Hello people,
“Fashion is about something that
comes from within you”
Whenever it comes to fashion and the trends, we always that one person in our mind, who is always modish in whatever they wear. In India, stereotype exists against dusky or dark coloured people. Priyanka Chopra is fashion savvy and always astounds everyone with the way she carries herself.
“Fashion is a way of speaking who you are,
without having to speak anything.”
Priyanka Chopra is no exception, even before the time she embarked her journey into the world of fashion, she faced racism and had been ridiculed and biased for her skin colour. This made her low on self esteem and resulted in lack of self confidence. Her journey had not always being a bed of roses, she had all those up and downs in her carrier like anybody does have. That’s why she returned to India after her schooling in US for three years.
“I was a gawky kid, had low self-esteem, came from a modest middle-class background, had white marks on my legs … But I was damn hard working. Today, my legs sell 12 brands.”
It was to her surprise, when she got selected for Miss India Pageant after her mother, Madhu Chopra had secretly sent her photos there.
“I don’t like losing,
in anything I do,
whatever it might be.”
After covering this milestone of her life, she was to make her debut into Bollywood with Abbas Mustan’s romantic thriller Humraaz, which fell through for various reasons.Later on, she finally made her bollywood debut with Anil Sharma’s The Hero: Love story of a spy. She was aprreciated for her role for this as well as for her very next movie, Andaaz. Life is not always good to you, but it can never be the same all time. After constant flip-flops in her carrier she came up with some really good movies namely Fashion, Kaminey, Whats your Raashee?, 7 khoon maaf, Barfi!, Mary Kom, Dil Dhadakne Do and Bajirao Mastani.
