Priyanka Chopra is often seen actively taking part in creating awareness. On one hand, there is no stopping her in making it big around the globe, on another hand, she is actively seen spending time with children for some or the other cause.

Cultures are so lovely.so different yet so similar. Kalam is arabic for pen and it’s kalam in Urdu/Hindi too. We found that funny. Since the kids were learning English I thought Pencil may be appropriate… #MissionForChildren #ChildrenUprooted #PCInJordan #ChildrenOfSyria @unicef

She is a goodwill ambassador for UNICEF and was seen spending a good time with kids in Amman, Jordan. As per reports and statistics, at present, there are 1.3 million Syrians in Jordan and the education system there is trying their level best to fit these children. But this task ain’t that easy. The Jordan government is in need of aids to educate these kids. Priyanka visited Jordan to meet these kids and raise awareness about the issue among others.

A class full of future doctors, engineers, police officers, teachers. What breaks my heart is they can’t even access proper schools as refugee kids… how will they access higher education?? These hopes and dreams.. where do they stand in the reality of their world? The government schools in Jordan have added evening classes and 200 schools to accommodate the growing number of Syrian children which is approximately 120000 children..But it’s never enough. The world needs to help. We need to help. PLS GO TO www.unicef.org and DONATE whatever you can… let’s make this a collective #MissionForChildren #ChildrenUprooted #PCInJordan #ChildrenOfSyria @unicef

Naturally, she took to social media sharing her experience and talking about the condition there. She also insisted people to do their bit and donate whatever possible to make a difference.

This is Ammar(5), Ayat(8), Sulaiman (5 months) Wardshan(9) and they have an elder brother Saleh(10) who works at a grocery store to help supplement the family income, for only 2 Jordanian Dinar (that’s less than $3 USD.) Their father is a day laborer. Sulaiman needs a 2nd surgery because he has a clot in his nose. The family moved from Syria to Jordan 5 years ago. When I asked their mother what would be her wish…considering the war hasn’t ended, she said “if we can’t go home all I want is for my kids to get an education so they can fend for themselves when they are older and help rebuild Syria. We are blessed, we have enough to survive…others have much less.” They didn’t even have furniture in their home. The largesse of heart and compassion she had through her tears moved me to pieces.  PLS GO TO www.unicef.org and DONATE whatever you can… let’s make this a collective #MissionForChildren #ChildrenUprooted #PCInJordan #ChildrenOfSyria @unicef

But it looks like someone wasn’t happy about her work and decided to point it out. A Twitter fellow named Ravindra Gautam who also happens to be a film critique mocked the actress for her initiative and said she should focus more on Indian kids than other. He tweeted ” I would request @priyankachopra that do visit rural areas of India where malnourished kids waiting for food. #MissionForChildren.”

However, this isn’t the first time that she is targeted and taunted for her opinions on social media. It goes without saying that PeeCee is one tough girl and gave it back to the guy just like a boss.

She replied saying, “Ive worked w/ @UNICEFIndia for 12 yrs&visited many such places. What have u done @RavindraGautam_ ?Y is 1 childs prob less imp than another?”

Well, that’s indeed the right thing to say and we hope Gautam is already regretting tweeting that out. Priyanka often doesn’t take anything seriously when made fun of, but we totally love the way she gives it back to the haters whenever needed!

At present, the gorgeous diva is concentrating on creating awareness, raising funds and supporting the children of war, in whatever way possible. Earlier she also visited Zimbabwe where she met kids who were sexually abused.

After they taught me their dance moves I showed them one of mine.. it’s called the “thumka” #DanceParty #EndViolence #UNICEF #thistimeforafrica #SafePark

It is obvious that she feels strongly for this initiative and is doing her best to make a difference, we believe it was the discrimination bit that she didn’t appreciate at all. And we totally support her for it.

All strength to PeeCee for doing such great work!

She impressed the audience in the West with her powerful performance in “Quantico” and actor Priyanka Chopra said she took up the American TV series to pave the way for artistes like her who come from different ethnicities.

The 35-year-old actor was speaking at TIFF Soiree’s Share Her Journey segment organised by Toronto International Film Festival.

The snippets of the tete-a-tete were tweeted from TIFF’s official account.

“When the opportunity came my way (to work in America), I saw it as an opportunity to break the ceiling for actors that look like me.

“Once I was asked not to be a part of a cast because I was too ethnic… I didn’t realise how hard it was until I came to North America,” Priyanka said.

The actor said her role of FBI agent, Alex Parish was “not written for an Indian girl”.

She added the ABC show, which has been renewed for a third season, “started a conversation about what terrorists are (supposed to) looks like”.

