Chopra gained wider recognition for portraying a range of characters in the films Kaminey (2009), 7 Khoon Maaf (2011), Barfi! (2012), Mary Kom (2014), and Bajirao Mastani (2015).

Priyanka Chopra was born on 18 July 1982 in Jamshedpur, Bihar (present-day Jharkhand), to Ashok and Madhu Chopra, both physicians in the Indian Army.[4][5] Her father was a Punjabi Hindu from Ambala.[6][7] Her mother, from Jharkhand, is the eldest daughter of Madhu Jyotsna Akhouri, a former member of Bihar Legislative Assembly, and Dr. Manohar Kishan Akhouri, a former Congress veteran.[8][9] Her late maternal grandmother was a practicing Jacobite Syrian Christian originally named Mary John,[10] belonging to the Kavalappara family of Kumarakom, Kottayam district, Kerala before her marriage.[11][12][13][14][15][16] Chopra has a brother, Siddharth, who is seven years her junior[17] and actresses Parineeti Chopra, Meera Chopra and Mannara Chopra are her cousins.[18] Due to her parents' occupations the family relocated to a number of places in India, including Delhi, Chandigarh, Ambala, Ladakh, Lucknow, Bareilly, and Pune.[19] Among the schools she attended were La Martiniere Girls' School in Lucknow[20] and St. Maria Goretti College in Bareilly.[21][22] In an interview published in Daily News and Analysis, Chopra said that she did not mind travelling regularly and changing schools; she welcomed it as a new experience and a way to discover India's multicultural society.[23] Among the many places that she lived, Chopra has fond memories as a child of playing in the valleys of Leh, in the cold northwestern Indian desert region of Jammu and Kashmir. She has said, 'I think I was in Class 4 when I was in Leh. My brother was just born. My dad was in the army and was posted there. I stayed in Leh for a year and my memories of that place are tremendous ... We were all army kids there. We weren't living in houses, we were in bunkers in the valley and there was a stupa right on top of a hill which used to overlook our valley. We used to race up to the top of the stupa'.[24] She now considers Bareilly her home town, and maintains strong connections there.[25]

At the age of thirteen, Chopra moved to the United States to study, living with her aunt, and attending schools in Newton, Massachusetts, and Cedar Rapids, Iowa, after a stop in Queens, New York, as her aunt's family also moved frequently.[26][27] While in Massachusetts, she participated in several theatre productions and studied Western classical music, choral singing and Kathak dance.[28] During her teenage years in the United States, Chopra sometimes faced racial issues and was bullied for being Indian by an African-American classmate.[29][30] She has said, 'I was a gawky kid, had low self-esteem, came from a modest middle-class background, had white marks on my legs ... But I was damn hard working. Today, my legs sell 12 brands.'[30]

Acting career

Career beginnings and breakthrough (2002–2004)

After winning Miss India World, Chopra was cast as the female lead in Abbas-Mustan's romantic thriller Humraaz (2002), in which she was to make her film debut.[41] However, this fell through for various reasons: she stated the production conflicted with her schedule, while the producers said they re-cast because Chopra took on various other commitments.[42][43] Her screen debut occurred in the 2002 Tamil film Thamizhan as the love interest of the protagonist, played by Vijay. A review published in The Hindu was appreciative of the film for its wit and dialogue, however it felt that Chopra's role was limited from an acting viewpoint.[44]

In 2003, Chopra made her Bollywood film debut as the second female lead opposite Sunny Deol and Preity Zinta in Anil Sharma's The Hero: Love Story of a Spy.[5] Set against the backdrop of the Indian Army in Kashmir, the film tells the story of an agent and his fight against terrorism. The Hero was one of the highest-grossing Bollywood films that year, but received mixed reviews from critics.[45][46]Derek Elley from Variety said that 'mega-looker Chopra makes a solid screen debut.'[47] Later that year she appeared in Raj Kanwar's box-office success Andaaz with Akshay Kumar, again sharing the female lead (this time with the debuting Lara Dutta).[45] Chopra played a vivacious young girl who falls in love with Kumar's character. The Hindustan Times noted the glamour that she brought to the role;[5] Kunal Shah of Sify praised her performance and stated she had 'all the qualities to be a star.'[48] Her performance earned her the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut (along with Dutta) and a nomination for the Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actress.[49]

