When Priyanka Chopra responded to Shah Rukh Khan's ‘Hollywood is boring’ remark: ‘Comfortable is boring to me’

Priyanka Chopra once made headlines, not for a role or a red carpet appearance, but for her fiery response to Shah Rukh Khan’s past remark on choosing comfort over Hollywood. In a resurfaced video, Priyanka Chopra took a stand for her journey and delivered what many online are calling a “savage” comeback.

While promoting her spy-thriller series Citadel earlier, Priyanka was asked about SRK’s quote: “Why should I go there (Hollywood)? I am comfortable here.” Without naming him directly, Priyanka’s reply was sharp yet composed.

“Comfortable is boring to me,” she said back then. “I am not arrogant, I am self-assured. I know what I am doing when I walk onto a set. I don’t need the validation of executives. I am willing to take auditions, I am willing to work. I do not carry the baggage of my success in one country when I walk into another country.”

This quote has gone viral, as fans interpret it as a pointed but elegant clapback to SRK’s earlier stance, especially given their shared history on and off-screen. The two were romantically linked during the filming of Don 2, though neither has ever publicly confirmed or denied the rumours.

Priyanka continued, “I am very professional, and if you ask people around me, I am known for my professionalism. I take pride in it. My father was in the military, and he taught me the value of discipline. He taught me not to take the value of what you have been given for granted.”

Priyanka Chopra’s transition from Bollywood to Hollywood has been significant. From Quantico to Matrix Resurrections, and now with upcoming projects like Heads of State—which stars John Cena, Idris Elba, and Jack Quaid—she has carved a unique space for herself on the global stage.

Priyanka Chopra is shooting for SS Rajamouli’s yet untitled film ‘SSMB29’ with Mahesh Babu and Prithviraj Sukumaran. Nobody has confirmed her return to Indian cinema but she has been spotted on the movie’s set and keeps sharing her videos and photos from the India visit. She is also busy promoting Heads of State with Idris Elba and John Cena.
