Looks like even Bollywood’s biggest stars can outgrow roles! Director Anil Sharma recently spilled some juicy details about his bond with Priyanka Chopra and why they never collaborated again after The Hero.
In a candid chat, Sharma revealed that PC’s stardom skyrocketed so fast that he simply didn’t have a role worthy of her stature. “Priyanka itni badi star ho gayi thi, and unke layak koi film hi nahi thi,” he admitted.
The filmmaker also recalled how Priyanka almost left Bollywood due to a botched surgery affecting her complexion. Sharma, who saw her potential early on, recommended her to top filmmakers like Subhash Ghai. However, he insists her global success is purely her own doing.
Despite their professional paths not crossing again, Sharma shared that he and Priyanka still share a warm, family-like bond. “Whenever she spots me in a crowd, she comes straight to me,” he said.
