Priyanka Chopra won best actress award at People's Choice Awards

As a producer, Priyanka wants to help regional cinemas as well

Actresses usually launch production houses to further boost their careers. Or to play in or make female-centric films. Priyanka Chopra claims her production house is an exception. 

Keeping it new... 
PC says, “I want to work with new talent. I want to do small films with new directors, new writers and new actors. I know that getting a foothold in the industry is tough and what a struggle it is.

And regional
She adds, "Currently, I am working on a few Hindi as well as regional scripts, with new talent. I should be announcing that in the next month or so. As of now, I have almost finalised three regional and two Hindi films. I will produce all kinds of regional cinema as well. I have always maintained that promoting regional cinema is important.”

About Madamjee
Her debut production Madamjee, directed by Madhur Bhandarkar, was stalled. The actress admits, “yes, and it because I have been spread so spread thin, it has been a little slower on the production front."

In conclusion
I was overworked in 2015, but it has been my choice. I shot for Bajirao Mastani and Quantico at the same time. I decided I wanted two active careers across two continents which are nowhere close to me, but which has been taking a bit of a toll on me. I’m always tired, travelling so much but it’s been a wonderful year. As an artist, it’s gratifying to know that your work has been appreciated for such different roles.”