Chopra's first three releases in 2004—Plan, Kismat, and Asambhav—performed poorly at the box office.[50] Chopra was typically cast during this earlier period as a 'glamour quotient', in roles that were considered 'forgettable' by film critic Joginder Tuteja.[50][51] Later that year she starred with Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar in David Dhawan's romantic comedy Mujhse Shaadi Karogi, which became the third-highest-grossing film of the year in India and emerged as a commercial success.[52]

In late 2004, she starred opposite Kumar and Kareena Kapoor in Abbas-Mustan's thriller Aitraaz. Chopra considers her first role as an antagonist, portraying Soniya Roy, an ambitious woman who accuses her employee of sexual harassment, as the 'biggest learning experience of her career.'[32] The film was a critical and commercial success, and Chopra's performance received critical acclaim.[51][53] Author Rini Bhattacharya credited her with bringing back the seductress to the silver screen.[54][55] The Hindustan Times cited it as the film that changed her career significantly.[5] A reviewer writing for the BBC said, 'Aitraaz is Priyanka Chopra's film. As the deliciously wicked, gold digging, scheming seductress, she chews up every scene she is in with her magnetic screen presence.'[56] She won a Filmfare Award for Best Performance in a Negative Role, becoming the second and final actress to win the award after Kajol (the category was discontinued in 2008).[5] Chopra also received a nomination for the Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actress, and the Producers Guild Film Award for Best Actress in a Supporting Role.[49]

Rise to prominence (2005–2006)

In 2005, Chopra appeared in six films. Her first two releases, the action thrillers Blackmail and Karam, were commercially unsuccessful.[57] Shilpa Bharatan-Iyer of Rediff.com considered Blackmail to be a very predictable film and believed that her role as a police commissioner's wife was very limited from an acting point of view.[58] Her performance in Karam was better received, Subhash K. Jha wrote that Chopra 'with her poised interpretation of high drama, flies high creating a character whose vulnerability and beauty are endorsed by both the inner and outer worlds created for her character.'[59] Later that year Chopra played the wife of Akshay Kumar in Vipul Amrutlal Shah's family drama Waqt: The Race Against Time, the story of a small businessman (played by Amitabh Bachchan) who, hiding his illness, wants to teach his irresponsible son some lessons before he dies. During production, Chopra revisited Leh, a favourite childhood haunt, for the shooting of the song 'Subah Hogi'.[24] She suffered an accident during the filming for the song 'Do Me A Favour Let's Play Holi' when she electrocuted herself, spending a day recovering in hospital.[60] The film was well received by critics, and was a commercial success.[57][61]

She next starred opposite Arjun Rampal in the romantic mystery thriller Yakeen, portraying the role of a possessive lover. Critical reaction towards the film was mixed, but her performance received praise. Taran Adarsh wrote that Chopra 'is bound to win laurels yet again [...] the actor is emerging as one of the finest talents in these fast-changing times'.[62] Her next release was Suneel Darshan's romance Barsaat, co-starring Bobby Deol and Bipasha Basu. The film was a critical and commercial failure in India but fared better in the overseas market.[57][63] Chopra's performance received mixed reviews, with Bollywood Hungama describing it as 'mechanical'.[64] However, Rediff.com considered Chopra to be an 'epitome of calm intelligence, who underplayed her role to perfection'.[65] Later that year, Rohan Sippy cast her with Abhishek Bachchan, Ritesh Deshmukh and Nana Patekar in the comedy Bluffmaster! Chopra played independent working woman Simran Saxena, Bachchan's love interest. The film proved to be a box-office success.[57]

After starting 2006 with special appearances in three films, Chopra starred in Rakesh Roshan's superhero film Krrish (a sequel to the 2003 science-fiction film Koi... Mil Gaya). Co-starring with Hrithik Roshan, Rekha and Naseeruddin Shah, Chopra played a young television journalist who schemes to take advantage of an innocent young man with remarkable physical abilities, but eventually falls in love with him. The film was the second-highest-grossing film of the year in India and grossed over ₹1.17 billion (US$17 million) worldwide attaining a blockbuster status.[66] Her next film was Dharmesh Darshan's romantic comedy Aap Ki Khatir, co-starring Akshaye Khanna, Ameesha Patel and Dino Morea. Neither the film nor Chopra's performance were well received.[67] Sukanya Verma of Rediff.com stated that Chopra's portrayal of Anu was 'erratically sketched' and that her character was never consistent: 'first flaky, then cool, and later, sensitive'.[68]

