Global beauty Priyanka Chopra is creating a name for herself and is excelling in Hollywood as well. After ruling the roost in Bollywood for a good time, she started getting offers from Hollywood and she is now settled in America. The ‘Quantico’ actress is happily married to pop star Nick Jonas and they have a baby together. She recently arrived with a high-budget Hollywood series ‘Citadel’ which is premiering on Amazon Prime Video.
Her romantic comedy ‘Love Again’ is coming out soon and the premieres were done recently. Apart from that, she was at the MET Gala recently and is known for her red carpet events and many other social activities. She keeps the buzz alive at all times and recently, she opened up about her father Akash Chopra and her childhood.
She said, “My dad was super paranoid because he sent to America a 12-year-old with braids and trying to be cool, so I got my hair blown out that was the only thing I had ever done, come back after all of these American hormones and the food. I come back a little bit more woman than my dad would have anticipated at 16. When I went back to India and I was in this small town and I was peacocking like I peacocked in my American high school I had boys follow me home. One of them jumped into my balcony at night. That’s why my dad was like, ‘F*** this, bars, all your jeans are confiscated, you are going to wear Indian suits, nothing happening. I had a driver drive me everywhere, he was freaked out. I get it, but then my career happened. I feel so bad for my dad.”
Talking about the time when a guy was outside her bedroom, she revealed, “I didn’t understand the gravity of it. I thought I was invincible. I think about it now. How did I get away with this s*** that I did? But it was this invincible thing of, ‘I can get away with anything’. But that day when somebody was outside my bedroom. He was outside my balcony and I saw him and I screamed and went to my dad. My dad came, he jumped and he went away. The next day my dad was like, ‘You need rules’. I was so arrogant and vain in those two years of my life. Especially when I came back to India. Suddenly there was this equity on me which I didn’t have in American high school where the girls were bullying me.”
