Priyanka Chopra and her former secretary call it a truce

Global icon Priyanka Chopra and her former secretary and manager Prakash Jaju have decided to call it a truce, ending their 15-year-long court battle. For the unversed, Prakash Jaju in 2004 had filed a lawsuit against his then star-client Priyanka Chopra for breach of contract. The duo had been fighting a long court battle for 15 years now. However, they have now decided to end the court case and move on.

A source close to the development reveals to an entertainment portal that the animosity between Priyanka Chopra and Prakash Jaju has faded with time. “Their bitterness and animosity have faded with time. Priyanka Chopra has moved on in life, far far ahead of where Jaju had left off. The last thing she wants is an arduous court battle in India. She took the peace offering and both parties have called off their legal battle.”

In 2014, Prakash Jaju had announced a film called 67 Days in which he was planning to reveal some interesting details about the actress’ personal life. The announcement had created a lot of stir in B-town. However, the project never got to see the light of the day.

Meanwhile, Priyanka Chopra is presently looking forward to the release of her comeback Hindi film The Sky Is Pink. Apart from playing the female lead in it, the actress is also co-producing the project along with Ronnie Screwvala and Siddharth Roy Kapoor.

Besides PC, The Sky Is Pink also stars Zaira Wasim and Farhan Akhtar in lead roles. Directed by Shonali Bose of Margarita with a Straw (2014), the film is set to roll into theatres on 10th October, 2019. Priyanka Chopra’s last Hindi film was Prakash Jha’s Jai Gangaajal (2016), which was a moderate box-office success.
