Priyanka needs time to move into dream home

Mumbai, March 18 (IANS) Priyanka Chopra's dream home is ready and the actress is delighted. But she hasn't moved in yet and will do so when she has the time to do it up herself.

'I'll have my house-warming party and move to my new place only when I return from Miami in July. My parents have shifted though, leaving me by myself in our old place,' she grumbled good-naturedly.

'Last week my parents had a house-warming party for their friends. Since I had no time, I refrained from inviting any of my friends. Isn't that sad? We had to postpone our shift several times. We were supposed to move in last Diwali, but the interiors had to be completed,' the actress told IANS.

Priyanka is house-proud. 'It's such a feeling to own a home that I've watched come up brick by brick. Full marks to Suzanne Roshan for making my dream home a reality. I think her aesthetics are very close to mine. My parents' apartment and mine are adjacent (as they were in our earlier residence) and are so beautifully done. Both have been done up differently.'

Since Priyanka is shooting non-stop to complete Madhur Bhandarkar's 'Fashion' before rushing off to complete 'Dostana', she can't pack beyond the stuff she'll need for her trip to Miami.

'But my mom is packing my belongings that I've accumulated over the years. I wish I had more time to enjoy this important move in my life. But I am free only in July after I finish shooting 'Fashion' and Karan Johar's 'Dostana'. After that, no more assignments for the time being and only then will I get some time to move in and enjoy my new home.

'Until then, I'll be happy watching my parents enjoy our new home. Their happiness means more to me than my own,' she said.
