Priyanka Chopra is all geared up for the release of her upcoming Hollywood debut movie, ‘Baywatch’, alongside Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron. Priyanka will be seen portraying the main antagonist in the film, Victoria Leeds, which will hit the silver screens on 26th May.

Talking about the film, PeeCee recently said, “I loved ‘Baywatch’ so much growing up. It was the quintessential American dream. All those beautiful people in bathing suits, running slo-mo on the beaches — amazing!”

She further spoke about how her parents have always supported her and believed in her dreams. “I like to find my own way. My parents always encouraged me. They were like: ‘You got you.’ I think my inherent sense of confidence comes from that,” asserted the actress. She further talked about how being an outsider, she initially had no idea what it takes to be an actor, “Coming from academics, like an idiot, I was like, Oh, it’s just pretty people. You’ve got to wear lovely outfits and say a few lines. How hard can this be?” Boy, was I surprised? I just kind of went on set and fell and dusted myself off, and learned, and then fell again and figured it out.”

When quizzed about her love life, PeeCee said, “I’m not someone who looks for love. I don’t believe in making it happen. My life has been shaped by so many serendipitous moments so far, I feel like, why screw with a good thing?”
