Priyanka Chopra, who is promoting her latest actioner Heads of State with Idris Elba and John Cena, recently opened up about everything from desi cravings to demanding her worth. Calling herself “A hundred per cent desi girl,” she added, “I have pickle with my sandwiches.” The actor revealed that she still gets her fix of Indian mangoes — Deseri and Langda — from friend and celebrity chef, Vikas Khanna. It is something that gives her a “sense of home.” In a clip shared on social media by fashion content creator Diet Sabya, PeeCee also talked about the action-comedy. She said that Elba and Cena are “the muscle in the movie.” When asked if she could pull off stunts like Tom Cruise or Akshay Kumar, she laughed and quipped, “Leave it to them.” Priyanka also addressed gendered pay disparities, and shared, “It is difficult to ask for your worth. You get called difficult to work with.”

With her screen debut on the way, Shanaya Kapoor is set to turn a contemporary to her best friends Ananya Panday and Suhana Khan. And the actor can’t stop gushing about the new chapter in the lives of the trio, who have been besties since they were infants. “It’s a very special feeling for the three of us,” Shanaya tells mid-day. The actor says it’s a beautiful feeling to fulfill their shared dream of working in the movies. “We’ve grown up together. We’ve dreamt together, and had heartbreaks together. But we’ve always stuck around with each other. And I think it’s just a very beautiful thing that finally our dreams are coming true and we’re at different stages of our careers right now. There’s just a lot of love among the three of us. There’s a lot of respect for what all of us are doing and a lot of support,” smiles the actor, who will be seen in Vikrant Massey-starrer Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan.
