Priyanka said “‘Bharat’ it is! I’m looking forward to begin shooting this film and working with Salman and Ali again after a considerable time.

“I’ve learnt a lot from them in our previous collaborations and am excited to see what this one has to offer.”

Ali Abbas Zafar and producer Atul Agnihotri travelled to New York to meet Priyanka and gave her the narration of the film. He calls Priyanka’s character in the film the “soul” of “Bharat”.

Ali Abbas Zafar also confirmed the same and said, “Bharat is Priyanka’s homecoming to Bollywood after having proved herself as a performer in a global TV show, Quantico, and in Hollywood. Bharat is rooted in India and its culture, spans over seven decades and travels the world. Priyanka is the biggest Indian artist globally today and a perfect fit for the film as she brings to the table her incredible talent and international appeal. Bharat is a mature, subtle love story and her character is the soul of the film. She stands shoulder-to-shoulder with Salman in his journey and is the catalyst who triggers what will be a turning point in the plot.”

“Bharat” has started its prep in London, after which director Zafar will move to Spain, Poland, Portugal, and Malta.
