Priyanka Chopra, who debuted in 2002 with the film Thamizhan, has shared insights into her journey from a beauty pageant winner to a successful actress in both Bollywood and Hollywood. In an interview with Vogue Arabia, she reflected on the challenges she faced, stating, “I wasn’t related to anyone, so there was no one who was going to help me out in this business.” Chopra recalled her early struggles, particularly with dancing, saying she was “a dreadful dancer” at the start of her career.
