Priyanka Chopra Jonas is a name that resonates both in Bollywood and Hollywood.
Known as one of the highest-paid Indian actresses, her career is a blend of hard work, ambition, and adaptability.
Yet, despite the stardom, she’s openly shared her anxieties about the unpredictable nature of the acting world.
The Reality of Being an Actor
While Priyanka has achieved remarkable success, the 42-year-old actress confesses that her job isn’t without its challenges.
“My job is uncertain. It’s not a cheque coming in every month, so it creates an anxiety,” she told Harper’s Bazaar UK.
Despite this, she admits to being an actor at heart.
“I’m a greedy actor. I love my job very much,” she says, showing her passion for the craft that has taken her from Quantico to Baywatch.
A Simple Life Beyond Fame
Beyond her impressive £60 million net worth, shared with her husband Nick Jonas, Priyanka cherishes the quieter moments in life.
“I enjoy the simpler things,” she reflects, citing walks, ice cream, and reading as her favorite activities.
She describes herself as deeply sentimental and loves to bond with her family.
“I’m a Cancer – I cry at the drop of a hat. I love my family, I live to eat,” she shares.
While her public persona often involves glamour and action-packed roles, she finds comfort in the small joys.
Cooking Isn’t Her Thing
Despite her love for food, cooking isn’t Priyanka’s strong suit.
“I eat, but I’m not very helpful in the kitchen,” she admits, laughing at the thought.
The actress recalls how her father, growing up in India, discouraged her from learning to cook.
“My father wasn’t a big fan of me learning how to cook.
He always saw the women in his family in the kitchen, and he was very clear that I wouldn’t do that,” she says.
Although cooking is not her forte, Priyanka remains true to her love for enjoying meals and spending time with loved ones.
An Unexpected Path to Stardom
Priyanka’s rise to fame was far from predictable.
Moving to the United States at age 12 to live with relatives in Iowa, she convinced her parents to let her stay through high school.
Returning to India at 17, her younger brother sparked the idea of entering the Miss India 2000 competition.
She placed second, but her big break came when she won Miss World, catapulting her into the limelight and into a successful acting career.
Business Ventures and Family
Today, Priyanka isn’t just a successful actress—she’s a savvy businesswoman.
She has invested in several companies, including the popular dating app Bumble.
“We took it to India, which was cool because my brother met his fiancée on the app.
For once, he was grateful for something I did! They’re so cute. I love love,” Priyanka laughs, proud of her entrepreneurial pursuits and the unexpected way they’ve impacted her family.
From beauty queen to business mogul, Priyanka Chopra Jonas continues to shine both on and off the screen, embracing the unpredictable nature of her career while staying grounded by her loved ones and her simple joys in life.
