Priyanka Chopra: When Women work together, it's called a Cat Fight but for Men its Bromance

In all walks of life, women are often pitted against each other and even believed that they pull each other down, The same goes on within the Bollywood industry where female actors are always set in comparison to other female leads. And, recently, global star Priyanka Chopra was present at Beautycon in Los Angeles, where she was questioned regarding the same subject.

As per a report in E Online, PeeCee said that she is often quizzed whether she gets along with her women co-stars. She believes the lack of opportunities for women is the germ behind the "cat fight" narrative and while there is a perception that women try to pull each other down, the men are assumed to have a "bromance" with fellow male stars.

"I've had so many times where I'm doing interviews and people always ask me, 'You're doing a movie with a woman actor. Did you guys get along? Were there cat fights?' But when it comes to boys, they say, 'Oh, my gosh. That's a bromance, and everyone works so well," Priyanka said at Beautycon Los Angeles.

She further added, "I feel like, over time, because women had the lack of opportunities, we were pitted against each other. Because there were only five places a woman could be hired and so we were elbowing each other out to get to that one spot.”

The Desi Girl further stated that she believes in order to change this perception, women in power need to support other women. "The more opportunity we create for each other, the more sisterhood will grow," she shared.

"We're 50 percent of the world population, we need to be represented in every field. We need to be empowered by each other, by people who are in positions of power, by putting (women) in positions of power. I realized many, many years ago, the more I champion women in my own small way, maybe I'll be able to create a world, around me at least, where women run the show. Because we kinda do it really well," she said.

Meanwhile, on the work front, Priyanka will be next seen in Shonali Bose’s The Sky is Pink, which also features Farhan Akhtar and Zaira Wasim. The film is slated to hit the screens on
