Parineeti Chopra opens up on getting validated as an actor
In an exclusive interview with Pinkvilla, Parineeti Chopra talked about the love and praise that she has been receiving for Chamkila. She said, "On the Friday Chamkila released, I thought, Okay, I think I did a good job. It'll be fine. But then I remembered, it's a film called Chamkila, based on Chamkila's life. What impact could I have possibly made?"
She further added, "After release day, however, things were beyond my expectations. Of course, Diljit being Diljit, his performance and Chamkila's story were phenomenal. Everyone's getting well-deserved love, but I never thought I'd receive the same level of appreciation. As an actor, I always try to give it my all. All we ever want are results, for our hard work not to go in vain. But this kind of response? It's something I never expected, and i really feel validated today."
She continued, "The most rewarding thing, though, is the reviews. People are saying they didn't see Parineeti in the scene, that's a victory for me. For years, I've read reviews of my performances, and most of the time, the feedback hasn't been great. But now, people are actually liking my performance."
