Priyanka Chopra turned down a Hollywood offer for Bollywood

Priyanka Chopra may be a determined actress but she values where she started out from. Even though most Bollywood actresses would never give up on an opportunity to act in a Hollywood film, Priyanka turned down a Hollywood offer for Bollywood.

She was offered the chance to play an important role in the Hollywood film, Dawn of War. But she refused to do the role, simply because she chose to do Vishal Bhardwaj’s film, Saat Khoon Maaf.

According to sources, the dates of Saat Khoon Maaf and Dawn of War were both around the same time and Priyanka would have to allot the early April dates to either film.

She tried to work it out however she had no choice but to choose just one out of the two films. She immediately chose Saat Khoon Maaf over Dawn of War. She had been given a script of the Hollywood film while she was shooting for Siddharth Anand’s Anjaana Anjaani in the United States. So contrary to popular belief, she didn’t turn the film down because she didn’t like the script.

Director Tarsem Singh signed on Freida Pinto after Priyanka turned the film down. Freida will be starring opposite British actor Henry Cavill. At present, Priyanka is shooting in Gulmarg and Srinagar for Saat Khoon Maaf.
