Want to give Hollywood an influx of Indian talent: Priyanka Chopra

Hindustan Times  

Priyanka Chopra Jonas, who has transitioned from a successful Bollywood career to make a mark in the American film and television industry over the past decade, said on Friday that she has a new dream: Flood Hollywood with Indian talent. “It is really my quest to try and influx Hollywood with Indian talent as much as I can.” In their session – the couple’s first joint interview with an Indian media outlet – the entertainment icons also stressed on the romance and magic of big-screen cinema, but insisted that streaming services were here to stay, especially because of the pandemic that has claimed 1.5 million lives worldwide. “I am excited to go back to the theatre, she knows I am a sucker for popcorn in the theatre so I’ll be looking forward to that.” Chopra Jonas agreed, adding that streaming services are already an essential part of the evolution of entertainment, especially because many people in India still have no access to television or fixed-line electricity and consume content on their phones, using internet data. “The fact that it can be done in a safe way…there’s an exuberance on set….it’s great to see that we are able to be back on the set.” When asked about her future plans, Chopra Jonas spoke about the White Tiger, an upcoming movie on Netflix based on Aravind Adiga’s Booker-winning 2008 novel. To this, Chopra Jonas burst into laughter and said, “I have become the sister since you married me… I wasn’t a sister before.”
