Priyanka Chopra Joins Heidi Klum's 'Project Runway' Season 15

Darpan News Desk IANS, 09 Aug, 2016 01:30 PM
    Indian actress Priyanka Chopra's international portfolio seems to be turning stronger by the day. After TV show "Quantico" and Hollywood film "Baywatch", she is set to be seen as a guest judge for season 15 of American TV series "Project Runway", hosted by supermodel Heidi Klum.
     
    Priyanka will join the series as one of the few guest judges on the show, which will air from September. The show focuses on budding designers who are given an opportunity to create a collection for New York Fashion Week.
     
    Priyanka took to Instagram, where she shared a photograph of herself along with Klum as well as the show's other judges Nina Garcia, Zac Posen and Georgina Chapman. 
     
    "Namaste!! On 'Project Runway'. Coming soon. 'Project Runway' Season 15, September 15th! Nina Garcia, Zac Posen, Heidi Klum, Georgina Chapman," Priyanka captioned the image.
     
    The former Miss World made inroads into foreign showbiz first when she launched her international single "In my city", a track she collaborated for with Will.i.am. That set the stage for her to do bigger things in the West.
     
    For "Quantico", which stars her in the lead role as FBI agent Alex Parish, she won the Favourite Actress in a New TV series award at the People's Choice Awards 2016 earlier this year.
     
    That also opened the doors to Hollywood for Priyanka, who landed a negative role in "Baywatch" -- the big screen version of the globally popular TV series -- starring Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron.
