Priyanka Chopra has a super busy schedule ahead, what with several Hollywood projects and a highly-anticipated Hindi movie lined-up. The actress, in a recent interview with Vogue, opened up about how she felt after resuming work after a gap of 6 months. The actress told Vogue, "When the pandemic started, I was sleeping in, vegetating on the couch, binge-watching, not working out, eating whatever I wanted. I was like, 'This is going to be a vacation.' But when there was no end in sight, I understood that people were going to figure out how to work in spite of that." The actress, who shuffled between LA, London and Germany last year, added, "I spent six months at home feeling really safe with my family, and then Germany was the first time I left to go to work. I cried on the plane. I was terrified."

Priyanka Chopra was last seen in Netflix's The White Tiger, co-starring Adarsh Gourav and Rajkummar Rao. The film is based on Aravind Adiga's Booker Prize winning novel of the same name. The actress' upcoming projects include a comedy film with Mindy Kaling, Amazon's Citadel and Sangeet Project. The actress recently announced a Hollywood film with Sam Heughan and Celine Dion. She will also star in Farhan Akhtar's directorial project Jee Le Zaraa with Katrina Kaif and Alia Bhatt. She recently launched a haircare brand called Anomaly Haircare.
