She told me how she and Priyanka were happy with the way my career was shaping up and discussed Sarvann with me. It was being made on a grand scale and the role was brilliant, but I could not do it because of my commitments for my next South film.”

‘PC aware of my career’

According to Mannara, Priyanka is aware of every project she takes up, “Every time I meet her, the first thing I have to spell out is what is happening next in my career. She understands me well. I have never felt the need to reach out to her, but if I do get stuck somewhere, she will be the first person I would call.” She adds that Priyanka is an inspiration, “She has done our family proud by achieving so much.”

The actress, who is looking forward to the March release of her next south film, Rogue, directed by Puri Jagannadh, has planned a special screening for the entire Chopra family next month, “It has always been family first for all of us.
