Priyanka Chopra: “I don’t always feel powerful”

One of the most sought after actresses in the world, Priyanka Chopra has been honoured at the Variety’s Power of Women event, which was held at the Beverly Wilshire Four Seasons.

Addressing the controversy surrounding Harvey Weinstein, Chopra was cited in PinkVilla saying at the event, “It’s not just about sexuality. It’s not about sex. It’s about power. It’s an isolating feeling. The easiest thing to take away from a woman is her work.”

Chopra also opened up about what make her powerful in a recent Hollywood magazine interview. She said, “I don’t always feel powerful. I think that sometimes women have to show an enormous amount of strength to be perceived as unbreakable and that we can walk toe-to-toe with any man and anyone around the world. But women are physiologically different. It’s hard. I am vulnerable sometimes, I’m moody sometimes and it is hard for me. There is no way I let anyone see that when I walk onto a set and I think that’s what makes me powerful.”

She added, “What makes me powerful is being able to emotionally check myself. Use my vulnerabilities as my strength. I think that is the power of feminity.”
