Bollywood often revolves around hits and flops. Not every movie become a success, and over the years the industry has seen significant changes. Following pandemic, many films struggled at the box office, and also the rise of South cinema left a noticeable impact on Bollywood. However one thing remains constant- once a star always a star. This brings us to an actress who, despite facing a series of flops, has worked with Bollywood’s biggest names and continues to maintains her star status. We are talking about none other than Parineeti Chopra.
In 2011, Parineeti Chopra made an impressive debut with romantic-comedy film Ladies vs Ricky Bahl and also won the Filmfare award for the best actress. Her second release was action romantic drama Ishaqzaade in 2012 alongside Arjun Kapoor. The film was a blockbuster and Chopra received a special mention at Filmfare awards. Her other two films Shuddh Desi Romance in 2013 and Hasee Toh Phasee in 2014, were also commercially successful.

But then there came a downfall in Parineeti’s career where she starred in series of 9 flops, including Daawat-e-Ishq (2014), Kill Dil (2014), Meri Pyaari Bindu (2017), Namaste England (2018), Jabariya Jodi (2019), Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar (2021), Saina (2021), Code Name: Tiranga (2022), and Mission Raniganj (2023). However, in 2024, she made a comeback with Imtiaz Ali’s directorial Chamkila alongside Diljit Dosanjh. The Netflix-starrer received tremendous response from the audience and critics. Parineeti was widely praised for her performance and her chemistry with Diljit Dosanjh was much appreciated.
In fact, in an interview, Parineeti revealed that she was impressed with Chamkila’s script so much that she rejected Sandeep Vanga Reddy’s Animal (2023), starring Ranbir Kapoor, Bobby Deol and Rashmika Mandanna. The actress was offered Rashmika’s role in the film, but she turned it down due to scheduling conflict with her film Chamkila. However, Animal went on to become a massive hit, grossing Rs 900 crore globally. Parineeti has no regrets, as the decision led her to find love with her then-partner, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and Member of Parliament, Raghav Chadha
In a show called Aap Ki Adalat, Parineeti referred to that time period when she and Raghav used to meet during the shooting of Chamkila. Their romantic connection turned into something much deeper and the couple got married on September 24, last year in a private ceremony at The Leela Palace, Udaipur.
