Priyanka Chopra is surely one of the most successful actresses of Bollywood. And now, she is making a mark in the West as well. The actress says that she wants a similar position in Hollywood like she has in Bollywood.
Priyanka said, "I am very strict about the fact that I have a certain position in Hindi film industry and that does not get compromised. I will never do that wherever I work in the world. The kind of position I have in Hindi cinema, I want something similar in my Hollywood projects too. Alex (‘Quantico’) is not a wallflower. She is the lead character while in ‘Baywatch’, I play the main villain."
"When your work gets accepted, you feel really nice. It is very important. I felt really nice when during Halloween many American's dressed like Alex. When I am at the airport, people stop me to ask 'Who is the terrorist? What is going to happen next?'. These small things show that the character has been accepted and it resonates with the audience. I was very nervous when I began because there was no such example for me. I did not know how American or global audience will respond to an Indian actor carrying the show on her shoulders. Indian actors have played important roles in the past in Hollywood but here I was carrying forward the show. I knew that if it does not turn out well, it will be a big mess and I will be made fun off."
