 And when she went to the dargah on Monday with some of her family members she chose to offer a chaddar just as any other devotee would, sans any security cover. The actress in fact asked her security personnel to stay outside and then stood in a long queue waiting her turn to offer a chaddar. “However, it was clearly visible from the actress’s face how hassled she was feeling standing amidst the crowd. But she didn’t call for her security and stayed inside for almost 15 minutes until she got a chance to pray,” said a source present at the dargah.
Her fans, in a bid to catch a glimpse of the actress gathered in huge numbers around her, but Priyanka, though frazzled, managed to keep her cool. She later told TOI, “It was very crowded, but I had no problems. I was very happy with my visit.” However, the lady, while trying to move out of the crowded premises hopped into the first car parked outside the dargah, without even waiting to see if it was her car. When she realised the faux pas she apologised to the people inside the car and left the place.

 The amount of chemicals and make-up material they carried raised doubts and seemed fishy to the authorities. Even after they were released, their luggage, which contained all the things required for Priyanka’s look test was detained by two days.
Our source revealed, “The look test for Priyanka happened recently, but it had its ups and downs. Last weekend, the make-up team from the US was here, but was detained at our airport earlier as the authorities had their doubts about the chemicals. They seized their entire luggage, including make-up equipment and cosmetics.

 Few couples in Bollywood have perplexed paparazzi as much as Priyanka Chopra and Harman Baweja have. Their now-on, now-off relationship has kept everyone guessing.
Now, after a year since her alleged ‘break-up’ from Harman, Priyanka was spotted having good time at the Diwali party thrown by the Bawejas last week. A few other Bollywood celebs were also at the party but the only person who got many heads turned was Priyanka. What was she doing there? Hadn’t she moved on from Harman?
We’re sure such questions buzzed in many a head as Priyanka walked in at the party late at night and stayed a few hours.

“Shah Rukh Khan is my idol and has always been. He has been a favourite actor of course, but I really look up to him also as a person . Looking at where he came from and how he became who he is today, I find it extremely fascinating,” Priyanka told in an interview.

I admire a lot about him and I think it’s just fantastic,” said the actress who has bagged the youth award icon for entertainment.

 After playing 12 roles of bride-to-be in What's Your Raashee? , Priyanka Chopra is finally playing the role of a bride, not to one man but seven different men. The actress is gearing up for yet another multiple role in Vishal Bhardwaj's next titled 7 Husbands.
A source reveals, "Vishal was very impressed with Priyanka while working with her in Kaminey. He always referred to her as a dedicated and devoted actress. While scripting for 7 Husbands, without any second thought, he made up his mind to cast the actress in the movie. Vishal also had seen the rushes and promos of What's Your Raashee? with her 12 different avatars and thought she carried it off really well and could do justice to her film."

 If one goes down the memory lane, one can comfortably say that with What's Your Raashee? , Priyanka Chopra may well be boasting of the biggest ever film written for a woman protagonist in the history of Indian cinema. After all, 80 years after legendary British actor Lupino Lane created a (yet unbroken) record for a male actor playing 24 roles in one single film, Only Me (1929), Priyanka Chopra is all set to emulate a similar feat when it comes to female actors. In What's Your Raashee (2009), she plays 12 different roles and the film has already been referred to Guinness Book of World Records for further consideration.
While there have been quite a few double role performances by leading ladies in the past, there aren't many movies where a Bollywood actress has played even a triple role, let aside coming close to enacting a dozen odd characters in a single outing. Even as the film is just a few hours away from release, Joginder Tuteja catches up with the Priyanka and gets conversing around the ego boost that she must have got once Ashutosh Gowariker approached her for the role. She also chats about the complexities involved in bringing the 12 characters alive on screen, her friendship with Harman Baweja as well as the contribution that he has made in her rise as a top Bollywood actor.

 Bollywood director Ashutosh Gowariker, whose What's Your Rashee? premiered at the Toronto Film Festival
here Saturday, said he chose Priyanka Chopra to play the role of 12 brides-in-waiting to rule out beauty as a dominant theme in the film.
In "What's Your Rashee?" (What's your sun sign?), which is based on Madhu Rye's Gujarati novel "Kimball Ravenswood", Priyanka plays the role of 12 girls who meet bride-hunting NRI Yogesh Patel played by Hurman Baweja.
Yogesh, who has been flown in from Chicago by his parents to get married within just 10 days on the advice of the family astrologer, gets responses to his matrimonial advertisement from 165 girls. But since he cannot meet all of them in 10 days, he picks one from each sun sign to meet.
Asked why he didn't pick 12 different actresses for the 12 roles, Gowariker said at a press conference here: "If I had cast 12 different actresses, the audience would have wanted the fairest to win (Yogesh's hand) and thus beauty would have taken importance."
But he didn't want the choice of bride to be made on the basis of the beauty, he said.
