Actor Priyanka Chopra recently visited India to launch her haircare brand. Now, she is back home in Los Angeles. During her stay in the country, the actor opened up about how it feels to work with the biggest names in the world and also stated that people give too much credit to the actors, though their role in a movie is ‘very limited.'

In an exclusive interview with Janice Sequeira, the 'Fashion' actor said, 'This doesn't have to do with just working with the best in the business in the States (US). Even when I was working in Bollywood, working with the best filmmakers taught me how to be the best actor. We give too much credit to actors; actors do nothing by the way. We really don't. I've always said this. Actors do nothing… Those 30 seconds of a scene, is where I come in. And then when I talk about the movie etc. So I have a very limited role.'

'We say out somebody else's words, we are working on a script that is written by someone else, we are lip-syncing and singing songs that are in someone else's voice. We're dancing steps that are choreographed by somebody else. We are doing marketing, where questions are asked by somebody else. We are dressed by somebody, and hair and makeup are done by somebody. So what am I doing?,' she concluded.

On the work front, Priyanka Chopra will next be seen in the web series, 'Citadel', produced by the Russo Brothers. She also has a Bollywood film, 'Jee Le Zaraa', co-starring Katrina Kaif and Alia Bhatt in her kitty.
