Priyanka Chopra to Star in Action Film, Citadel Along with John Cena and Idris Elba

With the release of her web series Citadel (a spy thriller) on Amazon Prime, Priyanka Chopra will make her OTT debut. But the actor has already signed a new contract with Amazon Studios before the show even airs. She will soon be cast next to John Cena (a wrestler-turned-actor) and actor Idris Elba for an action picture titled Heads of State. The filming of Heads of State is scheduled to start in May, according to a report on Deadline.

Priyanka is preparing for the premiere of her Love Again (a Hollywood film), which stars Celine Dion and Sam Heughan. Priyanka will also be seen in Ending Things, a movie starring Anthony Mackie as well. Then she also has a project - Jee Le Zaraa, a Bollywood film with Farhan Akhtar, an actor-director. As for the script of Heads of State, it was written by Josh Appelbaum and André Nemec. And the story is based on one written by Harrison Query.

The director will be Ilya Naishuller of Nobody fame. The source also suggests that the movie will be similar to Air Force One meets Midnight Run. Before beginning promotions for Citadel, Priyanka was recently spotted at the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre's opening in Mumbai. Following the weekend's two-day NMACC inaugural celebration, it was on Tuesday that Priyanka attended the Mumbai premiere of The Citadel.

Richard Madden, who plays her co-star, joined her. On 28 April, the first two episodes will make their international debut on Amazon Prime in 40 different languages. Later, more episodes will be made available. The Citadel storyline is about elite agents Nadia Sinh (Chopra Jonas) and Mason Kane (Madden). Their memories are wiped off while making a narrow escape for their lives after the fall of Citadel, an independent global spy agency.

Mason looks for his former partner Nadia and then both embark on a mission, which is deeply rooted in lies, secrets, and undying but dangerous love. The series will maintain a flagship show status and blend with other local shows that are under production in Italy and India, starring Dhawan and Samantha Ruth Prabhu, and Mathilda De Angelis.

Priyanka Chopra Responds to Backlash For Having Baby Via Surrogate

When Priyanka Chopra and her husband, Nick Jonas, welcomed their first child, Malti Marie, into the world in January 2022, they, like so many others, announced the news in an Instagram post. "We are overjoyed to confirm that we have welcomed a baby via surrogate," the image text read. "We respectfully ask for privacy during this special time as we focus on our family. Thank you so much." Unfortunately, amid the congratulatory comments, there was a darker theme. People accused her of "outsourcing" her pregnancy by choosing surrogacy, "renting" a womb due to vanity, and purchasing a "ready-made baby," even implying that she wouldn't have a maternal attachment to her child. Chopra opened up about what it was like to face these criticisms during such a vulnerable time in an interview with British Vogue. "I've developed a tough hide when people talk about me," she said in the interview. "But it's so painful when they talk about my daughter. . . . I've been really protective of this chapter of my life. Because it's not about my life only. It's hers too." In the interview, Chopra said she used a surrogate due to "medical complications," calling it a "necessary step" that she was "so grateful" she was able to take. And the actor and producer had some choice words for the people who decided to speculate about why, exactly, she went that route: "You don't know me. . . . You don't know what I've been through. And just because I don't want to make my medical history, or my daughter's, public doesn't give you the right to make up whatever the reasons were," Chopra said in British Vogue. Adding to her conviction is the fact that Malti was born at 28 weeks, making her "extremely" premature. For the first three months of her life, she was incubated in the neonatal intensive care unit, and Chopra said she wasn't sure if her daughter would survive. After such a fragile entry into this world, Chopra is very protective of her baby girl - both of her physical safety (the actress jokes that she has seven cameras in her room) and her emotional well-being. "I'm like, 'Keep her out of it,'" she said, referring to critics and commenters. "I know what it felt like to hold her little hands when they were trying to find her veins. So no, she's not going to be gossip." Now, the family of three are happy and healthy in their Los Angeles home. And after decades of "grinding" in Bollywood and Hollywood, the 40-year-old actor and producer has taken the past year off from projects to focus her energy on being a mother. "It's been 20 years of hustling and working at breakneck speed. I've always been like, 'What's the next thing?'" Chopra said. "But now I feel I have a centre, a sense of calm, because every decision ends up being about her." https://www.popsugar.com/family/priyanka-chopra-surrogacy-criticisms-49066494?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=tumblr

