Priyanka and Deepika have both finished shooting for their Hollywood debut. Priyanka stars as antagonist Victoria Leeds in Dwayne Johnson’s Baywatch while Deepika co-stars with Vin Diesel in xXx: The Return of Xander Cage.

“You (media) said we are friends. Earlier, you all used to write we are BFFs (best friends forever) so how did this change, why and how it changed? I did not say it has changed, you said it has changed,” Priyanka told reporters at an event in Mumbai.

“I am clarifying that whatever was earlier it is same today also. Your perspective has changed and that shouldn’t have happened,” the 33-year-old actress said, dismissing rumours that their friendship has turned sour.

The Bajirao Mastani co-stars have umpteen times in the past said they are friends. In fact, Deepika had said that Priyanka was her first friend when she entered Bollywood nearly a decade ago.

Priyanka has made a name for herself in the international TV industry with her show Quantico and now she will be making her debut in Hollywood with Baywatch.

When asked about reports that the team of the Piku actress is trying to get good projects for herself, Priyanka said, “Ask her team. My team is not trying. It doesn’t make sense for me to answer about someone else. I don’t pay attention to what others are doing. My career has been very solitary. My career has nothing to do with the success and failure of others.”

The former Miss World said that she is trying to open doors globally for Indian actors.

“I am trying to open doors for others (Indian actors) by representing the Indian film industry (at the international level). I hope a lot of south Asian actors get entry on global level. Whoever gets good work I will always wish them well. I would wish them more success than me,” she said.

Grapevine has it that Deepika and Priyanka declined to perform on Pinga at the recently held IIFA Awards in Madrid.

When asked about such reports, she said: “I have no idea. It would be better to ask IIFA team. All I know is that it was supposed to happen but then I don’t know what happened and why it did not happen. I have no idea. You have to ask IIFA I am sure they would know.” Priyanka was talking to the media at special edition launch of Maxim magazine.
