In a recent interview, Parineeti Chopra opened up about the overwhelming success of the film “Amar Singh Chamkila.” Reflecting on this achievement, she remarked, “It feels like a lifetime achievement award. It’s as though the past two years dedicated to this film have been a culmination of my career. Typically, such recognition comes after decades of work, but this feels genuine, bona fide. It’s a real hit, not manufactured by PR. People genuinely like this film, which means more than any other metric today.”
Parineeti expressed her excitement about the new opportunities that have come her way since the film’s release. She shared, “The roles I’m getting now are entirely different. Directors have noticed something unique in my portrayal of Amarjot Kaur that they hadn’t seen in my previous work. One director even told me, ‘I couldn’t picture anyone else in this role until I saw you in Chamkila. Now, I can’t imagine casting anyone else.’ It’s amazing to see this shift in perception, all thanks to my role in this film.”