Chris can u fancast how Hollywood would cast RGU

Jesus christ is this payback for boyfriends posting im sorry ill never do it again

God okay rgu has a pretty big cast and im gonna be ignoring some characters but only like people from the black rose arc sorry mikage and ljke all the minor characters </3 but still this is gonna be long and terrible and ouughhhh >:(

Okay first things first this is Hollywood this shit takes place in LA now and everyones been whitewashed to hell and back since im going the ghost in the shell slash death note light *TURNER* route im so sorry

Utena tenjou, now utena Turner (no relation to light) is gonna be fucking haliee steinfeld because oughhhh it causes me the most amount of pain and i honestly feel like you couldnt pay her to kiss another woman

Anthy himemiya, now called annie hemingway to not confuse american audiences, is played by priyanka Chopra because they remember anthy is indian but not that shes you know dark skinned

Touga kiryuu, now called tony kerrigan, has to be god whats that dude from to all the boys ive loved before? Noah centineo who is painfully miscast because no one understands touga who is now just genuinely utenas love interest probably

Nanami Kiryuu, now fuckinggggg ouuygghh nancy kerrigan or something, is played by jojo siwa who honestly could probably pull it off i believe in her but not with the script and director who probably make nanami unrecognizable. Because its jojo siwa she gets some new original character to have a blink and you miss it gay kiss with

Saionji kyouichi, now god fucking sean cooper or some shit, is now entirely comic relief so anthy and utena can have #girlpower moments that dont work AT ALL so hes probably like fuckign idk one of the jonas brothers the one who was in jumanji he was pretty good actually

Miki kaoru, now mickey kelly i guess, idk hes like tom holland in a bad wig being his best uwu soft boi

Juri Arisugawa, now julie armstrong, is fucking ahhhhh im running out of hip young actors im gonna have to start looking up the euphoria cast list juris uhhh dove Cameron i think that fits in that it doesnt. Juris also straight shiori doesnt exist her new love interest is ruka/ryan played by uhhhh cole sprouse lets dip into riverdale

Hmmm i think thats everyone except akio? Im gonna be vague on akio since you dont know who he is but

Akio is now aaron Hemingway annies brother and hes played but rahul kohli who is the dude whos way too good for this project and honestly i think he could do it but again akio is unrecognizable hes just anthys supportive but hilarously overbearing older brother

Other things that cause me pain aside from casting:

Utena isnt butch anymore she dresses like a Hollywood tomboy and probably gets a feminine makeover at some point and sticks with it

No one is lgbt except nanami and even then plus they probably make a few jokes about anthy and utena looking like a couple and its really homophobic

Idk the rose bride is now the equivalent of a prom queen and everyones competing to get anthy as their date or something but then anthy and utena start competing to be the rose bride

And because its unrecognizable as rgu utena and anthy both become rose brides and its the climax of the movie where theyre like ...women...dont have..to fight each other....we're all rose brides probably with some mean girls references

It closes on utena and touga kissing and probably idk anthy and saionji kissing and the rest of the couples

Olivia rodrigo makes a cameo as like the prom singer or something and does an english pop cover of rinbu revolution that is also unrecognizable

People online get mad if you ship this version of anthy and utena because theyre straight

Submitted: Priyanka Chopra Blind Items - Take with extreme grain of salt

[AHPF Note: I’m breaking this one up because it’s about Priyanka and this is not a Priyanka blog] [2nd note: Ugh, the break isn’t working for some reason, sorry]

This is related to blind-items concerning Priyanka Chopra, so please bare with this tangential story:

