Priyanka Chopra, a well-known Bollywood actress and global icon, has recently caused a stir in the entertainment industry with a revealing interview.In this interview with a popular magazine, she bravely shared an unsettling incident from her early days in the film industry.
Around 2002-2003, when Priyanka was a newcomer, she was cast in a role as an undercover agent.During the filming of a scene where she was supposed to seduce a character, a director she had never met before made an inappropriate request.
Instead of allowing her to layer up for the scene, the director insisted on seeing her underwear, justifying it by saying that the audience would be interested in watching the movie for that reason.
This incident deeply affected Priyanka, as it made her feel dehumanized and reduced to her physical appearance.
She expressed how it made her feel like her worth as an artist and her contributions were unimportant, and that she was only valued for how she could be objectified.
The incident was so disturbing to Priyanka that she took a stand against it.She walked off the set of the film and even reimbursed the production for the expenses incurred during the two days of filming.This act of protest showed her strong character and unwillingness to tolerate such behavior.
In a separate incident, Priyanka Chopra faced derogatory comments about her personal life on a podcast hosted by Alexandra Cooper.The podcast host had previously insulted Priyanka and her relationship with Nick Jonas, calling them the “most annoying couple.” The comments made on the podcast were offensive and targeted both Priyanka and Nick, including inappropriate remarks about their sexual lives.
Moving on to Priyanka’s professional endeavors, she recently starred in a romantic comedy-drama called “Love Again” alongside Sam Heughan.The film, written and directed by James C.Strouse, is an English-language remake of a German movie called “SMS für Dich,” which was based on a novel by Sofie Cramer.“Love Again” premiered in the United States on May 5, 2023, and received mixed reviews from critics.
