One was crowned Miss World and the other Miss Universe. Priyanka Chopra and Lara Dutta were absorbed in the film industry quicker than their victories at the pageant. Priyanka’s second film and Lara’s first, Andaaz saw them sharing more than a stage. Incidentally, sharing screen space earned both of them the Filmfare Best Debut Female Award. However, theirs wasn’t a friendship spoken about and after the initial pairing, they weren’t even seen together. Now, 9 years later, both of them will be seen in Don 2 together. Quite a journey both of them have had and it will be interesting to watch them on screen again. You agree? On an aside, when Lara Dutta appeared on Koffee With Karan Season 3, Karan Johar asked her about her friendship with Priyanka Chopra. I had no clue the both of them even shared an apartment! Such is Bollywood. 🙂
