While Priynaka Chopra continues to become popular in the West and an international star, the actor makes a conscious effort to remain rooted to her identity as an Indian. In a recent interview with an international magazine, that chose Priyanka and Nick as their first Best Dressed Couple, Priyanka said some of her most precious gifts are the
magalsutra and a diamond ring that her late father had gifted her.
Priyanka adds that “My mangalsutra. In an Indian wedding, it’s a necklace the groom ties around the bride’s neck. And a diamond ring my dad gave me.” She also added that she always carried gold coins, given to her by her dad, as her good luck charms. She also said how she was the happiest when she wore her two wedding dresses as it “was like a dream—they were exactly what I envisioned wearing on my wedding day.”
When asked what she loved and hated in the whole world of fashion, Priyanka added that she vehemently hates tight clothes and bandage dresses, but overuses her sunglasses. She added that Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe were her favourites.
On the work front, Priyanka will soon be in Bollywood film, ‘The Sky Is Pink.’ The film also stars Farhan Akhtar and Zaira Wasim. It chronicles the love story of a couple, seen through the eyes of their spunky teenaged daughter who is diagnosed with a terminal illness.
Priyanka is also doing a film with Hollywood actor Mindy Kaling in a new film, based around a big fat Indian wedding.
