I will protect my sisters in Bollywood, says Priyanka (view pics)

Mumbai: Actress Priyanka Chopra says while there was no one to support her when she entered Bollywood, she will help her cousins make a mark in the film industry.  “It has been a great journey



Priyanka says she tried method acting but got bored.  “I am spontaneous. I haven't learnt acting process so my style is different. If I do research I do it for 2-3 months and forget it,” she said.

The actress had a setback in June this year when her father Dr Ashok Chopra passed away, but she resumed work soon.  

“My work has been my biggest supporting factor... I have been working since the age of 17. After three days of my father's demise I had started working, as I feel if you work you forget things and that is better for me,” she said.
 
Coincidentally, ‘Zanjeer' is Priyanka's third Amitabh Bachchan remake after ‘Don' and ‘Agneepath'.  “It is a big coincidence I did not plan it. I feel fortunate as I am a big fan of him. I can't play Amitabh Bachchan on screen. So being part of his remakes is the closest that I can get to him,” she said.

In the remake, Priyanka will be seen stepping in the shoes of Jaya Bachchan. But, her role is different.  
“My character has changed completely, only the name is same - Mala. In the film I come from New York, she is an NRI.