Chopra's final release of 2006 was Farhan Akhtar's action-thriller Don (a remake of the 1978 film of the same name), with Shah Rukh Khan. Chopra portrayed Roma (played by Zeenat Aman in the original film), who joins the underworld to avenge Don for killing her brother. Chopra received martial-arts training for her role in the movie, and performed her own stunts.[69] The film was declared a box-office success in India and overseas, with revenues of ₹1.05 billion (US$15 million).[52] Raja Sen of Rediff.com found Chopra to be film's 'big surprise'; he believed that Chopra convincingly portrayed Roma, 'looking every bit the competent woman of action' and wrote 'This is an actress willing to push herself, and has definite potential for screen magic. Not to mention a great smile.'[70]

Setbacks and resurgence (2007–2008)

In 2007, Chopra had two leading roles. Her first film was Nikhil Advani's Salaam-e-Ishq: A Tribute to Love, a romantic comedy in six chapters with an ensemble cast. She was featured opposite Salman Khan in the first chapter as Kamini, an item girl and aspiring actress who tries to land the lead role in a Karan Johar film with a publicity gimmick.[71] Film critic Sukanya Verma praised her flair for comedy, especially her impressions of Meena Kumari, Nargis and Madhubala.[72] Both Salaam-e-Ishq: A Tribute to Love and her next film, Big Brother, proved unsuccessful at the domestic box office.[67]

In 2008, Chopra starred opposite Harman Baweja in his father'sLove Story 2050. Chopra played a double role, so she coloured her hair twice; once red to portray the girl from the future and then black for the girl of the past.[73] Her performance was poorly received; Rajeev Masand was unimpressed with Chopra's chemistry with her co-star, remarking that her character 'fails to inspire either affection or sympathy'.[74] She next appeared in the comedy God Tussi Great Ho, portraying a TV anchor opposite Salman Khan, Sohail Khan and Amitabh Bachchan.[75][76] Chopra next starred as a kindergarten teacher in Chamku opposite Bobby Deol and Irrfan Khan, and played the role of Sonia in Goldie Behl's fantasy superhero film Drona opposite Abhishek Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan. Drona, widely criticised for its extensive use of special effects, marked Chopra's sixth film in succession which had failed at both the box-office and critically, although Sukanya Verma of Rediff.com stated that Chopra displayed convincing action heroine skills.[67][77] Critics generally perceived at this time that her career was over.[67]

The string of poorly received films ended when Chopra starred in Madhur Bhandarkar's Fashion, a drama about the Indian fashion industry which followed the lives and careers of several fashion models. She portrayed the ambitious supermodel Meghna Mathur, a role which she initially thought was out of her depth, but after six months' consideration she accepted the role, inspired by Bhandarkar's confidence in her.[78] For the role, Chopra had to gain 6 kilograms (13 lb) and steadily shed the weight during the production as the character progressed in the film. Both the film and her performance received critical acclaim, becoming a major turning point in her career.[51] Rajeev Masand wrote, 'Priyanka Chopra turns in a respectable performance, one that will inevitably go down as her best.'[79] For her performance, she won several awards, including the National Film Award for Best Actress, the Filmfare Award for Best Actress, the IIFA Award for Best Actress, the Screen Award for Best Actress, the Stardust Award for Actor of the Year - Female (with Dostana) and the Producers Guild Film Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role.[49][80][81] With a worldwide revenue of ₹600 million (US$9 million), Fashion emerged as a commercial success, and was listed by Subhash K. Jha as one of the best films of the decade with women protagonists.[82][83] It was noted for being commercially successful despite being a women-centric film with no male lead.[84] She said in retrospect, 'I think actually Fashion kick started ... the process of female dominated films. Today you have so many other films which have done well with female leads.'[32]

Chopra's final film of the year was Tarun Mansukhani's romantic comedy Dostana, with Abhishek Bachchan and John Abraham. Set in Miami, the film tells the story of a friendship between her character and two men who pretend to be gay to share an apartment with her. Chopra played a stylish young fashion-magazine editor Neha, who is trying to deal with professional pressures in her life. Produced by Dharma Productions, the film was a financial success with worldwide revenues of over ₹860 million (US$12 million).[52] Chopra's performance and look in the film were praised.[85][86]

Experiment with unconventional roles (2009–2011)

