Every Film Of Priyanka A Milestone: Mannara Chopra

Darpan News Desk IANS, 29 Dec, 2015 01:42 PM
    "Zid" actress Mannara Chopra says every film of her star cousin Priyanka Chopra is a milestone.
     
     
    Asked about Priyanka's best films, Mannara said: "I really like a couple of her films. One is 'Barfi!' and second is 'Aitraaz', which was very different. Every film of hers is a milestone, so there are several other such films." 
     
    Would she like to steal any role from Priyanka?
     
    "I don't think I can steal any role from my sister, but I can learn a lot from her and I can adapt that learning in my forthcoming films," she said.
     
    Mannara did share that having a star sister leads to rise in people's expectations.
     
    "Bur there should be zeal inside you. If you don't have that zeal in you, then no support system can help you," she said.
     
    She said Priyanka's role in "Bajirao Mastani" impressed her.
     
    "I went for the trial of 'Bajirao Mastani' and it's not because she's my sister that I have to appreciate her. But I really loved her performance. From what she said in the film, I felt that she conveyed a lot more than that and I was impressed by that," she said.
     
    Priyanka will next be seen on the big screen as a police officer in "Jai Gangaajal".
     
    "I'm actually looking forward to 'Jai Gangaajal' because I had gone to Bhopal during the shooting and I have seen the sets and witnessed their shooting for about one and half weeks. So, I'm excited to see how those scenes which I experienced live, have come out on the big screen," she said.
