Parineeti Chopra tells Anuradha Choudhary why love makes her world go round
The last few years have been a rollercoaster ride for her in the tabloid pages. First, it was those extra kilos on her that were the talk of the town. Then her weight loss was the cause of much din. The fact that Parineeti Chopra didn’t sign a film for two years had the trade pundits in turmoil. Then there was her love life. The jury is still out on whether she’s seeing director Maneesh Sharma or not. Their on-and-off relationship has been the source of much speculation. On her part, she won’t admit to the relationship. At the same time, talk of a break-up with him has her in splits. Clearly, the gossip hasn’t been able to put a spin on her. Right now, she is focussed on her next outing with Ayushmann Khurrana, Meri Pyari Bindu. She may not have too many movies on hand at the moment but she knows where she’s headed. She’s steering the wheels of her career with much aplomb. Read on:
What keeps you going?
Okay, this may sound cheesy but it’s true - love keeps me going. Like when I’m in love or I’m getting love… it could be from a boyfriend, from my family, fans, when I’m at an event or it could be a hit film, where my work gets appreciated and I’m loved. When I know that someone’s there for me, it keeps me going. I’m a person who needs love all the time. I also love people passionately. So I give love all the time. There’s no materialistic thing in this world that can keep me going. The day I feel lonely or if I feel less loved, I’ll be depressed for sure.
Do you feel less loved ever?
