Priyanka Chopra, a seasoned veteran in the entertainment industry for over 25 years, has become a global sensation. Despite living in Los Angeles with her family, she always makes time to visit her mother, Madhu Chopra, and brother, Siddharth Chopra, in India. Recently, the internationally acclaimed star flew to Mumbai to partake in Siddharth’s wedding celebrations in August 2024.
During an engaging conversation on The Ranveer Show in 2022, Priyanka Chopra was asked about attending family events amidst her immense fame. Without hesitation, she responded with a touch of sass, emphasizing the importance of family in her life. She expressed, “So what if I’m a famous face? Does that mean I won’t dance at my brother’s wedding? Of course not! My family, my cousins, my brothers…they mean everything to me. Fame is just a side effect of my work, it doesn’t define who I am. It’s not my job.”
Priyanka Chopra went on to clarify that she doesn’t consider being famous as her occupation. She acknowledged that fame inevitably accompanies her profession, but it doesn’t alter her core values. She likened celebrities to ordinary individuals, emphasizing that behind the glamorous billboards and red carpets, they are just regular people who enjoy simple pleasures like relishing a good parantha with achaar and reveling in the joy of dancing at family celebrations.
Highlighting the commonality between celebrities and the general public, Priyanka emphasized that their desires and aspirations are fundamentally the same. Not long ago, she graced the engagement and hastakshar ceremony of her brother Siddharth Chopra and his fiance, actress Neelam Upadhyaya, further solidifying her commitment to family bonds.
In a previous interview with Vogue India, Priyanka Chopra emphasized the importance of professionalism and punctuality in her work ethic. She stressed the significance of being prepared and considerate towards the crew members on set, showcasing her dedication and respect for the craft.
Currently engrossed in filming the American spy action series, Citadel: Season 2, Priyanka Chopra also has exciting projects like The Bluff and Heads of State on the horizon, promising audiences more captivating performances to look forward to.
