Meera Chopra on bond with Priyanka, Parineeti
Speaking to Siddharth Kannan on his YouTube channel, Meera opened up about her relationship with Priyanka Chopra and Parineeti Chopra. She admitted that Bollywood has failed her and she didn't want to be part of any camps in the industry. She shared that she is ‘missing’ from all the conversation with the Chopra sisters. “From the start, there was not much closeness between us that we would look like friends here. That would be fake. But I can say that when three or four girls join the industry, they help each other. That did not happen to me. I never asked for help and the help never came from them. I am not the one that asks for help and even they never offered any help," she said.
'Priyanka has always been very generous'
Meera further added how she spent a lot of time with Priyanka and Parineeti while they were young, but their dynamic has changed over the years. Meera added that with Parineeti now, their families 'don't talk since ages.' She said, “When families don’t talk, I don’t want to cross that line which would hurt my family. Parineeti ke saath kabhi family waali baat hi nahi thi. Priyanka ki family se main aaj bhi bohot close hoon... Priyanka has always been very generous, but ek jo sisterhood hota hein na... woh missing hai. Aur woh meri taraf se missing nahi hai. I have always extended that branch of love, but woh reciprocate bhi toh hona chahiye (There was never a family feeling with Parineeti. I am very close with Priyanka's family. The sisterhood is missing, not from my end. It was never reciprocated). ”
