Priyanka Chopra and Vishal Bhardwaj to team up after 7 years

Speculations are rife that after signing Ali Abbas Zafar’s Bharat with superstar Salman Khan, Priyanka Chopra might give her nod to another Bollywood project very soon. Prodigious filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj reveals that he is contemplating to helm a Hindi adaptation of Shakespeare’s classic novel Twelfth Night for which he might approach Priyanka, once the script is ready.

Talking about PC and his next project, Bhardwaj says, “First of all, she is a huge star. Everyone knows that. But she is a very real person also. When you are with her, you don’t feel that Priyanka is a star. I feel Priyanka is my friend because, with her, it’s always like friends. Priyanka is now a huge international star; I met her 3-4 times in New York. But she’s still the same, and we both are looking forward to working with each other. Most probably, I’ll do my Twelfth Night with her.”


Bhardwaj, who last helmed Rangoon (2017), directed Priyanka Chopra in the 2011 movie, 7 Khoon Maaf. If things fall into place, they may reunite after a long gap of seven years.

Varma said films that set new standards are often sidelined by industry insiders who feel unable to match them. He said this was the case with “Dhurandhar”, which is set in Karachi’s Lyari town and directed by Aditya Dhar, known for “Uri: The Surgical Strike”.
