Priyanka: I'm not delusional about my looks


Priyanka Chopra brand to mix it up with her movies and say it like it is. In a freewheeling chat, she speaks at breadth on what it takes to be a Hindi blur heroine.

With a National Accolade beneath her belt for Fashion, accolades for Kaminey, which had her move abroad from the burghal mileu, and an adventure- arranged television appearance advancing up, Priyanka Chopra can allow to sit pretty. Instead, at the time that we met, Chopra, angry out in a denim brim and blush top, a mop of curls and artificial hoops as accessories, was adamantine at assignment on the sets of Saat Khoon Maaf. With appropriate aplomb, she traces her chance through the blur industry’s catchy territory.

You attending absorbing with the curls and the hoops...

(Rolling her eyes) That’s my attending for the blur but I can’t brainstorm cutting the actuality from the abhorrent ’80s!

What was your acknowledgment to the National Award?

Madhur Bhandarkar kept cogent me from the alpha that I would acreage the accolade but I was absolutely abashed aback he alleged me at 4 ‘o’ alarm in the morning and bankrupt the news. Honestly the aboriginal few canicule I was floating. It was four in the morning (New York time) and I didn’t apperceive whom to tell, but afterwards aback I went on the sets, anybody was actuality actual affecting about it. It was absolutely cool.

Has the successes of Kaminey and Fashion afore that fabricated you fractional to arena abrupt roles?

I acquire consistently admired to mix it up a little bit. Afterwards Kaminey, I acquire a absolutely altered spectrum of movies. There is Anjaana Anjaani absolution on September 24 which is a commercial, adventuresome adulation account while Saat Khoon Maaf is a aphotic ball and again there is Don 2 and Silence. They are actual acceptable films.

You don’t affection in Dostana 2, while Abhishek Bachchan and John Abraham do...

I was never declared to be in Dostana 2. Bobby and I got affiliated and absolved into the sunset, so it’s not accessible for me to be in the sequel.

But you do affection in Saat Khoon Maaf post-Kaminey while Shahid doesn’t..

Guys kept advancing and activity through the shoot of the film. Vishal (Bhardwaj) and I are the abandoned constants (laughs).

You are additionally alive with a beginning set of co-stars, all twenty something, apparent superstars...so point out the aberration if any amid the altered generations.

Thankfully, I am at an age aback I can assignment with everyone. I can assignment with the earlier stars and the adolescent ones so it works actual able-bodied for me. The newer bearing of actors like Neil (Nitin Mukesh), Ranbir (Kapoor) and Shahid (Kapoor) are actual accessible to beginning things and acquire a beginning booty or angle and it is actual nice to see that. Also, because they are accouchement of bodies from the blur industry, they apperceive a lot about filmmaking and I absolutely don’t apperceive so much. I acquire on-the-set experience, actuality I acquire learnt on the job, while they acquire abstruse knowledge.

So acquaint us about the acquaint learnt.

Being accurate to appearance is actual important. Abundant as I abhorrence he ‘eighties, it is actual important that I attending the allotment ( in Saat Khoon Maaf). In Indian cinema,we accord so abundant accent to attractive acceptable that we balloon the situations these characters are in. Making the appearance absolute is the key to its success.

Is actuality an industry kid an advantage or a cantankerous to bear?

It is easier to get films aback you are an industry adolescent because anybody is an uncle or an aunty. For bodies who appear from outside, whether it is a guy or a girl, it is absolutely a lot added difficult. For me, it was absolutely destiny. I formed actual adamantine already I got in. I approved actual adamantine and bodies aloof admired what I did and there was no endlessly me. But it is a lot added difficult for best people. You are not taken that actively because you don’t backpack weight—that comes abandoned afterwards you acquire accepted yourself repeatedly. Of course, in their case, it’s aloof the opposite. Everybody knows the birth that you appear from and there are comparisons and that can be tough. We can go aback into abeyance but for them it’s their life.. So there are pros and cons on both sides.

Also, arresting with the burden of actual in an alien ambiance charge be difficult.

I assumption it was actual boxy on me because I had cipher to abatement aback on, cipher to acquaint me that my abutting blur will be a hit. I had to accord with abortion abandoned or actuality taken off a blur because someone’s advocacy had replaced me. I had to accord with all of it myself. I was actual bright about the way I capital to work. I was bright that I would go aback and abstraction if things didn’t assignment out. It was never like if it doesn’t happen, what will I do? That helped, because I gave it my all but didn’t apprehend any returns.

In the absence of a filmi lineage, how accessible are adorableness pageants in accepting you a foothold?

It absolutely gives you a platform, but in the aftermost 50 years, there acquire been abandoned bristles top actresses who acquire been adorableness celebration winners and that’s not much. It’s a acceptable belvedere —- a belvedere could be anything— a relative, a producer, a adorableness celebration or actuality in the account for any reason. You acquire to be acceptable at the job to accomplish it.

And how important are acceptable looks?

Not much. I am not the best attractive person. I am actual average-looking, so if I can be an extra and be advised attractive for it, anybody can. I am not delusional about my beauty. We acquire to be about appropriate attractive - you can’t be Fugly (Bursts into peals of laughter) and again it’s added about allure and personality. It doesn’t appear that you acquire absolute appearance and you are a abundant actor. The best important affair is to acquire a awning charisma. Even in academy and academy the best accepted guys are never the best attractive bodies – they are absorbing and flirty, so it’s consistently the personality that affairs added than looks.

What about the criticism that Hindi films are absolutely over- the -top with its song-and- ball formula?

I don’t anticipate they are removed from reality. You may watch a abrasive cine with accuracy but the account will consistently be told with affections and music. That’s the adorableness of our cinema and I don’t anticipate we should be contemptuous about it at all. For all those bodies who are contemptuous about our movies – amuse don’t watch them or amuse go to LA and accomplish films.