Talking about her journey in films, Priyanka said there was a time when filmmakers dropped her due to difference in opinion, which came with her being a woman.

“I’ve had people take away films from me because I might not have agreed with them,” she said.

The actor also discussed her critically-acclaimed films such as “Fashion” and “Mary Kom”.

“‘Fashion’ had many things that a female character wouldn’t do (in a Bollywood film) – drinking, smoking. It had truth. (It) gave women the power to talk about different facets of their lives. I (became) a pioneer for women of my generation… “‘Mary Kom’ was a challenging movie, which excited me even more. Give me something difficult and I’ll always say yes,” she said.

Priyanka won the National Film Award for best actress for the Madhur Bhandarkar-directed film.

On the red carpet of the 42nd annual film festival, the actor praised “Wonder Woman” director Patty Jenkins for helming a studio superhero film.

“It’s not easy’ when you come into entertainment being a woman. You’ve got to pull your socks up for a fight. No one’s going to hand it out to you, whether it’s credit, whether it’s parts, whether it is the ability to make movies. “You can understand how hard and few and far between these opportunities are. But it’s got to take people like us to stand out there, dig our heels in and say we’re not going to stand for it anymore,” Priyanka told CBC Toronto.

The actor was present at the festival for the screening of her maiden Sikkimese production, “Pahuna”.

TIFF runs will run till September 17.

535003-pc-dp-srk-skDeepika Padukone and Priyanka Chopra are the only two actresses who feature in Forbes magazines list of top 10 Bollywood’s highest paid 2017 list, which is led by “Raees” star Shah Rukh Khan.

Deepika ranks sixth in the list with earnings of $11 million, while Priyanka shares the seventh spot with Deepika’s beau Ranveer Singh, with earnings of $10 billion. Both actresses have made their Hollywood debuts.

As for Shah Rukh, he has left his contemporaries Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar and Aamir Khan behind, despite getting a lukewarm response with his last few films like “Fan”, “Dilwale” and “Jab Harry Met Sejal”. His endorsement deals and profitable productions helmed by his banner Red Chillies Entertainment, helped him make $38 million between June 1, 2016, and June 1, 2017, before fees and taxes, reports forbes.com.

Not far behind him is Salman, who is ranked second with earnings of $37 million in the last one year.

Salman gained profits from the success of “Sultan” and “retains a slew of advertisements and a not-for-profit line of clothing and jewellery that benefits his Being Human Foundation”.

The Khans are followed by National Award winner Akshay, whose golden run at the Indian box office doesn’t seem to stop anytime soon.
The “Khiladi” star is listed at the third position at earnings of $35.5 million, with his hit films like “Rustom”, “Jolly LLB 2”, “Naam Shabana” and “Toilet: Ek Prem Katha”.

Shah Rukh, Salman and Akshay are also included in Forbes magazine’s World’s Highest Paid Actors 2017 list and ranked at eighth, ninth and 10th position respectively.

With the unprecedented success of “Dangal”, Aamir is ranked fourth in the list with collections of $12.5 million.

Actor Hrithik Roshan has rounded off the top five with earnings of $11.5 million. Hrithik’s 2016 film “Mohenjo Daro” bombed at the box office, however, the actor bounced back with “Kaabil” in 2017.

Megastar Amitabh Bachchan ($9 million) and actor Ranbir Kapoor ($8.5 million) have been ranked ninth and 10th in the list, reports forbes.com.

Earnings estimates are based on data from Box Office India, Box Office Mojo and IMDB, as well as interviews with industry insiders.
Together, Bollywood’s 10 highest paid actors banked a cumulative $183 million between June 1, 2016, and June 1, 2017.

The exotic beauty Priyanka Chopra is all over our timelines. There is not a day when we don’t hear about her making headlines. From ruling our hearts to making it big in Hollywood, she has done it all.

Looking at the amount of work she can pull off, we just wonder is there anything in this world that she can’t do? Be it acting, singing, producing, or dancing—you pick up a quality and we bet that she can excel in anything.

And now the gorgeous actress has reunited with popular singer Bryan Adams for a social cause. She has joined the iconic ‘Summer of 69′ singer for Hear The World campaign and the two even gave us a sneak peek of what they are doing.

No one can escape the wrath of Twitter. You can be an international star, but people will find anything and everything to criticize and troll you. This is exactly what happens to Priyanka Chopra, and that too on a daily basis it seems like.

She is taking over the world with not just her acting skills, but also her fashion sense. She can pull off anything, literally. But, she can also get trolled for anything as well.

A post shared by Priyanka Borkar (@hairbypriyanka) on Jul 24, 2017 at 9:50pm PDT

Recently, a picture of the actress from an old photoshoot surfaced online where she's wearing a red knit dress, along with heavy and bold eye makeup and red lipstick. But, the biggest giveaway of the picture is the blonde wig she is sporting. Apparently, she had this look for a photoshoot back in 2015 for L'Officiel India.

