Priyanka Chopra speaks about her "tumultuous" journey in Bollywood…

[@wannabedatanerd]

Those people who are saying it is a publicity stunt, dude she is already famous. She doesn’t need to be more famous.😂😂😂

[@mewtubeofficial]

Fame has to be maintained by being in the news.

[@wannabedatanerd]

@@mewtubeofficial when is she not in news?, media follows her all day.

[@mewtubeofficial]

@@wannabedatanerd Thats not how it works. PR teams decide where to appear, what to wear, what to say when. What will trend on the internet.

[@wannabedatanerd]

@@mewtubeofficial I agree but she herself said that this was the right time for her to talk about it… what if she said this when she started of at Hollywood, wouldn’t people blame her for playing victim to get work then?? Even if it was suggested by her PR team then also it was fine… had she said this earlier, her Bollywood career had had ended but now she didn’t care about Bollywood. She has raised to that point to talk about it.

She ain't openly talking about it . Proves how toxic film industry is!!

[@mehboobaakhtar5332]

That's because the industry is made of toxic actor's like her only. But she has just made her way through American's heart by lying and over exaggerating her "mean white girls bullied me in school" stories, Because that's State's favourite food in this era.

[@missyquill5709]

No it proves she has nothing substantial to say. First she comes out and accuses SRK of having an affair with her to score cheap points, then when the industry starts boycotting her for her lies, she runs off to Hollywood and now she's crying nepotism and toxic work environment. The film industry is far far far from perfect but Priyangka is not it's victim. She manipulated the industry to get what she wanted - a launching pad. And now she has all she worked for. I would admire her a lot more if she just owned up to her unbridled ambition and admitted that she would use anyone to get what she wanted.

Never ask someone this question. Speaking about it years later will not change the fact that it happened, she will speak about it when she is comfortable. It's for our personal relationships as well, when somebody opens up don't ask questions like why now, or why didn't u do something about it then, why did u tolerate it? And to think of it this lady wasn't the person she spoke to, what right does she have to question her?? Jealous she didn't say that on your forum?

[@praveenasharma8207]

[@manishapatnaik6677]

Why can't she speak about it now?? She can speak about her life experiences as and when she wants.. We all too go through situations in life where we put up with toxicity or humiliation but choose to keep quiet for our own vulnerability but that doesn't mean we can't speak about that phase of life .. We can whenever we feel confident or safe. And it's ok! There's no right time to speak your truth. Anytime you speak your truth is the right time!

Same happened with Chinnmayi’s case and people were back thrashing her saying why she didn’t talk abt it or complain abt it earlier.. One must put themselves in another person’s shoes before they can comment or talk.., write abt any other person’s life..

[@fazz3606]

She is so confident

[@lillymanta7642]

I feel that it is great that she is bringing it to light now. Why not speak about it it is a hurt that she went through. She can talk about it whenever she wants to if it takes 30 years for her to get the strength to talk about it, it still doesn’t matter. She still has the right to speak her truth. Maybe right now she hasn’t opened up fully she just gave a little glimpse of what it was like, but maybe she will write a book or she will actually have interviews. And that is OK all the truth and nonsense of not only Bollywood, but any kind of industry that preys on people needs to be brought to light. Encourage people to come forward and say their mind. I wish SSR would’ve actually come forward and said what was actually happening. I feel that his death paved the way for people to actually come out and speak. His death went through the roots of Bollywood and took out. Every nasty lies. They had buried still more to unravel, but I believe that truth will set you free. I also feel Rajkumar Rao knows a lot of things also, then slowly when he comes stronger I feel that he will share some truth also. But if talking about your truth is giving you publicity, so be it what’s wrong in that if that gives her publicity, so what. All good She is very wealthy and she has a husband who is very influential so if she can actually make a change for regular people to come into bollywood and actually get a chance to act then I think it is amazing for our kids and their kids to pave the way for them, don’t always think negative and try to save your Bollywood Gods. There is a real God is watching over everything and he will not keep his eyes closed when all this horrible things happen to good people. change your perspective. Stop idealizing actors and their wealthy families.

Priyanka Chopra has never been out from Bollywood or sidelined. She has always given hits till her marriage with Nick Jonas. She worked in Mary Kom in 2014, at the age of 32, worked in Gunday at the age of 33, Baji Rao Mastani at the age of 33. Once Salman Khan said in an interview that he had once approached Priyanka Chopra for Bharat movie. But she declined because of her wedding dates...
