Priyanka Chopra makes her music debut!

Actor Priyanka Chopra made her international music debut on Thursday with the unveiling of the single “In My City” featuring Will.i.am. The actor is ecstatic as she believes she has fulfilled her father’s dream of becoming a singer.

While talking about her upcoming maiden album the actor said, “The heart of this album is Indian. It is a desi girl album. I am very nervous and shivering a lot. We will be shooting for the video soon. We will try and add Bollywood elements to it.”

For now only a one and a half minute long promo of her first song from the album has been released on the National Football League (NFL) network but even these little steps mean a lot to the actor. “It is an important and huge thing for an Indian to have this launch at NFL. This is a one-and-half minute version. No Indian has done that; it is surreal,” Priyanka said.

“In My City” will be available across all physical and digital platforms on September 14, exclusively on Universal music.
