Biography:

Priyanka grew into a multi-talented lady finding her creative joys in singing, writing poetry and short stories, but never ever dreamt of entering the showbiz world. Incidentally her father too is a very good singer and Priyanka seems to have derived her singing talents from her father as she is more attached to him. Priyanka Chopra graduated from La Martiniere Girls' College in Lucknow. Prior to her graduation, she studied in several schools as her father; a serving officer in the Army was on constant move on army duties.

It was her father who sent Priyanka's photos to Femina Miss India pageant and the reluctant queen finally competed and won the Femina Miss India World title and later went on to win Miss World title in 2000. Soon the crowning beauty became the most sought after debutant in Bollywood with several big name movie deals coming by her way.

Priyanka Chopra began her movie debut with a Tamil film called "Thamizhan" in 2002 and followed it up with a Bollywood movie Andaaz" {2003} starring opposite Akshay Kumar and directed by Raj Kanwar. Making her screen presence felt strongly in "Andaaz", Priyanka won Filmfare's and Star Screen's Most Promising Newcomer award. She gave a commendable performance as a villain in "Aitraaz" {2004} and won all-round praise from critics and general public alike.

She acted in several other block buster movies like "Mujhse Shaadi Karogi" {2004} opposite Salman Khan, "Bluffmaster" {2005} opposite Abhishek Bachchan and Nana Patekar, "Don" {2006} opposite Shahrukh Khan and "Krish" {2006} opposite Hrithik Roshan, which indeed became the biggest hit of all time so far in Indian Cinema. She is also starring in the sequels "Krish 2" and "Don 2".
