International diva Priyanka Chopra got her first taste of
international success when she released her single In My City feat will.i.am.
Since then she has released two music videos - Exotic and I Can't Make You Love
Me. Post that, she sang in her movies too Chaoroin Mary Kom and Dil Dhadakne Do
title track. She made her Marathi language playback singing debut with Baba for
her home production Ventilator.
When a famous tabloid questioned Priyanka of her plans of
making music albums, she specified, "It went down the drain. I got really
tied up, and when Quantico happened, I wasn’t prepared for it. Nobody expected
it to run into so many episodes. We started with just 13 episodes and it blew
up, so a lot of my time was spent in doing Seasons 1 and 2 of the show and
Baywatch. Before that, Bajirao Mastani and Jai Gangaajal were happening at the
same time. I was caught up with all my acting projects, so I couldn’t do music
at that time."
Lately, brilliant musician Anoushka Shankar told that
international artistes are looking forward to collaborating with Indians
because they have realised we are tremendously talented. Agreeing with her, Priyanka
told, "Of course, that’s true. It’s been happening for years in movies.
Most American studios — Warner Brothers, Fox, etc, have set up here since
six-seven years. That’s an old, famous mandate. We have technicians and writers
coming down and working with us because we’re the biggest movie producing
industry in the world. If you include regional films, we make about 900 movies
a year. Our movies transcend borders. No other country can boast of something
like that. In terms of business, India makes so much sense. The music industry
is also realising that."
When questioned with whom she would like to collaborate for
a song, the global icon responded, "In America, Beyonce. I think she is
amazing and a suave performer. I admire her."
Priyanka even dosclosed that she has been missing riyaz due
to her hectic schedule. "I’m terrible at Riyaz. I think that is also half
the reason that I am scared of going back into the studio. I’m so nervous that
riyaz nahi kiya, what will happen? But it is such an amazing experience to
actually be in the studio and make music," she concluded.
