Hi,
Not to spark off any controversy, and no offence to her fans, but does anybody else think that priyanka chopra can't connect with audience through her characters?
She comes across as wooden; her emotions don't move me. Sometimes, I feel she sucks the fun out of the movie... had it not been for male characters/their energy, I could not have sat through some of her movies.
Ex. the movie with abhishek as con-mon (forget the name)... abi's character was lively, kept things going.
Ex. krissh, she couldn't match hritik's energy or krish's playfulness
Ex. don with srk .. well, I din't really like srk in the movie either (except for the last scene), but still priyanka failed to move me.
Ex. Okay, am getting stoned for saying it, but just saw fashion.... the characters or the movie didn't engage me. priyanka cries, shouldn't she or the story move the audience?? And I get moved/cry easily.
I can't say what it is... if someone else who feels the same point out what is missing in her performance, I would like.... Again, not saying she is a bad actress, but her presence kills the mood in movies I mentioned above... she seems like she is not engaged with the characters within the movie itself?????
Again, not my intention to offend her fans! Just feels good to get it off my chest.😆
Persy

Well, I felt the same about BIG B. I always wondered why he was so big... then I saw mukandar ka shikandar... and I fell in love with him (well, most of his characters) 🤣 Maybe it is cause none of her performances have touched me or excited me yet.

i agree with u,there is always something is missing whenever she comes on screen.well honestly i never find her attractive anyways,but she always look fake to me i never saw a role really suits her.
i don't know how to say but u know ash was in HDCS and rani in hum tum or priety in veer zara they were lookig OUTSTANDING preety and perfect.i think her dress sence is not good she only wear westren dresses and when she wear eastren dresses there is always a touch of west.
SHE NEVER ATTRACT ME or I NEVER SAID "ah she is so good"
no offence to her fans.

Priyanka is a lovely girl and definitely star material.But I don't see any directors give her any role which could become a female iconic one,like Geet of JWM or Nandini of HDDCS,Rani in Black.

In fact I would be shocked if directors like Imitiaz Ali or SLB would consider her for heroine-centric roles.

Fashion could have been Priyanka's turning point in her career,She was competent even good in some scenes.

Dostana is another film where inspite of being the only heroine with 2 other actors(we will leave out Shilpa and Bobby).She didn't stand out.

Bollywood is really short of top heroines.One reason,Priyanka will survive.

I think she is great definetly has some quality maybe a x factor that works on screen..fashion was the most amazing movie ever seen on hindi cinema for me from the storyline to the screen play...she was never meant to make you emotional i do not think it was showing how strong and hard you have to be to deal with all the crap in that industry. In don she was great especially in that fight scene with srk...that again was not meant to emotional. She has i do not think done a role thats kajol type shes a different type of actor which i like ...barsaat was her best film for making you feel sorry for her character.
