Priyanka Chopra’s recent three movie deal with UTV has undoubtedly brought her commercial success and a fat paycheck to boot, but the 24-year-old has yet to make her mark as an actor.

In contrast, Vidya Balan, 25, has repeatedly made her mark as an actor in commercially successful films such as Parineeta, Lage Raho Munnabhai and Guru.

Priyanka, seems to understand that her status as a much sought after young actor maybe short lived unless she can stand up to the completion from the likes of Vidya Balan and Kareena Kapoor.

“I would like to be known as Priyanka the actor; as someone who can play any role with ease,” she told TOI in a recent interview.

Pretty Pragmatic Priyanka, additionally has an open mind on what she should or should not be doing. She understands that success will come to her not because of the genre or the director of her films but her ability to come good on a challenging assignment.

“What matters is the script and the character. If I feel that the story is powerful enough, I would go for it. Even if a director offers me a movie with exactly five scenes or it’s a blink-and-miss role, I wouldn’t think twice before accepting it provided it’s something challenging and never been done before.”

As a former Miss World, Priyanka has the intelligence and training to say the right things, but it remains to be seen whether she has the talent to walk her talk.
