Priyanka Chopra may be nearly a decade old in the industry but she is yet to make a dent into the coveted Yash Chopra camp. On the other hand, her much younger cousin, Parineeti Chopra who harboured no filmi ambitions, until a year ago, is already a YRF girl. Her debut in Ladies v/s Ricky Bahl not just made her a favourite in the Chopra camp but also fetched her every debutante award that was given out last year. Amidst such a situation, talks of sibling rivalry wouldn’t seem unnatural, even though the picture painted in front of the media is rather contradictory — Piggy Chops seems to be going all out to promote Parineeti in her next film Ishaqzaade.
But the drama doesn’t end here. A source says, “Now Parineeti has been signed to play the female lead opposite Shahid Kapoor in YRF’s next venture.” This seems to have dampened PC senior’s spirits a little. “Despite hit films and a spate of top brand endorsements, YRF has still not considered her for any of their ventures,” adds the source.
First YRF, and now Shahid. When it rains it pours — as Priyanka is learning the hard way.
