Parineeti Chopra has come a long way in the industry, with some hit and not so hit films, it’s fair to say that the star had her own fair share of success and failures in the industry like every other. However, with all that, it’s definitely reckoned that she is one of the finest in B-town.
Speaking of that, the actress once shared how PeeCee’s advice led to her success in Bollywood.
Parineeti Chopra said, “She always gives me this advice, she said, ‘When we are in a film and we do not meet the audience’s expectations of ours, that’s our fault. Because they do expect a good performance from us. So don’t be in a film (where you) don’t give it your all. Do something interesting or do something, don’t be in a film just for the sake of it’,”
She added, “She said this to me a couple of years ago, I remember, and it made so much sense to me because it is such a privileged position to be in when the audience or the media or the critics-reviewers actually expect something out of you. And when you don’t do it, they abuse you. ‘What happened to you, we expected more out of you.’ It is such a good position to be in that the audience actually wants to see you in something special, always do something special,”
She added on how PeeCee’s advice led to her success in Bollywood, saying, “Because of that conversation, now finally when I did these kinds of films and got these kinds of reviews, she was the happiest for me. She said, ‘This is what I was talking about. This is what you need to do. Don’t do something substandard. Always do your best and give your best.'”
She concluded, “She was very happy when I did those three films and we had long conversations about these three films. She herself does brilliant work and she expects, she wants me also to do that,” as quoted by Hindustan Times.
