Priyanka said that in 2008 she had a magazine cover which said 바카라finished바카라 on her face. 바카라I was panicked, my mum was panicked. She comes to me and goes, 바카라you are going to be 30 soon. That바카라s old in this industry. They want to work with 20- year olds so you need to think about a revenue stream if you are going to sustain yourself바카라,바카라 she shared.
Priyanka said that it was because of this conversation that she got into production.
Priyanka had six flops at the time and recalled how she felt during this phase, 바카라I was terrified when those six movies did not do well because I바카라m not a nepo baby. I didn바카라t have that kind of support which exists in a big way in Bollywood movies. They are multi-generational actors that come in and get multiple opportunities vs the ones that come in from outside. You don바카라t have your uncle making a new movie for you just because your last one tanked.바카라
Priyanka, who is currently in India to attane NMACC event, said that she is not the 바카라best schmoozer바카라 so was constantly worried how she would land her next big role. 바카라You have to get it and you have to like hustle for it. I바카라m not the best schmoozer. I was like 바카라I바카라m never going to be cast in a big movie ever again바카라 and that was one of the big reasons why I took on a movie on my shoulders, out of necessity, which turned out to be career defining for me,바카라 she recalled. It was during this time that Priyanka starred in Madhur Bhandarkar바카라s Fashion, which got her a National Film Award for Best Actress.
