EXCLUSIVE: Nobody Can be Ajay Devgn, Unfair to Compare - Priyanka Chopra
Ever since the first trailer of Priyanka Chopra's Jai Gangaajal released, people have been excited and curious to watch the actress in the cop avatar performing some dhamakedar action and churning some whistle-worthy dialogues.
With the movie all set to release this week, we caught up with PeeCee, who is in Miami shooting for her Hollywood debut Baywatch.
Ask Priyanka, if she is also excited just like us to see her dabangg cop avatar on the big screen and she admits, "I am very excited for the movie to release. It is an exciting and a relevant film and I am happy I got to be a part of the movie. The USP of Jai Gangaajal is that it has a dhamakedar story with relevant debates, which are happening in the country. It talks about feminism, farmer suicides, corruption told by a bold filmmaker like Prakash Jha who is always known for his point of views."
With Piggy Chops doing some real action in the movie, we can't resist but ask her how did she prepare herself for the role?
"I think my characters from Don, Drona, Mary Kom prepared me for any kind of action, whether it was Quantico or Jai Gangaajal. I am quite well-versed with action because I have done so much of it in the past. Shyam Kaushal and I have worked together before but still we used to do some rehearsals for this one. The action in the movie is very raw and real and not fashionable," she quips.
Given that Jai Gangaajal is a sequel to Ajay Devgn starrer Gangaajal that released back in 2003, there are bound to be comparisons. Probe Priyanka what is her opinion about this and she clarifies, "Not at all yeah! Nobody can be Ajay Devgn and it is unfair to make comparisons. They are totally different characters. I am happy that Prakash Jha thought that I was bold enough to take ahead the legacy. I hope I have live up to it."
Directed by Prakash Jha, Jai Gangaajal releases on March 4, 2016.
