Slowly and steadily, she’s been climbing up the Bollywood ladder. From films to big endorsements, Priyanka Chopra is doing it all. Undeterred by the controversy surrounding her professional life, she insists that such issues are a part and parcel of the job and she takes them with a pinch of salt. “I’m just 23 and it’s been only three years since I have joined the industry. I have a lot to do. And a lot more to show the world. There is so much more to learn about films and filmmaking. What’s the hurry? There are so many people who believe in me right now. I just hope I don’t let them down,” says the pretty actor.

In spite of having made the right professional choices, Priyanka candidly admits that her heart still skips a beat when signing on any dotted line. “Every film is a question mark,” she confesses. “Every film is a judgment of my sensibilities, my intelligence and my foresight. Every time I sign on the dotted line, I wonder whether that was the right decision.”

A humbling thought that, considering her fans believe that she has already proven herself commercially. “But I haven’t proven myself as yet,” she says rather modestly. Like every actor wanting to prove their acting mettle, does she also get the urge to take the plunge into offbeat cinema? “I love the kind of cinema I’m doing right now, but I’m not averse to the idea of doing offbeat cinema,” Priyanka admits. “A great role in a good film is always welcome.”

Considering quite a few actors were eyeing the West, which Hollywood actor would Priyanka like to be paired with? “Marlon Brando! But unfortunately he’s no more. He was the epitome of excellent acting combined with great looks,” she gushes.

So, being one of the busiest actors in Bollywood today, does family take a backseat, or do the pressures ‘to get hitched’ get to her? “Oh god, not so soon! Door door tak bhi koi nazar nahin aata,” she exclaims negating the very thought. “And though I’m busy, my family is my priority. They travel with me everywhere. Mom usually accompanies me. Also, my brother and I play video games whenever we get together, and I love to have dinner with them. Touchwood, life is great!”