People on Twitter took the picture and ran with it, referencing everything, from ‘Game Of Thrones' to Lady Gaga to even Raadhe Maa in the process.

Popular Kannada actress Sanjjanaa Galrani, whose nude video from film ‘Dandupalya 2’ leaked online, claims the clip has been morphed.

Sanjjanaa took to Twitter to release a statement. She wrote, “I will not shoot 100 percent nude even if it is a James Bond film, coming in from strong Indian culture I keep in mind my limitations.”

Kannada actress Sanjjanna Galrani's nude video from 'Dandupalya 2' leaked online
‘Dandupalya 2’ team has denied the video leak being a publicity stunt

The clip is a scene from the film that shows the heroine being stripped by a police officer played by actor P Ravishankar.

The controversial sequence, however, has been deleted from the final cut of the movie after Regional Censor Board objected to it. The movie released last Friday in some parts of India. 

Questions were raised if this was yet another publicity stunt. But ‘Dandupalya 2’ team has denied it being a promotional gimmick. Sanjjanaa has said that the film is already doing well at the box office and doesn’t need a promotional stunt.

The team is clueless as to how the deleted scene made its way online.

While speaking to Times of India, Sanjjanaa said, “Yes. I shot for it, but I was not nude. I have pictures that show my body parts covered up with a towel that were clicked in my caravan. What is eventually seen in the film is the result of computer colour grading, which was made to show the scene in that fashion.”

“My character, Chandri, is a victim of sexual abuse in this scene, so this was meant to showcase that. I am appalled at how the scene has been circulated by people and has been shown repeatedly on media platforms. It shocks me that people want to share content like this among themselves,” she told the newspaper.

“I thought it would be shot aesthetically, but the way it has been picturised is downright vulgar. The fault is in the making. It might have been shot like that keeping the mass audience in mind,” added Sanjjanaa.

Before being dragged into this controversy, the actress made headlines for the wrong reasons. Sanjjanaa was at loggerheads with the makers of the film for apparently cutting down her role in the movie and giving more importance to Pooja Gandhi. She ended up boycotting the movie promotions.

The film also stars Makarand Deshpande and Ravi Kale.

The Kannada film is a sequel to 2012 movie ‘Dandupalya’ and revolves around a criminal gang from Dandupalya, a place near Hoskote in Bengaluru. The gang had forced the makers to change the title of the film to ‘2’ from ‘Dandupalya 2’. 

‘Dandupalya 3’ is set for August release.

deepikapadukoneActress Deepika Padukone says she is honoured to be a part of the Academy of Motion Picture of Arts & Sciences for its “Class of 2017”.
“Honoured to be a new Academy member. Class of 2017,” Deepika tweeted on Wednesday.

Deepika made her debut in Hollywood with “xXx: Return of Xander Cage” earlier this year.

Last month, the Academy invited a record 744 members from 57 countries to its governing body, surpassing the 683 invitations issued in 2016.

Indian actors like Amitabh Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Aamir Khan and Priyanka Chopra were also mentioned in the list.

The Academy was under pressure to diversify its membership for several years, the criticism reaching a crescendo in 2015, when all 20 acting nominees were white, starting the #OscarsSoWhite controversy. The Academy is doing damage control since then.

 Priyanka Chopra and Salman Khan
Priyanka Chopra and Salman Khan

Priyanka Chopra’s absense from IIFa Awards 2017 was quite surprising and it did not go unnoticed from the prying eyes of the audiences and media. Priyanka, gave the reason that since she was celebrating her birthday and promoting her Marathi film as a producer, she decided to skip the 18th leg of IIFA Awards. According to a report in Mumbai Mirror, Piggy Chops did not attend the ceremony because she was offered less remuneration. Furthermore, the report stated that she was irked even further, when her remunaration was said to be less than that of Salman Khan.

The organizers wanted to Priyanka Chopra to perform, just the way she had performed last year and walked with an award, but talks failed through when she found out that she was offered lesser pay than a male superstar. Rumour has it that the male superstar in question is Salman Khan. At the IIFA press conference in New York, the actor had said, “I don’t receive awards, I just perform on stage. If they want me for such a bad performance that they are paying me for it, I’m more than happy.”

On the workfront, Priyanka Chopra will be next seen in two Hollywood films, ‘ A Kid Like Jake’ and ‘Isn’t It Romantic’?. Speculations are rife that she is being offered to play ‘Amrita Pritam’ in the biopic on poet Sahir Ludhianvi, a film which will be helmed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali.
