In one of the recent outings, the ‘Quantico’ star was asked about the cons of having a common name like Priyanka and how it works in her favour in the global entertainment industry.
“I take full advantage of the fact that I am the only Priyanka most Americans know. But when I come to India, there are at least six Priyankas in the room,” she joked.
“So over the years, I have got used to being just PC in India. But when I go to America, I am the only one.”
She added, “I don’t even use my last name most often there anymore. I want to now become like Cher! Or Rekha! Just Priyanka! (laughs) I love it.”
