Priyanka as comic strip heroine


Soon we would see Bollywood glam girl Priyanka Chopra as a comic strip heroine in an international comic book series.

British businessman Richard Branson is all for Priyanka Chopra. After showering accolades on the actress, the entrepreneur is keen on turning her into a comic strip heroine for his publishing house. The character will look like Priyanka and will also be named after her. With this new facet as a comic strip heroine, Priyanka becomes the first Bollywood star and the second in India (after Sachin Tendulkar) to be featured in a comic series of international repute.

An excited Priyanka is all thankful for Branson. “It’s a great honour. Big filmmakers and actors like John Woo, Nicolas Cage, Shekhar Kapoor and Terry Gilliam are associated with Branson’s comics. Even our Sachin has a comic book series with him. I’m working on two projects. One is a completely fictional story and character. The other will be a super hero who looks like me and will borrow incidents from my life.”
Priyanka opines that this takes her beyond the usual realm of acting. Being one who loves to take up new projects, Priyanka is extremely delighted with this comic strip idea. She says, “I like taking on projects that take me beyond the expected and forward as a person and professional. The comic book is one more endeavour in that direction. Whenever I take on something new I need to be completely involved. And it has to be something that’s an extension of my own personality. I can’t have ideas from the outside thrust on me. The comic book is an idea close to my heart. I love fairy tales and comics.” Way to go, Priyanka!
