Priyanka Chopra, born 18 July 1982, is a two-time Filmfare Award-winning actress. After winning the title of Miss India World and later becoming Miss World 2000, Priyanka has become one of the most successful and popular actresses in the industry.
Priyanka was crowned Miss India World and later Miss World in 2000. After winning the title, Priyanka became an actress. She first acted in a Tamil film Thamizhan and then moved on to Bollywood. In 2003, her first Bollywood film, The Hero: Love Story of a Spy released and won her good reviews.