In 2009, Chopra played a feisty Marathi woman named Sweety in Vishal Bhardwaj's caper thriller Kaminey (co-starring Shahid Kapoor), about twin brothers and the journey in their life linked with the underworld. The film received critical acclaim and became successful at the box-office with the worldwide gross earnings of ₹710 million (US$10 million).[52][85]Nikhat Kazmi of The Times of India thought that Chopra's role completely reinvented her, and Rajeev Masand wrote: 'Springing a delightful surprise in a smaller part is [Chopra], who sprinkles her lines with a smattering of fluent Marathi and emerges one of the film's most lovable characters.'[87][88] Raja Sen of Rediff.com named Chopra's performance as the best by an actress that year.[89] Her role earned her several awards and nominations, including a second consecutive Producers Guild Film Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role after Fashion and Best Actress nominations at the Filmfare, Screen and IIFA awards.[90][91]

Chopra subsequently appeared in Ashutosh Gowariker's romantic comedy What's Your Raashee?, based on the novel Kimball Ravenswood by Madhu Rye. The film depicts the story of a US-based Gujrati NRI in search of his soulmate among 12 girls (all played by Chopra) associated with the 12 zodiac signs. She received the Screen Best Actress Award nomination for her performance in the film.[92] She was also considered for inclusion in the Guinness World Records book for being the first film actress to portray 12 distinct characters in one film.[93] Chopra's heavy workload—filming for several productions, travelling for endorsements and performing at live shows (including the Miss India pageant)—took its toll; she fainted during filming, and was admitted to hospital.[94]

In 2010, Chopra starred with Uday Chopra in Jugal Hansraj's unremarkable romantic comedy Pyaar Impossible! as Alisha, a beautiful college girl (and later a working mother) who falls in love with a nerdy boy. Later that year, she co-starred with Ranbir Kapoor in Siddharth Anand's romantic comedy Anjaana Anjaani. The film, set in New York and Las Vegas, follows the story of two strangers, both trying to commit suicide, who eventually fall in love with each other. The film was a moderate commercial success, and received mixed reviews from critics.[95][96][97]

She starred as a femme fatale in her first film of 2011, Vishal Bhardwaj's black comedy 7 Khoon Maaf. Based on the short story 'Susanna's Seven Husbands' by Ruskin Bond, 7 Khoon Maaf centers on Susanna Anna-Marie Johannes, an Anglo-Indian woman (played by Chopra) who murders her seven husbands in an unending quest for love. The film and her performance received acclaim from critics. Nikhat Kazmi remarked, '7 Khoon Maaf would undoubtedly end up as a milestone in Priyanka Chopra's career graph. The actor displays exquisite command over a complex character that is definitely a first in Indian cinema.'[98] Aniruddha Guha of Daily News and Analysis wrote: 'Priyanka Chopra takes on a character that most of her contemporaries would shy away from and enacts it in a way that only she possibly can. For a woman with as many shades as Susanna, Chopra gets a crack at the role of a lifetime and she sparkles like never before.'[99] Chopra's performance earned her the Filmfare Critics Award for Best Actress and a nomination for the Filmfare Award, IIFA Award, Producers Guild Film Award, and Screen Award for Best Actress.[100]

Chopra's final release of the year saw her reprising her role as Roma in the second installment of the Don franchise, Don 2. Although the film received mixed reviews,[101] Chopra's performance earned positive feedback from critics. According to The Express Tribune, 'Chopra ... seems to be the perfect choice for an action heroine. As you watch her effortlessly beat up some thugs in the movie, you come to the realisation that she may be the first proper female action hero in Bollywood.'[102]Don 2 was a major success in India and overseas, earning over ₹2.06 billion (US$30 million) worldwide.[103][104]

Recognition for Barfi! and Mary Kom (2012–2014)

Chopra's first film of 2012 was Karan Malhotra's action drama Agneepath, in which she starred with Hrithik Roshan, Sanjay Dutt and Rishi Kapoor. Produced by Karan Johar, the film is a remake of his father's 1990 production of the same name. In one of several accidents to happen during production, Chopra's lehenga (a traditional skirt) caught fire while filming a sequence for an elaborate Ganpati festival song.[105] She featured as Kaali Gawde, Roshan's loquacious love interest in the film. Mayank Shekhar noted how much Chopra stood out in the male-dominated film.[106]Agneepath broke Bollywood's highest opening-day earnings record, and had a worldwide gross of ₹1.93 billion (US$28 million).[103][107] Chopra next co-starred with Shahid Kapoor in Kunal Kohli's romance, Teri Meri Kahaani. The film relates the stories of three unconnected couples (each played by Kapoor and Chopra), born in different eras.[108]

