In the viral clip, Priyanka said, “I was excited to work with Sunny Deol. He is a senior actor and I respect him a lot as an actor. I was very reserved from Sunny. We would sit in different corners. We would just ‘Hello’ and ‘Hi’ and that’s all. Even when I would talk to him, I would look down and look up and look down while speaking to him. But once we got comfortable with each other, then it was all good.”

‘The Hero: Love Story’ was not well-received at the box office and faced criticism. However, Chopra’s following film, ‘Andaaz’, opposite Akshay Kumar went on to become a major success and launched her career, earning her both, critical acclaim and commercial success.
