Prepare to walk on the path lit up with glamour, fame, and fandom as you enter the world of Priyanka Chopra, where her career speaks volumes about her journey from hard times to glorious times of success, each phase refining her into the actress we know today.

Priyanka entered Bollywood with determination and dreams that shone in her eyes. Her debut in Bollywood came in 2003 with the film The Hero: Love Story of a Spy.

In 2008, she earned her National Film Award for the splendid performance in Andaaz, securing critical acclaim for Fashion.

She grabbed every opportunity and played roles in numerous genres, spanning from dramatic, comedic, and historical roles. Her biopic on Indian boxer and Olympic gold medalist Mary Kom made the audience connect with the true moments.

Her next remarkable performance was in a drama film, Bajirao Mastani, where she portrayed a queen. The lively, realistic-looking sets took the audience back into the era and gave them a glimpse of the past. As Priyanka continued to perform in varied roles, she mastered her craft and broadened her appeal.

She went beyond the confined borders, making history as the first South Asian woman to play a lead role in Hollywood in Quantico, which ran between 2015–2018. She earned global recognition and paved the way for diverse casting.

Simultaneously, she launched Purple Pebble Pictures to elevate regional Indian cinema, striking a balance between stardom and social impact that few have achieved.

As a producer, she backed films like Ventilator and Paani, catalysing regional storytelling and garnering awards.

Looking to 2025, her slate includes an Amazon Prime thriller — starring and producing — slated for Q4 release, a Netflix biopic of an unsung Indian heroine due early 2025, and two Purple Pebble projects: a Marathi family drama and a documentary on girls’ education. Her entrepreneurial ventures also extend to wellness startups and an upcoming fashion capsule collection, testaments to her ability to innovate across industries.