Chopra at a promotional event for Barfi! in 2012

Anurag Basu's Barfi!, with Ranbir Kapoor and Ileana D'Cruz, was her final appearance of 2012. Set in the 1970s, the film tells the story of three people, two of whom are physically disabled. Chopra played Jhilmil Chatterjee, an autistic woman who falls in love with a deaf, mute man (Kapoor). Rituparno Ghosh, an acclaimed director, considered it a 'very, very brave' role to accept given how demanding it is for an actor to convincingly portray a woman with autism.[109] To prepare for the role, Chopra visited several mental institutions and spent time with autistic people.[110] The film received critical acclaim[109][111] and was a major commercial success, earning ₹1.75 billion (US$25 million) worldwide.[112] Rachit Gupta of Filmfare found Chopra to be the film's 'surprise package' and found her performance to be 'the best representation of [autism] on Indian celluloid'.[113]Pratim D. Gupta of The Telegraph noted that Kapoor and Chopra turn in two of the finest performances seen on the Indian screen, although he found her to be a 'tad showy' in her part.[114] Chopra received Best Actress nominations at the Filmfare, Screen, IIFA and Producers Guild Film Awards.[100] The film was chosen as India's entry for the 85th Academy Awards.[115]Don 2, Agneepath and Barfi! ranked among the highest grossing Bollywood films of all time up until then.[103]

In 2013, she lent her voice to the character of Ishani, the reigning Pan-Asian champion from India and the love interest of the main protagonist in the Disney Animation Studios's film Planes, a spinoff of Pixar's Cars franchise. Chopra, a fan of Disney films, had fun voicing the character saying 'The closest I could come to being a Disney princess, I think, was Ishani'.[116] The film was a commercial success, grossing approximately US$240 million worldwide.[117] She played an NRI girl in the Apoorva Lakhia's bilingual action drama Zanjeer (Thoofan in Telugu), a remake of the 1973 Hindi film of the same name, which met with poor reactions from critics and was unsuccessful at the box office.[118][119] Chopra next reprised her role of Priya in Rakesh Roshan's Krrish 3—a sequel to the 2006 superhero film Krrish—with Hrithik Roshan, Vivek Oberoi and Kangana Ranaut. Critics opined that Chopra's role in the film was small, with Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV writing that she 'is saddled with a sketchily written role and is reduced to the status of a hanger-on waiting for things to unfold'.[120] The feature became a box office success, earning over ₹3 billion (US$43 million) worldwide, to become Chopra's biggest commercial success to that point and her fourth major hit in the last two years.[121][122] She also appeared in an item number titled 'Ram Chahe Leela' for Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela. The song, which took four days to rehearse, saw Chopra execute a contemporary mujra, that incorporated complicated dance steps.[123]

In 2014, Chopra played the lead female role in Yash Raj Films's romantic action drama Gunday directed by Ali Abbas Zafar, alongside Ranveer Singh, Arjun Kapoor and Irrfan Khan. She portrayed Nandita, a cabaret dancer in Calcutta. Set in the 1970s, the film tells the story of two best friends who fall in love with Nandita. Gunday proved to be a box-office success, grossing over ₹1 billion (US$14 million) worldwide.[124] Chopra next starred as the title character in Mary Kom, a biographical film of the five time world boxing champion and Olympic bronze medalist Mary Kom.[125] To prepare for the role, she spent time with Kom and received four months of boxing training.[126] The film premiered at the 2014 Toronto International Film Festival, received positive reviews from critics, and her performance received critical acclaim.[127][128] Deborah Young of The Hollywood Reporter criticised the film's screenplay but praised Chopra's 'grit as an actress that she overcomes trashy set-ups like these and, punch after punch, fills the screen with real emotion'.[129]Namrata Joshi from Outlook opined that Chopra's sincere and earnest performance brings out Kom's 'determination as well as her vulnerabilities, and insecurities',[130]Mary Kom emerged as a commercial success, with revenues of ₹1.04 billion (US$15 million) at the box office.[131] Chopra won the Screen Award for Best Actress, the Producers Guild Film Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role, and received another nomination for the Filmfare Award for Best Actress.[132][133]

