Priyanka Chopra On Producing Films, 'It's Really My Quest To Try And Influx Hollywood With Indian Talent'
Priyanka Chopra is one the most aspiring actors in Bollywood and Hollywood. The actress, who's gearing up for the release of her upcoming Netflix release We Are The Heroes, is soaking in the marital bliss. PCJ completed two years of her marriage with American singer Nick Jonas and celebrated 2nd marriage anniversary. Recently, the actress along with her singer husband made an appearance virtually at a Leadership Summit. 

More than being a bankable star, PCJ is also a proud owner of a production house, Purple Pebble Pictures which often produces regional film. Speaking about the same at Hindustan Times Leadership Summit, Priyanka Chopra said, "When I joined the film industry (and that goes for both, in America and in India), there is always opportunity for the big guns, who have ben established. It takes a really long time for writing, directing, production, acting talent to be able to get throught the doors. My company was all about giving opportunities to smaller, more quaint stories and that’s how the regional cinema thing started."

"And also my mother told me that when I turn 30, at the ripe old age of 30, I might not have a career very soon. So I was like, ‘You’re right’. We started the company and today in both countries, multiple languages, across multiple mediums. My greatest joy with Purple Pebble is being able to create an all South-Asian cast, movies and TV shows in Hollywood. We haven’t seen that very often. It is really my quest to try and influx Hollywood with Indian talent, as much as I can,” she further added.
 
On the work front, after The Sky Is Pink, Priyanka Chopra has Netflix's The White Tiger opposite Rajkummar Rao in the pipeline. ALSO READ: We Can Be Heroes Trailer: Priyanka Chopra Aka Ms Granda’s Netflix Original Is Every Bit Of A Thriller; Superhero Kids Film To Arrive On Christmas –Video
