Priyanka Chopra is a famous Indian actress, known for her exciting roles in movies from India (like Bollywood and Tamil films) and Hollywood. She started her acting journey in 2002 with a Tamil movie called Thamizhan. The next year, she made her big Bollywood debut in the spy thriller The Hero: Love Story of a Spy.

Priyanka quickly became a star! In 2003, her role in the hit romance Andaaz helped her win the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut, which is a big award for new actors. In 2004, she was in the fun romantic comedy Mujhse Shaadi Karogi. She also got a lot of praise for her amazing role in the thriller Aitraaz, where she played a character with a negative role. This earned her another important award.

Priyanka starred in many films in 2005, including Waqt and Bluffmaster!. In 2006, she was in two of the biggest movies of the year: the superhero film Krrish and the action thriller Don. These movies helped her become even more popular.

Even though she had a few tough years in 2007 and 2008, her role in the drama Fashion in late 2008 changed everything. She played a model facing challenges and won the National Film Award for Best Actress and the Filmfare Award for Best Actress. These are two of the highest honors in Indian cinema! In 2009, she starred in the thriller Kaminey and played twelve different characters in the romantic comedy What's Your Raashee?. She also won another Filmfare Award for her role in the 2011 film 7 Khoon Maaf.

Priyanka then starred in some of her most successful movies. These included action films like Don 2 (2011), Agneepath (2012), and Krrish 3 (2013). She also starred in the comedy-drama Barfi! (2012). All these movies were huge hits! She was especially praised for playing an autistic woman in Barfi! and the famous boxer Mary Kom in the movie about her life, Mary Kom.

From 2015 to 2018, Priyanka became even more famous around the world. She starred as Alex Parrish in the American TV show Quantico. This was a big deal because she was the first South Asian woman to be the main star of an American TV series! In 2015, she also appeared in the comedy-drama Dil Dhadakne Do and won an award for her role as Kashibai in the historical film Bajirao Mastani, which is one of the highest-grossing Indian films ever.

In 2016, Priyanka also started producing movies, like the Marathi comedy-drama Ventilator, which was very successful. She has also starred in several Hollywood movies, such as Baywatch (2017) and Isn't It Romantic? (2019). Later, she was praised for her role as a protective mother in the drama The Sky Is Pink (2019), which she also helped produce. More recently, she has been in films like The White Tiger and The Matrix Resurrections (both from 2021). In 2023, she starred in the action thriller TV series Citadel.
