'It's great that after Fashion, my look is being noticed in Dostana as well. However, I know for myself that hard work was there in Drona or Love Story 2050 as well or for that matter even Don. It's just that currently we are talking only about Dostana and Fashion', says Priyanka with a straight face.
But her weight loss is quite apparent in Dostana?
Recently a television channel aired a programme in which a doctor held up one of Priyanka Chopra's old pictures and explained what kind of surgeries she might have undergone to get her recent sizzling look. This hasn't gone down too well with Priyanka and she says she might take legal action against the doctor or the channel.
"We might take some legal action. We are seeing if people are picking this up," Priyanka told After Hrs.
This former Miss World also says that she really gets upset hearing or seeing 'false news' about her.
"It does affect me. I feel sad that people who write such things do not understand that though I'm a celebrity for them but I'm someone's daughter, relative or neighbour. So, when they write such things about me or my personal life, which are not true, they fail to realise that it may affect my parents who might be reading what they wrote the next day," she says.
She adds, "I understand that we are celebrities and people want to know everything about us, but this is not right. You can't marry me off to someone one day, make me go through a break-up and even write that I have done a crime just because you want to make news."
Priyanka has also made news recently as some papers claimed that she and her Fashion co-star Kangana were not getting along well with each other. Apparently Kangana was not happy with Priyanka getting all the limelight.
"There is no truth behind this news. I have to deny this news now because people will keep on writing about it. People like these mirch masalas - two girls working together cannot be friends. I'm not saying that Kangana and I are back-slapping buddies, but we really get along well and she was tremendous in Fashion," says Priyanka.
These issues, notwithstanding, Priyanka has lots to smile as Fashion set the cash registers ringing and she was also appreciated for her performance. Now, she is now ready to set the screen on fire with Dostana.
'It's my luck that I was working on both Fashion and Dostana together', she informs, 'For the early part of Fashion, I had to put on some weight to depict the chubby look of a Chandigarh girl. Then for the Mumbai shoot of Fashion which showed my journey to the top as a supermodel, I had to loose weight. The look I acquired for Fashion also helped Dostana because I was training hard and fast acquiring a well toned physique.'
Dostana is her sixth release this year. Any fears? She laughs, 'Ask me. It has been a non-stop last few months for me. It's like waiting for your exam results to be out. Scary, but exciting.'
