Priyanka Chopra walks out of a female lead project Jee Le Zaraa is the latest Bollywood news taking rounds.
Bollywood-turned-Hollywood actress and former Miss World, Priyanka Chopra is going through the best phase of her life both personally and professionally. She has been ruling the entertainment industry of India from 2003 to date. And now she is ruling the Hollywood platform as well equally since her debut through a TV show named Quantico that aired in year 2015.
She entered the American industry with a strong role and received immediate fame and success in the world of english celebrities with positive critics. Her debut in Hollywood was well publicized in Bollywood news as well. She then continued to explore both Bollywood and Hollywood subsequently. Many times she also mentioned on international platforms that she will continue working on good projects and demanding offers of the world of Hindi cinema.
She also married Nick Jonas, a famous pop singer from the Hollywood industry. And now the couple is already blessed with a daughter via surrogacy. She also debuted with Love Again as a main stream lead actress in America. Altough the flick didnt perform that well as expected. But Priyanka received positive critics for her work in the same.
As she holds a special connection with Hindi Cinema and after her successful Hollywood launch she even worked on around 3 to 4 projects in India. A few months ago she finalized a project named Jee Le Zaraa along with Alia Bhatt and Katrina Kaif. The trio was gonna rock on big screens. Just looking at the star cast one can say that it will be purely a feminist drama. And it is going to be a big-budget movie that will show a new side of Bollywood.
Farhan Akhtar is the director of the project and he’s already working on the pre-production stage. But as per the latest Bollywood news, Priyanka Chopra has decided to walk out of this feminist Drama. Actually, the reason for the Andaaz actress to walk out of this big project is the date issue. Many times the narrative got delayed for shootings because all the main leads are extremely busy with their professional schedules.
Further, Alia Bhatt’s pregnancy pushed the shootings further. And now again all the actresses are at the top game of their careers. And it’s not easy for anybody to lock them for a common schedule. Hence it is a tough job to cast them on one boat.
Now the makers are left with two leads and they need to cast a third one to start with the first step. Now the options on the list include Kiara Advani, Anushka Sharma, and Deepika Padukone. Let us see if Destiny has someone from the list. Nothing is confirmed yet from the makers about the replacement.
But if the news of the walkout of the Dostana actress is true then the project is already in a disturbance stage. Because Katrina Kaif and Alia Bhatt have already locked their dates on the shoots and if the third lead asks for changes then things will push to availability.
Further, there is another news in the Bollywood town that actress Katrina Kaif is expecting her first child with Vicky Kaushal. hence she might take a timely break from the silver screen. And if this news is true, then either the project will get shelved like Veere di Wedding. Or Farhan Akhtar will have to replace her with another female lead.
But in the past as well female projects gave a good success rate at the Box Office. Fashion in 2012 was the first feminist drama centered on the life of models and their life. It was well accepted at the Box Office. After that many movies were made without any strong male cast in the lead. And they made huge records at the ticket window.
Last but not least Jee Le Zaraa seems to be a strong female-centric drama. And director Farhan Akhtar can provide the wings to make the narrative fly high in the sky. It is a female-based Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara kind of life-motivating drama. Hence, it is a project with high hopes and a high rate of success chances at the Box office.
For the unversed, it is not the first time that the Don actress moved out of a project after signing it. In the past as well she was to play Katrina Kaif’s role in Salman Khan starrer Bharat. But she walked out of the project. And if she will continue to leave good scripts like this she may end up with minimal or no work in Bollywood.
We wish the team Jee Le Zaraa good luck with their journey to the ticket window.
