Global icon Priyanka Chopra currently holds the position as the second most followed celebrity on Instagram in India, trailing only behind cricketer, Virat Kohli. With an impressive count of 90.6 million followers, Priyanka's online presence is a testament to her widespread appeal and influence. However, Kohli commands a staggering 266 million followers, solidifying his status as a social media powerhouse. Priyanka's ascent to this notable position began upon her transition to Hollywood in 2015, marking the inception of her remarkable journey into the realm of global stardom.
Did you know amidst her vast global following, spanning not only India, but across the world, Priyanka Chopra revealed a fervent desire for a follow back from none other than Michelle Obama, the former First Lady of the United States on Instagram. This longing was revealed during a poignant moment on a Hollywood chat show back in 2023, where Chopra candidly shared her admiration. The 41-year-old actress gave a big shout out to Michelle Obama as the epitome of coolness, asserting her as one of the most remarkable individuals she has ever encountered in her life's journey.
However, Priyanka Chopra's upcoming project, The Bluff, is currently under the production supervision of renowned filmmakers the Russo Brothers, who are famous for Captain America: Civil War (2016), Avengers: Infinity War (2018), Avengers: Endgame (2019), Extraction (2020). Set against the backdrop of the 19th century, this period drama promises to take audiences away on a mesmerising journey through time. With filming scheduled to commence in June 2024, anticipation mounts as Chopra prepares to get herself into this compelling narrative.
This isn't Chopra's first foray into Hollywood; her successful filmography boasts memorable roles in blockbusters such as Quantico (2015), Baywatch (2017) and The Matrix Resurrections (2021), along with the delightful romantic-comedy Love Again (2023), ensuring her status as a versatile and accomplished actress on the global stage. She was last seen in Prime Video's Citadel (2023), opposite Richard Madden, who is famous for Game of Thrones (2011-2019).
After creating immense buzz with Citadel, Priyanka also has another action-thriller, Heads of State in her kitty next, where she will be seen opposite John Cena and Idris Alba.
