Priyanka Chopra, the global star has always wowed us with her gorgeous work onscreen. The actress has essayed some of the best films over the years, and one remains as Bajirao Mastani, where she played the role of Kashibai. However, not many know that PeeCee almost had quit the film then. It was uncovered when Ranveer Singh her co-actor from the film shared the anecdote while in an interview with Film Companion.
Ranveer talking to Film Companion, said, “Miss Know it all, the mastery of the craft of acting has once gone to a set of (the) film called Bajirao Mastani, directed by certain Mr Sanjay Leela Bhansali and I think she was not prepared for the unique style of Mr Bhansali. So for the first time, I saw Priyanka Chopra out of whack. She was like, ‘What is going on?’ Ís this for real?’ ‘Am I in the Twilight zone?’ ‘Is this really happening?’ ‘Are these types of conversations actually happening?’ ‘It is 9 PM and we have not taken a single shot.’ ‘What is going on?’” as quoted in HT.
He added, “She was not prepared for the beast, lovingly known as Sanjay Leela Bhansali. On day three, she was like ‘I am done. I want to quit, I am going home,” Priyanka Chopra was just sitting beside him, who faked a cry at the interview to express her reactions, on the sets back during the shoot.
