Priyanka sure knows how to win hearts, having ventured so far into the foreign film industry in less than a year, she is way ahead of the Bollywood herd.
Besides her series Quantico, the Bajirao Mastani actor will be making her Hollywood debut with a movie adaptation of TV show Baywatch alongside Dwayne Johnson.
