3:16Now PlayingOne of the most successful and loved actresses, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, recently spoke about working in female-centric films and facing failure at the box office. Our very own desi girl, who sat down for a masterclass with Bhumi Pednekar as a part of the Jio MAMI Film Festival in Mumbai, admitted that initially, she felt that she had let down women when her woman-centric film wouldn’t work. Speaking with Bhumi and the audience present in the room, the 'Citadel' actress said, 'There’s a lot of pressure when you have a female-led film because we have so few, so when they don’t do well you feel the collective failure on behalf of all women.' She added, 'I used to feel like I’ve taken women a few steps back and let women-kind down because there are so few of us that get the opportunity to do this.' Priyanka also revealed that she was told that actresses work in female-centric films only when they are at the end of their careers. 'I signed on for the film right after 'Krrish' and was told that actresses only do female-oriented projects at the end of their careers so they can win a National Award', said PeeCee. Notably, after the massive success of Krish, Priyanka went on to sign Madhur Bhandarkar's 'Fashion.' Priyanka will next be seen in 'Jee Le Zara' with Alia Bhatt and Katrina Kaif. Reportedly, she also has a Kalpana Chawla biopic in her kitty. For more news and updates, stay tuned to ETimes.
