I was also told some years ago that I shouldn't 'waste my time' with female-centric films because the audience was not ready for it.

I always advocate to young women that if we don't do this for ourselves, no one else is going to. We have to have a voice.
Priyanka Chopra

I am a very private person. No one ever knows anything about me as I don't think it is necessary. I tell people as much as I want them to know about me.
Priyanka Chopra

There are so many incredible women on TV right now. Viola Davis, Kerry Washington, Ellen Pompeo. These are really incredible female leads that are on network TV. Hopefully, with what I do, and the generation of actors I'm working with, that'll make the lives of other girls coming in after me even better. I hope to aim for that.

I don't come from a film background. I haven't learned anything about films or film-making. But I have a thirst to know everything about my profession. I want to learn about cinematography, about editing, about music recordings, about post-production. So when people in the know talk, I willingly listen.

When I became Miss World, I couldn't believe I had won it. I used to sleep with my crown because I was scared someone would steal it. In a minute the world changed for me.

I'm not usually a follower of trends - I like to set them a lot more. I don't like things that people have done already, then it's no fun for me to do it.

There are cliques in Bollywood, and people stick together, but I have always tried to stick to my work. As an industry, Bollywood is very competitive, and I'm very competitive as a person, but I've never been a part of any clique, and I've always worked with all actors and directors, all camps.

Mary Kom is a woman who stood up alone in a male-dominated field and fought for her rights and what she believed in. Her story is an inspiration for every young person out there.

Strength of character is already written. What we bring, as an actor, is an almost 3D-ness to it.

Women are often told to have to be a certain way, to speak a certain way. The norm has been defined for many, many years, so it is very scary, especially for girls around the world who don't have the freedom and the opportunity to have a voice.

I know I'm flawed - but perfect is boring anyway! Flawed is good!
Priyanka Chopra
Image
We spend too much time as people thinking about what we don't have instead of actually making a change, and we just need to make that change now because we're being giving the opportunity.
Priyanka Chopra

I am a little old fashioned. I believe that in a relationship a man and a woman are never equal.

I got into the movies by accident. When I got an offer, I thought, 'Let's try this, too.' Everything in my life has happened by trial and error. I didn't even think I would win the Miss India title, so where's the question of thinking I'd come this far.
