‘I HAVEN’T MET A GUY WORTH IT’

Priyanka Chopra explains why she has not considered marrying It’s not like I haven’t been in a relationship, but there’s nothing that has happened, which makes me want to marry PRIYANKA CHOPRA, ACTOR

She is juggling multiple roles. She’s making glam appearances on global red carpets, shooting a hit TV show and films in Hollywood and Bollywood, but actor Priyanka Chopra, 34, isn’t complaining. “I don’t understand what people do during holidays,” says the actor, as she talks about life, career and marriage on her recent India trip.

With all this success and fame, how powerful do you feel?

I am a normal girl that way. Remember what the feeling is like when you top in your class and the report card comes? You party and celebrate but then start with your next year’s studies. I feel the same as my life is like that.

Has the feeling sunk in that you have achieved so much?

My team and even my friends tell me, but I don’t realise it. Maybe, I don’t. Maybe I am moving so fast that I don’t have the time to think about it.

In an interview you apparently said that you don’t need a guy for anything except for kids…

No, I never said that. I said, ‘you shouldn’t need a man and instead you should want a man’. I said, I shouldn’t need a guy to be in a relationship but should want to be with him. And I love children, I’ve always wanted kids.

Talking of kids, is marriage somewhere on your mind?

No, because a guy worthwhile isn’t around. You only think of marriage if the guy is worth it. It’s not like I haven’t been in a relationship, but there’s nothing that has happened in my life, which makes me want to… or I am not ready.

Will you be wearing the iconic red swimsuit in Baywatch?

No, I won’t be! I am the villain, not a life guard. I don’t want to make their lives easy. I wear very expensive couture because my character is a billionaire bombshell b***h (laughs).
