Priyanka Chopra completes shoot for spy thriller 'Citadel'
What's the story
Priyanka Chopra, who juggles between Bollywood and Hollywood, has finished shooting for her much-awaited project Citadel. As the Amazon Prime Video spy thriller completed filming, the actress shared several behind-the-scenes pictures on social media. She said it's been an "intense" year but promises all the hard work is "worth it." Chopra's post on Instagram has received a lot of comments and likes from followers.
Context
Why does it matter?
Chopra's last release, The Sky is Pink, couldn't work its magic at the box office. It was a flop with earning just Rs. 20.03 crore. Prior to that, Jai Gangaajal in 2016 managed to earn just Rs. 32.63 crore at the ticket window. So, to maintain her credibility, the former Miss World needs to prove herself and Russo brothers-helmed Citadel is a good opportunity.
Post
Chopra described her 'Citadel's shoot as 'most intense'
"It's a wrap on #Citadel," wrote Chopra on Instagram. "Phew.. a whole year of doing the most intense work during the most intense time. It could not have been possible without this incredible lot of people. Some you see here some you don't." "It's been hard but when you all see it.. it will be worth it! Onwards and upwards," the actress added.
