Priyanka Chopra is one of the few Indian stars to succeed in Hollywood. However, her journey was not easy. Behind the glamour, Chopra faced significant challenges as she transitioned from Bollywood to Hollywood.
Speaking on The Ok Sweetie Show, her longtime manager Anjula Acharia shared the early struggles Chopra faced. Despite her huge popularity in India, Chopra had to start almost from scratch in Hollywood.
“She had to reintroduce herself. Imagine being a superstar in one country and nobody knows you in another,” Acharia said. She recalled meeting assistants in small offices and cafes while Chopra humbly introduced herself to industry insiders.
Acharia described these moments as emotionally hard. “I was dying inside seeing her struggle. But she was always humble and confident without ego,” she said. These experiences highlighted the reality of Hollywood struggles, even for internationally recognized stars.
Priyanka Chopra began her Hollywood career in 2015 after signing with a U.S. talent agency. She landed the lead role in ABC’s hit series Quantico, which helped her gain recognition. Following this, she appeared in films like Baywatch, The Matrix Resurrections, The White Tiger, and Heads of State.
Chopra also received praise for her performance in the 2022 spy thriller series Citadel, acting alongside Richard Madden. Her journey shows how Hollywood struggles can challenge even the most talented performers.
Her manager emphasized that Chopra’s success came from humility and persistence. “There were times we thought we were above certain tasks, but she insisted we do them. That attitude made all the difference,” Acharia added.
Priyanka Chopra’s story reflects the real side of Hollywood struggles. Fame alone does not guarantee an easy path. Hard work, patience, and adaptability remain essential for any actor trying to succeed in the global entertainment industry.
