She has her own parameters
of what her ideal man should be like, says she has left it to god to choose
a suitable life partner for her when the time is right. "I feel every girl
thinks about her ideal man since her childhood, but I have learnt that
we must not make such plans, and that especially goes for me... because
I propose, and then god disposes. He says 'I have my own plans for you',"
Priyanka told reporters here when asked about the kind of groom she wants.
Bollywood actress Priyanka
Chopra who has been romantically linked with all her co-stars, especially
Akshay Kumar and Shahid Kapur off-screen, says she heaved a sigh of relief
when the media did not do so with current heartthrob Ranbir Kapoor during
the shooting of Anjaana Anjaani.
"Thankfully there was no
link up and the media projected our friendship during the making of the
film in US in the right perspective. I said to myself...the media has improved,"
Priyanka said in an interview.
The 27-year-old actress
said she had lot of pre-conceived notions about the Kapoor scion. "I had
met him earlier through common friends and always thought he was the spoilt
son of a rich father. But, as we got to know each other during the filming
of Anjana Anjani, we discovered that we had lot in common and would talk
a lot," she said.
However, breaking the
ice was not easy, she said. "Initially, we would just stick to our work
and go our separate ways after shots during the US schedule. As the shooting
progressed, we spent a lot of time with each other and became friends,"
she said.
"Till now, I have felt
like god's chosen child. He has blessed me and I have got immense success.
So I hope He finds the right guy for me whenever it is the right time,"
she added.
Priyanka, who was in the
capital Thursday for the promotion of her romantic film Anjaana Anjaani,
releasing Sep 24, also shared what she wants in her groom.
"He should be sincere,
honest and he should love me unconditionally... and yes, he should be funny,"
said the 28-year-old.
But hasn't she already
found her man in Shahid Kapoor?
"I have decided to talk
about my professional life only. I don't talk about my personal life anymore.
Yes, the media has a right to ask...but I have always denied it and will
keep denying it," she said.
The young National Award
winner also retorted to a suggestion that this time around, she has escaped
the usual link-up that happens with most actors before their film's release.
Instead, rumours of her getting back with Shahid have been doing the rounds.
"Almost all films made
in India are romantic... so you mean that for every film, with every actor,
I should have a romantic link-up? So that you believe the film is real?
We do fiction films. Maybe when I do docu-dramas, I will do a film with
my boyfriend or husband. But otherwise, we try and keep everything very
professional in the industry," said Priyanka, whose next projects include
Saat Khoon Maaf, Don 2 and Anurag Basu's next, again opposite Ranbir.
