Bollywood actor Priyanka Chopra, who is scaling new heights internationally, has said she doesn’t want to limit herself.

Bollywood actor Priyanka Chopra, who is scaling new heights internationally, has said she doesn’t want to limit herself.

Priyanka Chopra had her first global break with the American TV show Quantico and will soon make a grand Hollywood debut with Baywatch.

“For me, more than being an actor or a musician or any of the multiple things that have been given, I want to be an achiever and I don’t want to be limited to just one thing,” Priyanka said.

The actress, who had her first global break with the American TV show Quantico and will soon make a grand Hollywood debut with Baywatch, said, “You have to figure out what your weakness and your strengths are. Once you identify your weakness and your strength, you put the weakness in a box, shut it and put it away and you focus on the strength and you become the best version of whatever you are within that time and you never sit and say ‘Oh no I messed up and I can’t do it’.”

The actress was speaking in an interview to Flare Magazine, a Canadian fashion magazine.

After making waves in the Indian entertainment industry, Bollywood’s ‘desi’ girl made an action-packed debut in the international fiction TV space as Alex Parrish, an FBI recruit who becomes a suspect of terrorist bombing of New York’s Grand Central Station.

She is now busy shooting season two of Quantico, which will return in September. The first season of the show will be back in India from the mid-season break on Star World and Star World HD next month. “I thank my mom and my dad and my Indian genes for the fact that I don’t necessarily need to train very much. I’m very active, I’m very agile by nature and I’ve done action movies, I’m very familiar with it but when it comes to training I’ve only trained in parts. Like I trained for a boxing movie (Mary Kom) that I did recently but not really otherwise. Otherwise I don’t really like gyms. I’m a tough girl but I haven’t needed to exercise,” Priyanka said.
