Priyanka Chopra, who is busy shooting for her Hollywood projects -
A Kid Like Jake and
Isn't It Romantic?, was in Mumbai last month to spend some quality time with family and friends. It was reported that she was in India to finalise the lead actor of
Gustakhiyan, which is to be directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali. However, her mother Madhu Chopra dismissed the reports in an interview with news agency PTI and said, "I have not seen any paper work or documents so I can't say anything (of Priyanka working with Mr Bhansali).
Priyanka has no time this year to do a Hindi film. If he is making it this year then Priyanka is definitely not doing it."
Priyanka Chopra's last Bollywood venture was Prakash Jha's
Jai Gangaajal.
