As per a News18 report, the actor said, “I think what’s non-negotiable now is actually very true, I can’t work with people whom I don’t like anymore. It’s really non-negotiable for me. I have to admire, look up to the people I work with, like the people that I’m surrounded with. I’ve been doing this for a very long time and I want to be excited about going to work. I want to be inspired about going to work and that’s become non-negotiable for me. So when I meet the people I’m going to work with, I take notes in little pads. But that truly is… As I’ve evolved, it has become very important to me."
Before coming to India last week for the NMACC launch event in Mumbai and subsequent Citadel promotions, Priyanka Chopra had spoken about the real reason she moved to the US on the podcast Armchair Expert with Dax Shepherd. Priyanka had said, "I was not happy with the work I was getting in Bollywood. I am going to talk about this for the first time because I feel insecure to talk about it. Anjali Acharya of Desi Hits once saw me in a music video and called me. At that time I was shooting for Saat Khoon Maaf. Anjali asked me if I would like to make my music career in America? I was looking for an escape from Bollywood at that time. I was looking for some way to get out of here. I was being pushed into a corner in the industry. People were not casting me. I had complaints with people. I am not good at playing those kinds of games. I was tired of politics and I needed a break."
