Actors and actresses in Bollywood are reaching new heights every day with hit films. While many heroes and heroines are celebrated in the industry, there is one actress who has won the hearts of people not just in India but also in Hollywood. She started her journey with beauty pageants, and in no time, she began receiving film offers. Today, she is considered one of the highest-paid actresses in Bollywood. If you are guessing who we are talking about, then the actress in discussion is none other than Priyanka Chopra, aka our Desi Girl.
Priyanka’s career began in 2000 when she won the Miss World pageant. Later, in 2002, she made her Tamil debut opposite Thalapathy Vijay in the film Thamizhan. In 2003, Priyanka finally made her Bollywood debut with the film The Hero: Love Story of a Spy. Priyanka is a prominent name in both Bollywood and Hollywood, having starred in some of the finest web series and films, leaving fans in awe.
Over the years, Priyanka featured in various films, and many of them turned out to be huge hits, including Dil Dhadakne Do, Bajirao Mastani, Barfi, Don, Krrish 3, Mary Kom, and more. Gradually, Priyanka reduced her appearances in Bollywood films and moved to Hollywood.
However, now she is set to make a major comeback. According to reports, Priyanka has been roped in for SS Rajamouli’s movie, which will also feature Mahesh Babu.

The film marks Priyanka’s return to South cinema after more than 20 years. Bollywood Hungama had reported earlier this year that Priyanka has charged a whopping Rs 30 crore for the film, making it the highest fee ever charged by an Indian actress for a film.
A source said, “That’s why they took so long to announce her joining the project. She was not willing to compromise on her fee, and why should she? Why should only heroes get double-digit salaries in our films?”
This is not the first time the actress has charged a huge fee. Reports claim that she took Rs 41 crore for her Amazon Prime series Citadel.
Before Priyanka, it was Deepika Padukone who was one of the highest-paid Indian actresses, thanks to her Rs 20 crore fee for the film Kalki 2898 AD. Priyanka has given tough competition to Alia Bhatt, Katrina Kaif, Deepika Padukone, and many other actresses in the industry.
Priyanka married singer Nick Jonas, moved to Los Angeles, and has a net worth of Rs 650 crore.
