Priyanka Chopra joined a host of Indian celebrities attending the ongoing Red Sea Film Festival. The actress on Wednesday, stunned in a breezy white dress that she paired with a silver bracelet and diamond jewellery. Like the many other Bollywood and Hollywood stars attending the festival, PeeCee sat down for a candid discussion on her films and career in the entertainment industry.
Chopra, who is currently making waves for her action-packed role as a spy in the Russo Brothers‘ directorial ‘Citadel Season 2‘, shared insights about her first foray into the action genre with the 2006 film ‘Don’.
“The first time I properly touched action was in the first Don,” she revealed, recalling her training for the role. “I remember learning Tai Chi for it. Farhan [Akhtar] wanted me to have this amazing grace as a Tai Chi fighter. I took classes for it because I really wanted to get it right.”The actress emphasised the importance of focusing on one’s craft rather than working on relationships within the industry. Reflecting on her time on the sets, she sid, “By the time I came to Don, I realised that the most important thing to focus on was my craft—not about your relationships with your director or co-actors. It’s about how you behave on set, but most importantly, what you do between action and cut.”
She credited her dedication to preparation and training as key to her success and said, “In order to be excellent and different with each character between action and cut, I needed to do homework. A lot of training went into the action sequences in Don, and I tasted blood a little.”
She quipped, “I look really good with a weapon in my hand, defending my country.”
Besides her role in ‘Citadel’, she will also be seen in the action-period film ‘The Bluff’. Set in the 1800s, it will see the star play a former pirate in the Caribbean who must protect her family from her past. She will also be seen in ‘Heads of State‘.
