Zeenat Aman Wanted Priyanka Chopra’s Role in Bajirao Mastani :

Known for her honest reflections on life, Zeenat Aman is a veteran actress who recently participated in an AMA (Ask Me Anything session) on Reddit to share her remarkable life as a Bollywood actress. One of the shifts Ion her life that was most astonishing was when she was answering question and providing a peek into her Bollywood experience.

While participating in the AMA on Reddit, one of the users asked the Bollywood Diva if she had picked up a movie lately and whether she thought she would have done a particular role justice. Without skipping a beat, Zeenat mentioned Priyanka Chopra's portrayal of Kashibai in the 2015 film Bajirao Mastani, as an example.

Zeenat further said, "I don’t know if I would have nailed it, but it looked like something I would have enjoyed doing.” In the case of Bajirao Mastani, it was Priyanaka’s character that sparked my interest. It was a multifaceted character and I would have loved exploring it" She said loving them.

It is no surprise that her claim was true, as we all know how astonishingly Sanjay Leela Bhansali directed the movie, and how spectacularly Priyanka acted in the movie. Her performance in the movie received a significant number of awards, famously portraying Kashibai, Peshwa Bajirao's (Ranveer Singh) wife.

This statement brought studded praise from fellow users on the platform who agreed with the actor's astonishing- Zeenat would bluntly slay the role.

Another user wanted to know what Zeenat has seen change in the industry over the years, particularly from the 1970s. In answering the question, she talked about the positive aspects she has noticed.

“I understand that people love to berate the Hindi movie industry, and a lot of the time, it is deserved. But I think one major and positive change I see is that there is a woman at every level of the processand they all seem to be performing their duties effectively. During my time, it was quite common to be the only woman on set! So this is a striking differenceto me.”

Zeenat Aman is also starring in the forthcoming Netflix series The Royals and will feature in Bun Tikki, which will further prove her versatility and acting skills.

Her eloquent answers during the AMA more than prove her relevance in the industry, which is remarkable given her age.