Recently, an on-the-rise bollywood actor, Sushant Singh Rajput, committed suicide during lockdown. His suicide has created massive fallout in the industry and has BLOWN the lid on the “bollywood mafia” and the levels of nasty PR games, casting couches, and blacklisting they do to those they consider outsiders in the industry. It’s literally the metoo movement of Bollywood and at that scale with a new celebrity, actor, singer who came from the “outside” is speaking out about their personal experiences with the rampant systematic dismantling of talent. In a nutshell, Bollywood is ruled by a handful of acting, producing, and directing families. They in turn only cast their kids or launch the careers of their friends’ kids while excluding any outside talent. It takes A LOT of talent to get into the industry and a lot of luck. It used to be that the only way to get in (if you weren’t born into a connected family) was to literally win a beauty pageant (hello, aishwarya rai and Priyanka chopra). The advent of the internet, YouTube and IG has democratized the way hopeful talent can pitch their work (modeling, singing, acting chops) and develop a fan base that they can leverage to get hired for mainstream projects.

This has only made the bollywood mafia tighten ranks and insulate themselves from outsiders. They’ve always had casting couches in place and blacklisting of talent but over the last 10-15 years, they have adopted dirty PR tactics to discredit new talent and make them unhireable. They have resorted to placing false and malicious blind items in Indian gossip columns (or with paid-for-hire journalists) to this end. In concert with these blind items, these families’ work behind the scenes to have outside talent replaced with their own children/friends and band together to boycott working with an outsider talent. They have destroyed the careers of many outside talent. Also, many of these “mafia” families (ie. the Kapoor’s) aren’t very bright - many of them drop out and haven’t finished school - which is a serious blight in as academically competitive an arena as India is for students. So if someone is talented and then smart and not easily manipulatable to boot is considered a super threat and systematically taken down.

It’s just come to light that Sushant Singh Rajput was the target of such a systematic take down campaign. He was an exceptionally bright guy (he ranked 7th of all students in India for an all India, standardized Engineering exam) and was winning critical acclaim for his movies before being collectively blacklisted and discredited with blind items.

So since all this came to light in the last few weeks, it has also been revealed that a Priyanka Chopra was also the victim of such a campaign, which is why she sought a career in Hollywood. It should be noted to those not familiar with her star status that she won the Miss World pageant in the 90s and was a STAR in India with a ton of films under her belt. There was literally no need for her to get on American TV. I always wondered why she was hustling for TV roles in Hollywood when she has the world at her fingertips (Bollywood is Massive everywhere). I remember hearing wierd and frankly uncharacteristic gossip that she was involved with a married man (a prominent Indian film actor) with whom she had a secret love child and that she was run out bollywood. In light of all the stuff coming out about outsiders having their careers blacklisted by the Bollywood mafia and the seedy PR tactics they engage in, I seriously side-eye these blind items about Priyanka Chopra being a yachter or having an affair with the Tom Cruise of Indian Cinema. I strongly think the blind items about her are placed by Bollywood folks who grew tired of her outspokenness in Bollywood and ability to self-advocate, and would consider them largely fabricated. As a I said, Priyanka Chopra was an outsider - she won the Miss World Pageant and that platform and subsequent sponsorship from international beauty brands was the clout she needed to break into Bollywood. Money speaks at that point and producers clamoured despite likely objections. Priyanka actually got really lucky because she kind of rode the tail end of the “Latina explosion” with the likes of Sofia Vergara and such becoming television staples. Priyanka filled that exotic beauty vibe that television was looking to leverage. Another actor who’s also been blacklisted and smeared with malicious gossip/blinds is Anupam Kher, who after a successful, decades long career in Bollywood as a prestigious character and supporting actor, he’s now having to hustle for tv roles in the US.

I don’t know about her and the Jonas Brother romance (my spidey sense tells me that it is a PR romance designed to keep her publicity up in Hollywood) but I do think the yachting rumours are a massive stretch. I know a lot of the blind items about Spacey, Epstein, Weinstein, Meghan and the BRF have been proven true. However I think we should seriously side eye the ones currently related to Priyanka Chopra and the yachting. It really doesn’t add up.

______________________________________________________________________

Thanks for sending this in. I’ve no doubt Priyanka was subject to a BW “blacklist” but I imagine that’s because of the affair with Khan and not due to any “outsider” status, as the Khan rumors date from the early 2000s.

