Priyanka Chopra Once Said She Had No Bollywood Friend To 'Call From Bed At Night': 'To Bare My Heart…'
Last Updated: In a 2005 interview, Priyanka Chopra admitted that despite knowing many people in Bollywood, she didn't have a single real friend. Before she became an international star and a global icon, Priyanka Chopra gave the world a glimpse into her life behind the fame — and it wasn't all red carpets and camera flashes. In a 2005 interview with Rediff during her stay in Boston, where her father Ashok Chopra was undergoing treatment for liver cancer, the then-rising Bollywood actress opened up about the personal cost of success in the film industry. 'I have a hundred million acquaintances in Bollywood, but there isn't a single friend I can call in the middle of the night from my bed and bare my heart," she had admitted. At the time, Priyanka was riding high on a wave of back-to-back big-budget films. From Bluff Master with Abhishek Bachchan to upcoming projects with the likes of Shah Rukh Khan, Hrithik Roshan, Akshay Kumar and Amitabh Bachchan, her calendar was packed. But the glamour didn't shield her from what she described as her 'worst fear." 'It seems to be the higher you get in this profession, the more success you get, the lonelier you are," she said. Priyanka had only been in the industry for three years then, but was already attached to a string of high-profile films including Krrish, Don, Nikhil Advani's untitled venture and Farah Khan's Happy New Year. 'I have been around for about three years, and these incredible things are happening," she said. 'I am afraid of loneliness, and being without a friend," she added later. 'I am afraid of dying without any of my friends around. I don't want that to happen." Even though her Bollywood career was taking off, Priyanka's heart was still in Boston. She had gone to high school there, and the city felt like home again as her family came together to care for her father during his illness. 'I come here almost every year, and my best friends are in this city," she shared. 'I am going through a very difficult period in my life right now. But for my relatives and friends here, it would not have been easy to cope," she had said. Years later, Priyanka Chopra married Nick Jonas in a grand wedding in December 2018, blending Indian and Western traditions over several days of celebrations. In January 2022, the couple welcomed their daughter, Malti Marie, via surrogacy. First Published: July 27, 2025, 10:38 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