Expansion into American film and television (2015–present)

In 2015, Chopra starred in Zoya Akhtar's Dil Dhadakne Do, an ensemble comedy-drama alongside Anil Kapoor, Shefali Shah, Ranveer Singh, Anushka Sharma and Farhan Akhtar. The film tells the story of a dysfunctional Punjabi family (the Mehras), who invite their family and friends on a cruise trip to celebrate the parents' 30th wedding anniversary. She portrayed the role of Ayesha Mehra, a successful entrepreneur and the eldest child. Pratim D. Gupta from The Telegraph wrote of Chopra, 'From the propah body language to the measured speech [...] shows the kind of depth she is able to bring to her lines and characters these days.[134] Conversely, Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express commented that it was time for her 'to being a little messy: all these not-a-hair-out-place roles are making her constrained.'[135] The cast of Dil Dhadakne Do won the Screen Award for Best Ensemble Cast, and Chopra was nominated for a Screen Award, IIFA Award, and Producers Guild Film Award for Best Actress.[136][137]

Chopra at the 2019 Cannes Film Festival

Chopra signed a talent holding deal with ABC Studios and was later cast in the American thriller series Quantico as the character Alex Parrish.[138][139][140] The series premiered on 27 September 2015 on ABC, making Chopra the first South Asian to headline an American network drama series.[141] The series received positive reviews from television critics and Chopra was praised for her performance.[142][143]James Poniewozik of The New York Times described Chopra as the 'strongest human asset' of the show, and added that 'she is immediately charismatic and commanding.'[144] She received the People's Choice Award for Favourite Actress In A New TV Series for her role in Quantico, becoming the first South Asian actress to win a People's Choice Award.[145] The following year, Chopra won a second People's Choice Award for Favorite Dramatic TV Actress.[146]Quantico was cancelled after three seasons in 2018.[147]

Chopra next portrayed Kashibai, the first wife of the Maratha general PeshwaBajirao I, in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's epic historical romance drama Bajirao Mastani. The feature opened to positive reviews, and Chopra received praise for her portrayal which several reviewers regarded as her best performance to date.[148] Rajeev Masand wrote 'the film benefits from a nice touch of playfulness and humor in Priyanka Chopra's Kashibai. Chopra brings grace to the character, and practically steals the film.'[149] Film critic Raja Sen thought that Chopra, despite not being in the title role, owned the film, and wrote 'Chopra's terrific in the part, her intelligently expressive eyes speaking volumes and her no-nonsense Marathi rhythm bang-on.'[150] A major commercial success, Bajirao Mastani grossed ₹3.5 billion (US$51 million) at the box office, becoming one of the highest-grossing Indian films of all time.[151] For her performance, she won the Filmfare Award, IIFA Award, and Screen Award for Best Supporting Actress, and received a nomination for the Producers Guild Film Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role.[136][152][137]

In 2016, Chopra starred as a police officer in Prakash Jha's social drama Jai Gangaajal. Writing for The Hindu, Namrata Joshi thought that she 'looks off-colour, disinterested and uninvolved with the goings on through most of the film'.[153] It did not perform well commercially.[154] She next produced the Marathi comedy-drama Ventilator under her production company Purple Pebble Pictures, which went on to win three awards at the 64th National Film Awards.[155] The following year, Chopra made her Hollywood live-action film debut by playing the antagonist Victoria Leeds in Seth Gordon's action comedy Baywatch opposite Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron. The feature received unfavorable reviews.[156] Scott Mendelson of Forbes wrote 'Chopra has fun as the baddie, but she stays in the background until the end of the movie and really only gets one big scene at the end of the picture.'[157]Baywatch was not a commercial success in North America but the film performed better in the overseas markets.[158] The 2018 Sundance Film Festival marked the release of Chopra's next American film, A Kid Like Jake, a drama about gender variance, starring Jim Parsons and Claire Danes.[159] Amy Nicholson of Variety commended her 'charming presence' but thought that her role added little value to the film.[160]

A year later, Chopra had another supporting part, as a yoga ambassador, in Todd Strauss-Schulson's comedy Isn't It Romantic, which starred Rebel Wilson in the lead role.[161]Dana Schwartz of Entertainment Weekly considered her to be 'perfectly cast' but Benjamin Lee of The Guardian thought that she was 'not quite interesting enough'.[162][163] She returned to Hindi cinema later in 2019 with Shonali Bose's biographical drama The Sky Is Pink, in which she played mother to Aisha Chaudhary, a teenager suffering from a terminal illness. She also produced the project, and connected with the story for its blend of humour and tragedy.[164]

