New Delhi: After stealing the show with her empathic portrayal of Kashibai in Bajirao Mastani, Priyanka Chopra is back as a tough cop in “Jai Gangaajal” and the actress says she is consciously opting for roles in Bollywood that represent the modern Indian woman.
She has established herself as one of the best performers of her generation of actresses in Hindi cinema besides a blossoming career in Hollywood that saw her becoming the first female star from India to front a US television show in Quantico. She is now all set to make her Hollywood film debut as the main villain opposite Dwayne Johnson in Baywatch. Priyanka says she is consciously gravitating towards roles that have more to offer notwithstanding the length of the part.
“It was very important for me to play strong female characters in my films. I started doing that a long time ago, be it Kaminey where I had just eight scenes, Jhilmil in Barfi!, Gunday or Saat Khoon Maaf. PTI
