Priyanka Chopra may have become a Hollywood regular, but her heart stays here in Mumbai. The actress, who is on a visit in the city had her last Bollywood film release in 2019. She is set to return to Bollywood in a female-led road movie 'Jee Le Zaraa', directed by Farhan Akhtar. The movie will unite her with two female actors including Katrina Kaif and Alia Bhatt.

Speaking in a recent interview, Priyanka called them her friends, and also shared a tiny update on when the film goes on floors. Refusing to talk about when the film is going on floors, she simply responded with "Hopefully, we are shooting soon." However, she did express her excitement at reuniting with Farhan Akhtar, who directed in 'Don', and co-starring along the two female leads. She said, "I am so excited about it. I am shooting a movie with my friends. When you make a movie with your friends, it's not work, it's just creative fun. Hopefully we'll shoot that next year."

On the work front, Priyanka will be seen next year in her much-delayed Hollywood rom-com 'Love Again'. It was initially titled 'It's All Coming Back to Me', after which it was changed to 'Text for You'. Priyanka said, "It's finally releasing. It was a pandemic film and you know how it is. We worked really hard to be able to make a film during the pandemic but I'm so excited it's coming out in May next year. It has Celine Dion and I am a big fan. She hasn't released any new music for a very long time and our movie will have original music from her. It's her acting debut in my movie so I am very excited."

Priyanka's next on-screen appearance is likely to be the Prime Video sci-fi series 'Citadel', which is helmed by the Russo Brothers and also stars Richard Madden of 'Game of Thrones' and 'Eternals' fame.