Upcoming projects

Chopra will next star in two films for Netflix: an adaptation of Aravind Adiga's satirical novel The White Tiger and Robert Rodriguez's superhero film We Can Be Heroes.[165] Chopra has also committed to star alongside Mindy Kaling in a comedy about an Indian-American wedding, and will portray the lawyer Vanita Gupta in Gordan's courtroom drama Tulia, an adaptation of a non-fiction book Tulia: Race, Cocaine, and Corruption (2005) based on the 1999 racial injustice case that took place in the city of the same name.[166][167][168] She is also producing over a dozen regional films in various languages under her production company, and is developing a sitcom for ABC based on the life of Madhuri Dixit, for which she will serve as an executive producer.[169][170][171][172]

Music career

Chopra's main vocal influence was her father, who helped develop her interest in singing.[173][174] She used her vocal talent early in her pageantry career.[175] Her first recording, the song 'Ullathai Killathe' in the Tamil film Thamizhan (2002), was made at the urging of her director and co-star, Vijay (who had noticed her singing on the set).[176] She declined to sing playback for 'Tinka Tinka' in her film Karam (2005), preferring to concentrate on her acting career, but later sang the song live on the television programme Sa Re Ga Ma Pa.[177] Chopra recorded an unreleased song for Bluffmaster! (2005).[178] In August 2011, Universal Music Group signed Chopra to a worldwide recording agreement with DesiHits. The deal indicated that her first studio album would be released by Interscope Records in North America and by Island Records elsewhere.[179]

'In My City' features rapper will.i.am; according to Chopra, a co-writer,[182] the song was inspired by her unsettled childhood and her journey from a small-town girl to a celebrity.[19] The song received mixed reviews from critics, and was a commercial success in India; it sold more than 130,000 copies in its first week, topped the Hindi pop chart and was certified triple platinum.[182][184] In the United States the single was unsuccessful, with 5,000 digital downloads in its first week according to Nielsen SoundScan, and did not receive radio play.[182] In October 2012, the single won her the Best International Debut award at the People's Choice Awards India.[185] In December 2012, she received three nominations: Best Female Artist, Best Song and Best Video (for 'In My City') at the World Music Awards.[186] She also received the Trailblazer Award from the South Asian Media, Marketing and Entertainment Association for becoming the first Bollywood actor to win a major record deal in the U.S.[5] Chopra was also featured on 'Erase', an EDM song produced by the American DJ and producer duo The Chainsmokers.[187][188]

We are proud of the work she has done with us so far on child rights, and, we are thrilled about all what we will be doing together so that no child gets left behind.'[211] In 2009, she shot a documentary for the organisation Alert India to increase understanding of leprosy.[212] She modelled for designer Manish Malhotra and Shaina NC's charity fashion show to raise funds for the Cancer Patients Aid Association (CPAA) NGO.[213] In 2010 Chopra was one of several celebrities who created promotional messages for Pearls Wave Trust, which campaigns against violence and abuse of women and girls.[214] Chopra also launched the 'Save the Girl Child' campaign, which aims to change the attitudes of Indians towards girls.[215] In 2012 Chopra spoke at the launch of Awakening Youth, an anti-addiction programme.[216]

At a public event in 2019, an activist criticised Chopra for a tweet in which she hailed India's military forces while tensions amid Pakistan and India were escalating. The main line of argument was that she was warmongering and that was incompatible with her job as UN Peace Ambassador. Chopra's response at the event was that she is patriotic; she was also fast to silence the activist criticising her.[217][218][219] Pakistan asked for Chopra being sacked from her UN job but UN supported Chopra's right to talk for herself.[220][221]

She continued to write sporadically for newspapers. In August 2012 she wrote a column published in The Times of India titled 'No woman in Mumbai feels safe any longer', discussing the murder of 25-year-old Pallavi Purkayastha,[255] whom she met while working on Don.[32] In the article, Chopra expressed her views about the safety of women in cities.[255] In a July 2014 article published in The Guardian, Chopra criticised female genital mutilation and child marriage.[256] Later that year, Chopra wrote an op-ed for The New York Times titled 'What Jane Austen Knew' about the importance of education for girls.