The Best Movies on Netflix in India [February 2020]

In its efforts to win Oscars and please its 167 million members, Netflix has been pouring billions into movies recently, including projects from or featuring the likes of Dwayne Johnson, Martin Scorsese, and Michael Bay. One of those — The Irishman — racked up 10 nominations for the streaming service at the 2020 Oscars, though it failed to come away with a single prize. Netflix has also expanded its film efforts in India in the past year, announcing projects from the likes of Shah Rukh Khan and Karan Johar. For now though, the strength of its catalogue is still the acquisitions. With over 3,500 movies, Netflix offers more choices than any other platform in India. To pick the best movies on Netflix, we relied on Rotten Tomatoes, Metacritic, and IMDb ratings to create a shortlist. The last of them was preferred for Indian films given the shortfalls of reviews aggregators in that department. Additionally, we used our own editorial judgement to add or remove a few. This list will be updated once every few months if there are any worthy additions or if some movies are removed from the service, so bookmark this page and keep checking in. Here are the best films currently available on Netflix in India, sorted alphabetically. 12 Monkeys (1995) Inspired by the 1962 French short La Jetée, a prisoner (Bruce Willis) is sent back in time to learn more about the virus that wiped out nearly all of humanity. Terry Gilliam directs. 12 Years A Slave (2013) Duped into slavery on the account of a job, Steve McQueen's adaptation of a free New York black man's (Chiwetel Ejiofor) 19th-century memoir is an incredible true story, and an important watch. 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) In Stanley Kubrick's highly-influential sci-fi film, humanity charts a course for Jupiter with the sentient computer HAL 9000, to understand the discovery of a black monolith affecting human evolution. It's less plot, and more a visual and aural experience.

3 Idiots (2009) In this satire of the Indian education system's social pressures, two friends recount their college days and how their third long-lost musketeer (Aamir Khan) inspired them to think creatively and independently in a heavily-conformist world. Co-written and directed by Rajkumar Hirani, who stands accused in the #MeToo movement. 50/50 (2011) Inspired by a true story, a 27-year-old radio journalist (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) is diagnosed with spinal cancer and learns the value of friendship and love as he battles the rare disease. Aamir (2008) Adapted from the 2006 Filipino film Cavite, a young Muslim NRI doctor (Rajeev Khandelwal) returning from the UK to India is forced to comply with terrorists' demands to carry out a bombing in Mumbai after they threaten his family. American History X (1998) In a film that's more relevant today than when it was made, a neo-Nazi white supremacist (Edward Norton), who served three years in prison for voluntary manslaughter, tries to prevent his younger brother from going down the same path. American Hustle (2013) In the late 1970s, two con artists (Christian Bale and Amy Adams) are forced to work for an FBI agent (Bradley Cooper) and set up a sting operation that plans to bring down several corrupt politicians and members of the Mafia. Jennifer Lawrence, Jeremy Renner star alongside. Andaz Apna Apna (1994) Two slackers (Aamir Khan and Salman Khan) who belong to middle-class families vie for the affections of an heiress, and inadvertently become her protectors from a local gangster in Rajkumar Santoshi's cult comedy favourite. Andhadhun (2018) Inspired by the French short film L'Accordeur, this black comedy thriller is the story of a piano player (Ayushman Khurrana) who pretends to be visually-impaired and is caught in a web of twists and lies after he walks into a murder scene. Tabu, Radhika Apte star alongside. Apollo 13 (1995) Ron Howard dramatises the aborted Apollo 13 mission that put the astronauts in jeopardy after an on-board explosion ate up all the oxygen and forced NASA to abort and get the men home safely. Argo (2012) Ben Affleck directs and stars in this film about a CIA agent posing as a Hollywood producer scouting for location in Iran, in order to rescue six Americans during the US hostage crisis of 1979. Article 15 (2019) Ayushmann Khurrana plays a cop in this exploration of casteism, religious discrimination, and the current socio-political situation in India, which tracks a missing persons' case involving three teenage girls of a small village. A hard-hitting, well-made movie, though ironically, it was criticised for being casteist itself, and providing an outsider's perspective. The Avengers (2012) Earth's mightiest heroes — including Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, and the Hulk — come together in this groundbreaking Marvel team-up from writer-director Joss Whedon to stop Thor's adopted brother Loki (Tom Hiddleston) and his alien army from subjugating mankind.

