Exciting how entertainment goes beyond borders and language now: Priyanka
MUMBAI [Maha Media]: As someone who worked in the Hindi film industry for a long time before making a career in Hollywood, ''Citadel'' star Priyanka Chopra Jonas says it is exciting to be part of a series that is taking entertainment ''beyond borders and language'' through an intersection of stories from different countries.
''Citadel'', an ambitious spy drama slated to debut on Prime Video on April 28, will act as the flagship show that will blend with local shows already under production in India and Italy, starring starring Matilda De Angelis, Varun Dhawan, and Samantha Ruth Prabhu, respectively.
Chopra Jonas spoke about the ''cross pollination of cultures'' in a global press conference in late February.
''It was so exciting to me as someone who worked for a very long time in a non-English medium to see the success of subtitled work in English language territories. But the ambition of this show, which was so attractive to me in the beginning, is kind of like the social experiment of it.
''If the flagship show is an English language, you have an Indian show, you have an Italian show, and the characters and the storylines kind of blend into each other,'' the Los Angeles-based actor said in the press conference, which was also attended by PTI.
The actor hopes this blend of stories will lead people to tune into shows of different languages.
