“I don’t think the people know about Indians not at least as we really are. The world has a lot of stereotype with who we are, the way we talk, dress and behave. India is not only about meditation, yoga and spirituality but a lot more than that.” she added.
When we LetUsPublish team asked about one friend from the Hindi film industry whom she would share her award with, Ms.Chopra took no name and said “I am a self made person. Nobody helped me in my career except my parents but I would like to thank the film makers whom I have worked with for believing in me and offering me the right roles”
