Bollywood's versatile star Priyanka Chopra admires
international pop star-cum-actress Beyonce Knowles for the balance that she has
struck in personal and professional life.
"I admire Beyonce a lot because she is an amazing
performer and more than anything, she balances her personal and professional
life very well," Priyanka told.
"She has a child, and at the same time, her
professional life also, which is amazing! That's the kind of a person I would
like to be - who can balance both personal and professional life
together," she further added.
Priyanka, who is charting her own singing career after
becoming a successful actress, says it was her late father, who always wanted
her to be a singer.
The 31-year-old has already launched two international
singles - "In my city" and "Exotic".
But it was a well-timed decision to get into the singing
field, she believes.
"In the beginning of my career, I never knew acting. I
have learnt everything in my career itself. When you have gone to acting
school, when you are in the film industry, there is some familiarity, but I
didn't have these familiarities. So it took some time and when I reached
somewhere, I got this opportunity of music and that time I was little more
comfortable in films and my dad really wanted me to do it," Priyanka told.
