After it was officially announced that Priyanka Chopra will play the female lead in 'Bharat', Salman Khan took to Twitter to welcome her on-board. In his tweet, Salman jokingly reminded the 'Baywatch' star that 'Bharat' is a Hindi film. PeeCee then replied that she will always remain a 'Desi Girl'. Bharat is Priyanka's homecoming to Bollywood.
