She's almost 40. Very few movie roles available now. She should try hard for another tv series. TV or streaming is a good place for older actresses.

Oh please stop with this b** ageism. You are just projecting or being obtuse. That’s absolutely not true. Actresses like Halle Berry, Cate Blanchett, Rachel Weisz, Monica Bellucci, etc. were cast in interesting roles well into their 40’s. There are actually more roles for 30/40’s actresses then younger ones. There are roles for every age and if you have the talent and looks good your age won’t interfere until you are in your 50’s.

She needs to fire her agents. Despite being a global icon(according to indian media) she isn't getting much roles in holly

global icon who opens a movie in her hometown at 2cr..lets not buy every shit their PR tries to cook..doing some B grade movies / 2 bit roles in the west does not make you an icon that too globally..it makes you internationally recognized..but global icon is too big a term..she has become more of a global social media star..as rarely are people flocking to the cinemas now to see her movies..all her HW ventures were disasters..and her comeback fell flat on her face

If you are interpreting her statement differently that’s your prerogative as her fan. To me there are discrepancies in her stories.

At 13, she left her family in India to study in the United States, ........

The bullying tested her resolve and broke it. “I told my mom, ‘I don’t want to do this anymore.’” She returned to India defeated, ....

But where does she say she went back in a year?

She could have stayed for couple years and it broke her? Could be right?

I mean I have been here in US for 12 years and most days I feel, I don’t belong here. 😆

Haain? Where is she putting down India?

She spoke about racism in US

And she said India is also obsessed with fair skin. Ain’t a lie buddy. It’s the truth. Anyone who has grew up with darker skin tone in India amongst lighter skin cousins and neighbors, would agree. Everyday you are reminded, woh gori hai, use khana banana nahi aata to chalega, lekin teri shadi kese hogi.. 😆

That dark skin is considered beneath the fair skin is not a myth folks...and if you are a girl then it only adds salt to the injury!

Yes she could have, you are right. I just don’t see making it from 13 to 17 as being broken and defeated. I suppose this is my interpretation of it. She has talked about her stay in the U.S. before and I feel like past interviews have mentioned only one year stay, but I could be wrong.

Guzarish made significant less money than War. The genre and numerous other factors effect a film, blaming it all on the star doesn’t make sense. Priyanka is an icon and the most famous globally whether you like it or not.

TM keeps posting old articles in lame attempts to get Priyanka bashed and some people actually fall for it. Sad! Lol Priyanka’s accomplished a lot in her life, she has nothing to prove to people like you. Jai Hind!

There are discrepancies. Ain’t denying that. I was just talking about this particular incident.

Otherwise she talks about fair obsession of India, Fairness cream advertisements and forgets that she has done those herself. 😆