Our ability is about music and ball whether it is shaadi, sangeet, parties, anything... you acquire music. I feel actual sad that we don’t acquire dancing about the copse any longer. I accumulate cogent my admiral to amuse accord me one song! A beginning bearing of filmmakers is in abode ushering in the change, but whether it is accomplishments songs or adventuresome scenes, we consistently will acquire music in our cinemas.

And what is capital to actuality a acknowledged Hindi blur heroine?

The best important affair is that they should be able to act! Not everybody can be an actress. It is a actual difficult job. I didn’t anticipate so aback I started out. I was like, “I ball appealing able-bodied so I should administer fine.”

I anticipate you should be able to not be acquainted in advanced of the camera or people. Extreme altitude are allotment and bindle of the Hindi blur heroine’s job. You acquire to abrasion chiffon in Beginning York or fur coats in the Mumbai calefaction and be able to attending admirable through it. It is additionally important that you should apperceive the affections of an Indian ancestors and Indian ethics because that’s what makes our characters so real. Hindi blur heroines represent the India of today somehow and it is accordingly important to apperceive the abstraction of India.

How abutting are you to the beginning Indian reality?

I anticipate I angle for the ever-changing India of today. You can be annihilation if you put your apperception to it. We are affectionate but we additionally abhorrence assertive things about the country and are accommodating to booty it forward. I accumulate cogent my parents that you all broke it for us. My bearing is appreciative of actuality Indian.

Take us through your alteration from formulaic to cutting-edge...

At the outset, I was like a apprentice aloof afterward instructions. I came into my own some three years ago aback I started accomplishing films to which I could relate. So it’s not the alteration that has been difficult. I acquire consistently had a acumen to do a film. If I had to acquire a safe career I would not acquire done so abounding films. I acquire consistently pushed the envelope. I don’t like accomplishing movies abandoned with big actors and bristles songs, I would feel claustrophobic. It’s about demography a risk. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t.

A Fashion worked, Pyaar Impossible didn’t. Kaminey worked, Drona didn’t— you don’t apperceive what will assignment but if you don’t try, what’s the point? I appetite to be able to abruptness people. As an amateur you are acknowledged aback you move above who you are.

You are axis into absolutely the boxy activity charlatan - Don, Drona and Khatron Ke Khiladi..are you an adrenaline junkie?

I am anyhow this mad, chance person, so Drona was a lot of fun, about like actuality in a video game—running over trains etc. The affair is that you can’t be all girlie about it. You can’t be attractive scared. Alarming stunts attending fab but they are scary. I am adventuresome so I get pleasure accomplishing them.

For Khatron Ke Khiladi and Don 2 you charge backbone and stuff— so I am alive out to at atomic attending the part. KKK has adopted stunts that I am actual aflame about. It’s absolutely up my street. Thirteen boys and me – it’s activity to be a lot of fun.

You acquire been abounding in agreement of the cardinal of releases every year. Would you accede the one-film-a-year option?

I can’t do one blur a year! My god, I will lose the plot. What will I do for the blow of the time?

Does that acquire article to do with the actuality that actors are apprenticed to fulfil their arrangement agreement with the assembly houses? Are you accomplished with it?

As continued as you acquire artistic ascendancy -which I have, it is fine. Otherwise it could be a bit of both acceptable and bad. The director, the calligraphy the accomplished aggregation - I am accustomed to accomplish my accommodation based on these factors.

How clued in or clueless are accumulated houses about the alive of the blur industry?

Without demography any names, I would say that some corporates aloof carapace out the money with no abstraction of the creatives. But I ave formed with UTV and Ronnie is apparently one of the best amazing accumulated active I acquire formed with in agreement of his faculty of story. Maybe it comes from him actuality an amateur at one point of time, but it’s not aloof about the account he can sanction for your film. He absolutely has a say that makes sense.

Would you co-produce a film?

Never say never, but not yet. I anticipate the best crazy bodies in the apple become producers. I assumption someone’s got to do it, so acknowledge god, but it’s absolutely boxy and the best barren job. Everybody hates you and worse, everybody wants money from you!

Are you a director’s actor?

My administrator already told me that I had besmirched him for added heroines! Among the things I accede important aback accepting a blur is the director.

The breadth of the allotment is not important. I become a bacteria with directors. I am actually on the buzz with them 24/7. I acquire to affix with the director.

After that I accede the assembly house. Will they be able to assassinate the director’s vision? And again comes the money factor. I don’t do films for money. Of advance I appetite it but if there was a absolutely acceptable film, I appetite to do, money is not my priority. Money ke liye I do endorsements.

There acquire been letters about actresses because the advantage of administering films...have you anticipation of it?

Actors are now demography to administration afterwards extensive a assertive date in their careers, but it’s still too aboriginal for me. My better claiming at this point is Khatron Ke Khiladi on television. It’s a fun, adolescent show, and not the dotard kind.

You are the arch adult on Twitter. So acquire you been accusable of actuality a Twitter offender?

Shah Rukh is leading, but I don’t attempt with him. I cheep from the heart. I adulation Twitter. I don’t aloof cheep about my assignment - I cheep that I am activity blooming or whatever. I acquire never put pictures of abundance or my co-actors. Best of the times I am asked to do it.

Do you still advance a politically-correct attitude aback it comes to backbiting animadversion from colleagues?

I still don’t anticipate if someone’s fabricated a backbiting acknowledgment that I should stoop to their level. If you didn’t like my work, you acquire the appropriate to say it, but if you didn’t like my boyfriend, you don’t acquire the appropriate to say it! What I do in my claimed activity is absolutely my wish. I can acquire criticism but I don’t like awful account and opinions,and that is article I to which I still haven’t got used.
