Priyanka’s World Record!
Priyanka Chopra plays 12 different characters in her forth coming film What’s your Rashee. She is the only actress in the world to do as many as 12 roles in one film.
So, Priyanka is ready to list herself in the Guinness Book of World Records for this achievement.
Ashutosh Gowariker’s What’s Your Rashee? Is no doubt opening new dimensions for the actress. Priyanka quips “If this does happen, it will be phenomenal. I’m overjoyed and honoured to be a part of this record-breaking film.”
Producer Sunita Gowariker says “Priyanka has not only played 12 different roles, but breathed life into 12 distinct characters without the aide of any prosthetics.
She says further, “Few people realize how difficult a challenge it is. This we gauged when we spoke to the Guinness officials. No actor has ever played so many different roles in cinema of any language. So it truly is a world record.”
Her close competitors are veteran Kamal Hassan with 10 roles in Dashavataram, Sanjeev Kumar and Sivaji Ganeshan with 9 roles each in Naya Din Nayi Raat and Navarathiri, respectively.
Talking about Hollywood, Eddie Murphy has done seven roles in The Nutty Professor and 8 roles in its sequel. Eric Idle has done 7 characters in his film Monty Python and The Holy Grail (1975). Similarly, Alec Guinness has eight roles in his Kind Hearts and Coronets (1949).
