Priyanka Chopra recalls piercing her belly button in the back of a cab: “I was that quintessential 90s girl” Priyanka Chopra recently reflected on her early journey from beauty pageants to global stardom. Speaking on the Going Rogue podcast, the actor looked back at her teenage years and how quickly life changed after entering the world of pageants. Priyanka first stepped into the spotlight when she participated in the Femina Miss India competition as a teenager. She later went on to win the prestigious Miss World 2000 title at the age of 18, a victory that transformed her life and launched her career in the entertainment industry. Recalling that phase, Priyanka said she had no modelling experience when she entered the pageant and the entire process felt overwhelming for someone so young. The sudden exposure and responsibilities forced her to mature quickly. Talking about her personal style during those years, Priyanka admitted that she was not particularly fashion-focused growing up. She said, “I wasn’t a fashion girl growing up. I was that quintessential 90s girl. ”She also shared a humorous memory about her love for belly button piercings at the time. Priyanka revealed that she once ended up piercing it again while travelling in a cab. “I loved my belly button ring. I had to get it re-pierced once in the back of a cab,” she recalled. Looking back, the actor described those years as a time of rapid change and learning. Winning Miss World at such a young age brought... #Priyanka_Chopra #Priyanka #Chopra #Chopra_recalls #Chopra_recently #Miss_World #global_stardom #recently_reflected #early_journey #beauty_pageants
Mahesh Babu, Priyanka Chopra Jonas starrer Varanasi becomes first Indian film shot In Antarctica; creates history on Ross Ice Shelf SS Rajamouli’s ambitious epic Varanasi starring Mahesh Babu and Priyanka Chopra Jonas is already making headlines for its scale. The film has now even achieved a historic milestone even before release. The upcoming action-adventure has become the first Indian film to be shot in Antarctica and only the fourth feature film in cinematic history to have sequences actually filmed on the frozen continent. Globally, only three feature films — South of Sanity (2012), The Odyssey (2016), and Virus (1980))— have previously shot scenes in Antarctica. Many films set in the region, such as The Thing and Eight Below, relied on visual effects or alternative locations, with no actual filming taking place on the continent. Meanwhile, Scott of the Antarctic featured pre-production landscape footage captured on location, but its principal photography began elsewhere. Adding to the achievement, Varanasi is reportedly the first film ever to cover the Ross Ice Shelf on screen, marking another cinematic first. The development positions the film among a rare category of global productions that have braved one of the harshest terrains on Earth for authentic storytelling. Directed by S. S. Rajamouli, who co-wrote the film with V. Vijayendra Prasad and S. S. Kanchi, Varanasi is mounted as a large-scale globetrotting adventure rooted in Indian cultural themes.

Priyanka Chopra, Varanasi and the question of a Telugu debut; was the Ram Charan starrer Thoofan forgotten? The Varanasi team’s widely circulated interview with Screen Rant features a rather awkward moment. When the interviewer asks Priyanka Chopra about her Telugu debut in Varanasi, the actor says she cannot remember when she last did a Telugu film. Mahesh Babu quickly steps in to add, “This is her first Telugu film. ”But that is not entirely accurate. Priyanka Chopra had, in fact, featured in the Telugu version of the Amitabh Bachchan classic Zanjeer in 2013. Titled Thoofan, the Ram Charan starrer had Priyanka playing his love interest in what was admittedly a small role. At the time, Chopra had expressed considerable gratitude to the makers of Thoofan, as opportunities in Bollywood were scarce for her then. A senior member of the Thoofan team views her current statement as a case of selective amnesia. “When we signed her for Thoofan, nobody in the Hindi film industry was willing to sign her. We ourselves felt the role was not substantial enough for a future global star like her. But she was eager and did the role happily. Now she seems to have forgotten her Telugu debut altogether,” the team member says. Sources suggest that the Varanasi team is keen to position the film as Priyanka Chopra’s Telugu debut. But should that come at the cost of factual accuracy?Also Read: Priyanka Chopra Jonas reveals her ONLY request for Varanasi was to dance: “Poor Mahesh Babu had to... #Priyanka_Chopra #Priyanka #Chopra #Telugu_debut #Telugu #Varanasi #Ram_Charan #Screen_Rant #Telugu_film #Varanasi_team
Priyanka Chopra Jonas cast as female lead in Hrithik Roshan’s Krrish 4 It is confirmed! Priyanka Chopra Jonas is back in Bollywood. Sources confirmed that she has been finalized for the female lead of the fourth segment of Hrithik Roshan’s Krrish. For those who came in late, Priyanka played the lead in the last two instalments of Krrish. She then headed westwards for stardom and marriage. She is back in Indian cinema with SS Rajamouli’s Varanasi, and now into Bollywood with Krrish 4. Her last Bollywood assignment was Shonali Bose’s The Sky Is Pink in 2019, after which she was finalized for Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Gangubai Kathiawadi. But the role slipped out of Priyanka’s fingers at the last minute and went to Alia Bhatt. This is where S S Rajamouli and Mahesh Babu stepped in. A source in the know revealed what happened next: “Unlike the A-listers in Bollywood, Rajamouli and Mahesh Babu had absolutely no problem working with Priyanka. They treated her like the cinema royalty that she is, offered her the money that she gets in the West, which is much more than what she ever got for any Hindi film, and expanded her role when she stepped in. ”A source very close to the project revealed that Priyanka has become very close to Mahesh Babu, his wife Namrata and their daughter Sitara. “This is Priyanka’s gateway into Bollywood via Telugu cinema. She has chosen to represent Indian cinema on a global platform through Rajamouli’s cinematic universe,” informed a hotshot Bollywood f... #Chopra_Jonas #Hrithik_Roshan #Priyanka_Chopra #Jonas_cast #Mahesh_Babu #Krrish #Priyanka #Bollywood #Chopra #Jonas
