What was special about Priyanka as an International actress from India? There are many actresses who did International Movies and shows earlier and there would be many who would do them in the future. Priyanka’s debut American show ‘Quantico’ won her international recognition and her lovemaking scenes in the television series had been a big talking point.
Her debut Hollywood movie ‘Baywatch’ was released recently and Priyanka Chopra played one of the villains in the movie. She didn’t have a meaty role to perform but had scenes where she could appear in a bikini. She indeed created a sensation in the international circuits. But then, was that enough to confer a prestigious award like Dadasaheb Phalke Academy Award? This is the present discussion in the film critics’ circles.
