Udta Punjab’s deep influence on Priyanka’s film Sarvann!

International actress Priyanka Chopra is thrilled about her home production Sarvann. The film based in Punjab, is about an NRI boy played by Amrinder Gill, coming to India to connect to his true roots. In an interview with a famous tabloid, Priyanka's mother Madhu Chopra disclosed that the inspiration behind the film was Udta Punjab.

She told, "It was disturbing (Udta Punjab). There have also been continued reports about how the youth of Punjab is going ashtray from their own identity. Priyanka has made a much needed, impactful film." 

She further added, "The film doesn't have those typical Punjabi embellishments of bhangra songs and Punjabi-style weddings. But it conveys a hard-hitting message amid a very engaging story."

Priyanka Chopra’s next venture is a Sikkimese-Nepalese film named Paua!

International diva Priyanka Chopra is now a global star. But she wants to spread the reach of regional cinema across the nation. After producing a Bhojpuri movie Bam Bam Bol Raha Hai Kashi and a Marathi movie Ventilator, Priyanka's third endeavor is a Punjabi film titled Sarvann, which is set to release next week and has a special shabad sung by her late father, Dr. Ashok Chopra.

Now as per news in a tabloid, Priyanka is all set to roll out her next endeavor. During her India visit last week, she shared with a daily, “I will be announcing five, small-budget, content-driven, path-breaking movies in other languages this year. I want to tell as many stories as possible using local talent speaking in regional tongues." 

Priyanka's latest regional venture is a Sikkimese-Nepalese movie titled Paua which translates to Guest. Seemingly, the movie will revolve around two young children who get separated from their parents at the time of an unrest at the Indian border. Priyanka and her mother Madhu Chopra are roping in local talent from Nepal and Sikkim.

Presently, Ms. Chopra is all set to attend the 74th Golden Globe Awards on January 8 in Los Angeles. She is one of the presenters at the show, together with Leonardo DiCaprio, Drew Barrymore, Matt Damon, Nicole Kidman and Mandy Moore. 

I started with nothing, no support, a complete newcomer to even Mumbai city, reveals Priyanka Chopra!

Priyanka Chopra began her journey in bollywood with no film industry links and has won global appreciation due to her talent. Actress Priyanka Chopra tells she is grateful to fans for putting her "in a position" where she is "used to being the face on a poster". But she wants to do more.

The actress also told that whatever she has achieved is due to her own hard work, "without the help and support of anybody else". 

"I started with nothing, no support. A complete newcomer to even Mumbai city, not even the movie industry. I didn't even know anyone. So I kind of did all that I did on my own without the help and support of anybody," Priyanka told. 

"The love and affection I have got from viewers around the world kind of gave me the strength to do that. They have put me in a position where I am used to being the face on a poster. I don't want to settle for that."

Priyanka was crowned Miss India and went on to win the Miss World title at age 17. Her Bollywood debut came in 2003 with "The Hero: Love Story of a Spy". 

After that there was no looking back.

The actress made waves with international singles like "In my city" and "Exotic" before heading to the international TV space as Alex Parrish in "Quantico", which launched in 2015.

The actress is presently seen in "Quantico" Season 2, which is aired in India on Star World and Star World. She will soon make her Hollywood debut with "Baywatch". 

"Sarvann", a Punjabi film, is Priyanka's second production venture under her banner Purple Pebble Pictures. Her first was "Ventilator" -- which released on November 4. 

"Sarvann" is co-produced by Vashu Bhagnani and stars Amrinder Gill. 

After Ventilator, Priyanka Chopra’s 'Sarvann' fulfills her long cherished goal!

International diva Priyanka Chopra, who divulged the first look of her debut Punjabi movie production "Sarvann", tells she is happy to see her "long cherished goal" become a reality. She also told the movie will be promoted extensively.

"Sarvann", starring Punjabi superstar Amrinder Gill, marks the second production association between Priyanka's Purple Pebble Pictures and Vashu Bhagnani's Pooja Films.

"This is a long cherished goal that is seeing fruition and we have many plans for the film's promotion across the world. We're very proud to work with such an amazing team to present this wonderful story," Priyanka told in a statement.

Amrinder Gill also posted the poster of the movie to his huge fan base and is already getting an enthusiastic response.

He told, "It is time that Punjabi films get the recognition they deserve. With 'Sarvann', we have such a beautiful collaboration with the biggest names in Bollywood with a movie that I believe viewers will thoroughly enjoy."

Breaking language barriers and backing good stories is not new for Priyanka or Bhagnani, who earlier worked together for Marathi movie "Ventilator".

"Sarvann" director Karaan Guliani told, "Produced by an all-women team of Priyanka Chopra, Dr Madhu Chopra and Deepshika Deshmukh, 'Sarvann' is a coming-of-age story of a young man who discovers his true identity."

The movie is releasing on December 9.
