I'm Very Shy: Priyanka Chopra

Darpan News Desk IANS, 11 Jan, 2015 01:27 PM
  • I'm Very Shy: Priyanka Chopra
Priyanka Chopra has played bold characters onscreen, but says she is a shy person.
 
Ask Priyanka what's one thing she doesn't like being a star, she told IANS: "I think one thing that I don't like is for everything you have to pay a price." 
 
"People feel we have a luxurious life, we have huge cars but at the same time your life is not yours and that's the price you have to pay. I am a very shy and private person. I want my comfort zone. So, that gets difficult being a star," she added.
 
Recalling her stuggling phase in the film industry, she said: "Film industry has accepted me and there was a lot of struggle, but there are some amazing people who have accepted me on my merit."
 
The "Mary Kom" star, who made her Bollywood debut in 2003 with "The Hero: Love Story of a Spy", will soon turn producer with Madhur Bhandarkar's directorial "Madamji".