The Aviator (2004) With Leonardo DiCaprio as Howard Hughes and Cate Blanchett as Katharine Hepburn, Martin Scorsese dives into the life of the aviation pioneer and film producer, who grapples with severe OCD while his fame grows. Awakenings (1990) Robin Williams and Robert De Niro lead the cast of this drama based on a 1973 memoir of the same name, about a doctor (Williams) who discovers the beneficial effects of a drug on catatonic patients, thereby gifting them a new lease on life. Barfi! (2012) Set in the 1970s amidst the hills of Darjeeling, writer-director Anurag Basu tells the tale of three people (Ranbir Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra, and Ileana D'Cruz) as they learn to love while battling the notions held by society. Beasts of No Nation (2015) With civil war raging across a fictional African nation, this Netflix Original focuses on a young boy who's trained as a child soldier by a fierce warlord (Idris Elba), and the effects it has on him. Before Sunrise (1995) In the first chapter of Richard Linklater's long-drawn-out trilogy, two idealistic twentysomethings, an American man (Ethan Hawke) and a French woman (Julie Delpy), spend the night together walking around in the Austrian capital of Vienna. The Big Lebowski (1998) A guy known as The Dude (Jeff Bridges) seeks payback for his ruined carpet after he's mistaken for a millionaire with the same name in this crime comedy from the Coen brothers. Less about the plot and more about a way of living. The Big Short (2015) Starring Christian Bale, Steve Carell, Ryan Gosling and Brad Pitt, a look at Wall Street's penchant for self-profit in a vicious loop that caused the 2007–08 global financial meltdown. Birdman (2014) Alejandro G. Iñárritu won three Oscars including Best Picture for this tale of a washed-up superhero actor (Michael Keaton) who struggles to revive his career with a Broadway play. Known for appearing as if it was shot in a single take, it also starred Edward Norton, Zach Galifianakis, and Emma Stone. Blade Runner (1982) One of the most influential cyberpunk films ever made is about a burnt-out cop (Harrison Ford) who reluctantly agrees to hunt down a group of fugitive “replicants”, synthetic humans with a limited life-span who aren't allowed to live on Earth. Blue Valentine (2010) Ryan Gosling and Michelle Williams lead this drama that shifts between time periods to depict a couple's courtship and how their marriage fell apart. Das Boot (1981) One of the most authentic war movies ever made chronicles the life of a German submarine crew during World War II, as they go through long stretches of boredom and periods of intense conflict, while trying to maintain morale in a capsule 10 feet by 150 feet hundreds of metres under the surface. The Bourne trilogy (2002-07) Technically not a trilogy, but the first three chapters — Identity, Supremacy, and Ultimatum — starring Matt Damon in the lead as the titular CIA assassin suffering from amnesia were so good that they changed the longest-running spy franchise of all-time: James Bond.

The Breadwinner (2017) This animated film follows a 11-year-old girl living under Taliban rule in Afghanistan, who disguises herself as a boy to provide for her family after the father is taken away without reason. Uses wonderfully-drawn vignettes to stress on the importance of storytelling. Bulbul Can Sing (2019) Three teenagers battle patriarchy and the moral police as they explore their sexual identities in Rima Das's National Award-winning drama — and pay for it dearly. Das writes, directs, shoots, edits, and handles costumes. C/o Kancharapalem (2018) Set in the eponymous Andhra Pradesh town, this Telugu film spans four love stories across religion, caste, and age — from a schoolboy to a middle-aged unmarried man. A debut for writer-director Venkatesh Maha, featuing a cast mostly made up of non-professional actors. Capernaum (2018) In the award-winning, highest-grossing Arabic film of all time, a 12-year-old from the slums of Beirut recounts his life leading up to a five-year sentence he's handed for stabbing someone, and in turn, his decision to sue his parents for child neglect.

A Clockwork Orange (1971) Set in a near-future dystopian Britain, writer-director Stanley Kubrick adapts Anthony Burgess' novel of the same name, commenting on juvenile delinquency through the eyes of a small gang leader who enjoys "a bit of the old ultra-violence".
