The gorgeous Priyanka Chopra never flinches from doing what she wants to be — the best version of herself.
On most counts , Priyanka Chopra is India’s most successful female actor just now. Her amazing versatility and finesse have taken her from Bollywood superstar to a globally known actor, thanks to her breakthrough role in the popular American serial, Quantico, and her stint as a singer with two singles to her credit. No wonder she exudes self confidence.
Over the past year alone Priyanka’s stars have soared in what can only be considered the stuff of dreams by anyone else.
How many 33-year-olds do we know who have deserved the kind of recognition in entertainment that she has garnered? For starters there was the People’s Choice Award 2016, for Favourite Actress in a New TV Series. We were just about getting used to having her face gaze out at us from billboards and in subways in the United States when she had us sit up again, becoming the first ever Indian to be invited to present an award at the prestigious Academy Awards. And oh, did we forget to mention that she was also awarded a Padma Shri this year? How much more charmed can a woman’s life get?
