Parineeti Chopra on getting any advantages of being Priyanka Chopra's sister in the industry: If being related to her could've helped my career, wouldn't have had flops

Parineeti Chopra, a prominent figure in Bollywood, has recently opened up about the challenges and realities of the film industry in an interview on Raj Shamani's podcast. She addressed the oft-mentioned topic of nepotism and its impact on her career. Parineeti is part of the Chopra family and is a cousin to global icon Priyanka Chopra Jonas, which has led to speculation about whether her familial connections have eased her path in the industry.

During the interview, Parineeti Chopra was quoted saying, "If being related to Priyanka Chopra could've helped my career, I wouldn't have had any flops in my career. I’ve seen such lows in the last 10 years." This statement sheds light on the fact that success in Bollywood isn't guaranteed by connections alone. Parineeti’s candor in discussing her setbacks reflects an often-overlooked truth about the industry – that every actor faces their share of challenges, regardless of their background.

Furthermore, Parineeti touched upon the broader issue of favoritism in Bollywood. She stressed that although initial opportunities might come more easily to those with connections, sustaining success requires personal effort. "Every person who has had some association in the industry is actually under a lot of pressure. You might get your first chance, first audition, first meeting, but after that, you're on your own and it’s more difficult to prove yourself," she explained.

Adding to her narrative of resilience and determination, Parineeti recently delivered a standout performance in the film 'Amar Singh Chamkila.' The movie is a musical biopic based on the life of the late Punjabi singer Amar Singh Chamkila. Released on Netflix, the film has garnered attention and praise for its storytelling and the powerful performances it features.
