Priyanka has often spoken about this particular life-changing incident of her life. Only recently, she had shared a hilarious video clip where her mother, Dr. Madhu Chopra had said how she had reacted to her daughter’s win. Dr. Chopra recalled how she said the “stupidest thing” ever. She said: “I had tears streaming down my eyes what’s going to happen. I just need to hug her. And when I hugged her I spoke the stupidest thing -- Instead of telling her that I was so glad, so happy that you’re Miss World. I said, ‘Babe, now what will happen to your studies’.” 

Meanwhile, on the work front, the actress will be seen in a multitude of projects soon. The Quantico star was last seen in The Sky Is Pink opposite, Farhan Akhtar. The Shonali-bose-directed drama also featured Zaira Wasim, Rohit Saraf, and Lushin Dubey. Her last Hollywood outing was Baywatch, an action-comedy film that featured Zac Efron and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
