Following her statement of being pushed to the corner in the film industry in India, Priyanka Chopra has made another revelation about her early days in the movies. The actress, who has been busy promoting Citadel and Love Again, recalled the time when a director wanted to see her ‘underwear’ while shooting a stripping scene for a project. She said that it was really a “dehumanizing moment".
Speaking to The Zoe Report, Priyanka recalled, “This may have been 2002 or ’03… I’m undercover, I’m seducing the guy - obviously that’s what girls do when they’re undercover. But I’m seducing the guy and you have to take off one piece of clothing (at a time). I wanted to layer up. The filmmaker was like, No, I need to see her underwear. Otherwise why is anybody coming to watch this movie?”

She continued, “He didn’t say it to me. He said it to the stylist in front of me. It was such a dehumanizing moment. It was a feeling of, ‘I’m nothing else outside of how I can be used, my art is not important, what I contribute is not important.’” She said that she walked off the film two days later. “I just couldn’t look at him every day.”
Most recently, Priyanka Chopra was seen in Love Again with Sam Heughan and Celine Dion. The finale of her Prime Video show Citadel with Richard Madden is up for this week.
