&quot;I am triple-qualified. I have done triple honours in Business, Finance and Economics. I have grown up wanting to be a banker, so studying finance was an automatic thing,&quot; the 23-year-old said.u00a0 <img alt="" src="http://www.mid-day.com/imagedata/2012/may/Parineeti-Chopra.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 620px; " /> &quot;I went to England and studied in Manchester Business School. Then I went to London because I wanted to work in an investment bank. But recession hit in 2009 and I wasn&#39;t getting jobs and it was not because of my qualification, it was because they couldn&#39;t give jobs to who were not British nationals,&quot; she added. That&#39;s when she had to return home. &quot;I came back to India and I wanted to do an internship for six months and I happened to come to the Yash Raj Films (YRF) office and I was very intrigued by this huge studio in Mumbai. So I said let me try,&quot; said Parineeti, who made her debut with YRF&#39;s &quot;Ladies vs Ricky Bahl&quot; in 2011. Parineeti, who happens to be actress Priyanka Chopra&#39;s cousin, says her close proximity with the profession increased her interest in acting. &quot;I used to work with actors at very close quarters. My respect for the profession increased, I fell in love with acting, I loved what actors used to do and I always felt like I could do this and I could do this well. So I decided to become an actor,&quot; she said. In &quot;Ishaqzaade&quot;, Parineeti is paired opposite filmmaker Boney Kapoor&#39;s son Arjun.u00a0
