Priyanka Chopra Jonas

Actress, producer

Priyanka Chopra Jonas is an Indian actress and producer. She is one of the three leads of Barfi! (2012), with Ranbir Kapoor and Ileana D’Cruz.

Priyanka Chopra Jonas, born 18 July 1982 in Jamshedpur, won Miss World in 2000 and then built a Hindi-film career that did not stay inside glamour parts. Fashion (2008) is the film that changed how she was cast. Barfi!, Bajirao Mastani (as Kashibai) and Mary Kom followed. She then moved a large part of her work to American television, as Alex Parrish in Quantico (2015–18), and to English-language films.

She is married to Nick Jonas. That is public record. This page is about the work.
