In her head, a 2.0 version of Parineeti Chopra has taken shape. The actor says her upcoming movies — be it Sooraj Barjatya’s Uunchai, or Imtiaz Ali’s Chamkila — are her attempt to reimagine her career. “The 2.0 version started with The Girl on The Train [2021], Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar [2021] and Saina [2021]. I wanted to get past the plateau that I had reached in my head. [The films’] fate doesn’t matter. I want people to expect differently of me. I want to shock the audiences. When a director says, ‘Yeh role aap aasani se kar lengi’, I decline that film. I don’t want to be the obvious casting choice,” she says.
