Priyanka Chopra is finally stepping back into Indian cinema after nearly six years, and the actress has opened up about what this comeback means to her. After spending the last few years working on international projects, Priyanka is now filming Varanasi, a big-budget Indian film directed by SS Rajamouli, where she stars opposite Mahesh Babu. The project marks an important moment in her career and signals a fresh chapter in her journey as an actor.
Balancing work cultures across industries
While talking about her experience of working in different film industries, Priyanka shared that filmmaking in India and abroad works in very different ways. She explained that she does not try to mix the two styles. Instead, she adapts herself fully to the working culture of each set. For her, every film is about understanding the director’s vision and responding honestly to what the story needs.
Priyanka Chopra said that she approaches every project with a clean mindset, without carrying habits or expectations from previous work. This ability to adjust, she feels, has helped her grow as an actor and stay grounded no matter where she is working.
Why this comeback feels special
Priyanka Chopra expressed her happiness about returning to Indian cinema and said that Varanasi felt like the right project to come back with. She shared that if she had to return after such a long break, she wanted it to be for something meaningful and creatively satisfying. The scale of the film and the opportunity to work with an experienced director made the decision easy for her.
She also revealed that one of her favourite parts of returning to Indian films has been dancing again. Priyanka said she missed performing dance sequences, which are a big part of Indian cinema but were not part of her recent projects.

Teasing Don 3 and Krrish 4 possibilities
Naturally, questions came up about two of her most loved film franchises — Don and Krrish. When asked directly about Don 3 and Krrish 4, Priyanka chose her words carefully. She said she could not speak openly about either project at the moment. However, her playful response hinted that something might be in the works.
Her co-star Mahesh Babu added a light-hearted comment during the interaction, suggesting that her silence itself was interesting. Priyanka smiled and simply said that exciting times are ahead, leaving fans hopeful but without any official confirmation.
First Indian film in six years
Priyanka Chopra confirmed that Varanasi is her first Indian film in almost six years. She described the experience of being back on an Indian set as emotional and refreshing. From speaking the language daily to working with familiar filmmaking styles, the actress said it felt like reconnecting with a part of herself.
She also shared that this return is not about choosing between industries but about embracing stories that excite her, no matter where they are made.
While Varanasi is still some time away from its theatrical release, Priyanka continues to balance her acting and production work. Her schedule remains packed, but she seems clear about one thing — her connection with Indian cinema is strong, and this return is just the beginning.
With major projects lined up and old favourites possibly making a comeback, Priyanka Chopra’s next phase promises to be one of her most interesting yet.
