do.”
Priyanka is making her return to Indian film industry with Mahesh Babu's Varanasi directed by Rajamouli. Apart from it, Priyanka is starring in The Bluff directed by Frank E. Flowers. The Bluff which will be premired on Amazon Prime Video from 25 Feb will star Ismael Cruz Córdova, Safia Oakley-Green and Temuera Morrison in key roles.
