Aitraaz, Andaaz and more: Priyanka Chopra's bold roles like Heads of State
Priyanka Chopra Jonas is making headlines for her Hollywood release, Heads of State. The movie, netizens believe, finally honours the actress for who she is. While this is the first time Priyanka Chopra is noticed for a bold role in Hollywood, she had been doing so since her early days in Bollywood. One of her boldest films happened to be when she made her debut in the industry and broke the mold. The film made people stand up and notice her for the actress that PeeCee is. Now, with Heads of State, it is time for the West to notice her, but let's rewind back to when Priyanka went bold in her homeland films itself. Priyanka Chopra Jonas' bold roles in Bollywod From Aitraaz to Mary Kom, stream the boldest performances by Priyanka Chopra Jonas now on OTTplay Premium Priyanka Chopra Jonas' boldest performance yet happens to be Aitraaz. She came and she slayed with the role. In the film, Priyanka played the character of a rich woman who uses power to stalk and harass her ex-flame (played by Akshay Kumar). Him being a mere employee could be a spectator while being molested by the woman he once shared a past with. Andaaz Priyanka Chopra gave another memorable performance in Andaaz, where she played the role of Jiya, a woman who steals Raj Malhotra (Akshay Kumar)'s heart. She portrayed desi girl and Western woman both to perfection and was on the same wavelength as Lara Dutta in the movie. Mujhse Shaadi Karogi Imagine playing a woman who has two suitors (played by Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar) fighting for her. Of course, Priyanka played a modern, young woman. That is the impact and legacy Priyanka Chopra carried in Bollywood (it continued through the Dostana era, too). Mary Kom This one doesn't even need an introduction. Priyanka took on the role of female boxer Mary Kom and showed us her daily challenges from early life. From not having proper meals to growing up and carrying two children on her shoulder, literally, the woman grew many folds and how! Don Don does not call Roma his 'junglee billi' without a reason. Priyanka Chopra as a cop is hell-bent on finding clues so that she could take Don into custody and would go to all lengths to do that. The action that you see in Heads of State? Roma has done it all in Don already!

When Kareena Kapoor revealed going vegetarian transformed her "inside out'; shared Sharmila Tagore's ageless beauty Secret
In an industry in which beauty often feels filtered, likewise food choices are dictated by trends; refreshing honesty was once brought to the table literally by Kareena Kapoor Khan. Kareena spoke about something during celebrity nutritionist Rujuta Diwekar's book launch. Her deepest physical and mental transformation didn't come from luxury detoxes or fad diets, but instead it came from her embracing a purely vegetarian lifestyle. 'When I worked with Rujuta and turned pure vegetarian, my body and face completely transformed,' Kareena recalled. She said she isn't strictly vegetarian today, though she leans toward a largely plant-based diet because of how it makes her feel: light, energetic, and also truly herself. She stated that such change was 'inside out' instead of on the outside of her own self. Our authors Kareena Kapoor Khan & @RujutaDiwekar in conversation with @Chikisarkar for the book launch of The Commonsense Diet! — juggernautbooks (@juggernautbooks) April 3, 2025 Love for Khichdi For Kareena, that idea for comfort food actually does still remain quite beautifully rooted within the Indian tradition, in a world that has an obsession with fancy salads as well as with high-end superfoods. Since 'My comfort food is khichdi, and if I don't have it for 2–3 days, I start craving it. She laughed. 'I actually message Rujuta saying, 'There's no khichdi in my diet—I can't sleep at night!'' That rice, lentils, and ghee bring deep joy, and also the best glow reminds us about her real love for plain food. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Cervecería Nacional CFD: Calcula cuánto podrías ganar invirtiendo solo $100 Empieza a invertir Inscríbete ahora Undo Sharmila Tagore's Timeless Glow? It's in the Sabzi! Kareena shared that legendary actress Sharmila Tagore possesses a beauty that is truly evergreen, a sweet detail. Kareena said, 'She eats tori and lauki every single day.' This is a constant thing that she says. 'That's her secret—simple, home-cooked food.' It is a nod toward the quiet power within old-school Indian cooking since it is timeless, local, and nourishing. Sharmila has a resemblance to this cooking in a big way. A Kitchen Stirred by Love Kareena stated that there is just nothing that can actually ever compare to a quite good home-cooked Indian meal. This is true even despite all of the world travels that she did and access to the global cuisines. 'I've eaten everything—French, Japanese, Italian—but I never feel as good as I do after eating dal-chawal at home. I feel like a zillion bucks,' she shared. Even though she isn't the chief cook at home, Kareena happily admits that her husband, Saif Ali Khan, now runs the kitchen. 'Saif has taken to cooking, and honestly, he's better than me. I don't even know how to boil an egg! she says with her usual honesty and little laugh. The Real Glow-Up In a sea of fancy serums and Instagram hacks, Kareena's story shows that simple, steady habits—and pure joy in eating—can work real magic. Whether it's the glow from bottle gourd veggies, the warm comfort of khichdi, or the giggles over dal-chawal, her take suggests that returning to basics is the most genuine luxury of all.
