"Doing something different is what makes acting fun. I get bored of doing the same thing every day myself, So when you are challenged with something, you want to perform better, you want to do well. And when you get success out of something which is hugely challenging, the satisfaction and gratification is tremendous. I think that has been an ambition for me," said the actress, who is currently hosting an action-adventure show Fear Factor - Khatron Ke Khiladi 3, aired on Colors.
The show is shot in Brazil and involves many challenging tasks, including fighting off creepy crawlies, as well as underwater and mid-air stunts.
Directed by Siddharth Anand, Anjaana Anjaani is about two strangers who bump into each other when they are going through the lowest point in their lives, and have gone to the same place to commit suicide.
"With so many suicides happening, it is a topic of discussion in India now. The greatest thing about this film, I feel is that, it is the window which shows you shouldn't do that (commit suicide), you never know when life will turn around. Give yourself an opportunity. This message is conveyed in a beautiful way through the film," she said.
Priyanka says it is flattering to see oneself on top, but she works very hard to be there.
"Being number one is always flattering. I work really hard. I come from nowhere. I come from a very normal middle-class background. I am an army officer's daughter. It feels great to see where I have reached now. God has given me so much; I feel really blessed," Priyanka, 28, told IANS.
Priyanka insists her journey to stardom has not been an easy one.
"It is definitely difficult when you arrive in the film industry without knowing anyone. There is nobody coming to you and saying 'ok, I am making a film for you'. When people don't like your work, you are written off. However, at the end you are only known by the work you do," she said.
Priyanka made her Bollywood debut with the Sunny Deol-Preity Zinta starrer "Hero: Love Story of A Spy" in 2003 and won her first Filmfare Award for best female debut in Andaaz, starring Akshay Kumar and Lara Dutta, that released the same year. After that there was no looking back for the former Miss World.
