Priyanka Chopra joins the gang of Hollywood Royals and it's official!

September 13, 2016

Mumbai, Sep 13: Priyanka Chopra has experienced the kind of career highs very few people across the world have been lucky enough to afford. A feather is added to her ever glistening cap, every other day and the average Indian can’t help but beam with pride.

priyankaAfter being on the cover of TIME, she has now entered the coveted The New Royals list of W Magazine.

The magazine, which clearly mentions that there’s no premeditated entitlement to the list and vouches by its meritocracy, has Priyanka placed alongside such esteemed Hollywood names as Cindy Crawford, Chris Evans, Kanye West, Halle Berry, Kit Harrington, Rami Malek, Sofia Coppola and Jodie Foster.

“In India, the Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra is even more of a household name than Louis-Dreyfus is here, and Chopra’s recent star turn as a FBI trainee in the ABC procedural “Quantico” should make her famous in America, as well. She’s already a fashion week favorite,” the magazine wrote while speaking on the reason behind her being featured.

Priyanka also posted a heart-warmingly inspiring video on her Instagram feed.

“Royalty I really feel is not something that you’re born into that you are, it is a certain quality that when you walk into a room people look, or they just need to turn. And that’s when you’re really blueblooded,” said Priyanka Chopra in the video, which was for the magazine.

Speaking about her winning the Miss India title, she revealed, “I was the gawkiest teenager, I had no self-esteem and I was tomboy so I had scars and I was always falling on my knees and they were not the prettiest legs… I taught myself to take care of my body. Anybody can do it if I can. Today my legs sell 12-15 products in my part of the world. Yeah, they really do.”

Priyanka is currently filming for the second season of ‘Quantico,’, all guns blazing, like only she can.
