Priyanka
Chopra
has
just
returned
from
shooting
stunts
in
Bangkok,
and
she"s
super-excited.
“I
rode
a
dirt
bike.
I
shot
with
an
alligator
and
a
bull.
It
was
fun."
Now
she"s
looking
forward
to
providing
a
huge
distraction
to
the
contestants
on
Fear
Factor.
“That"s
what
my
intention
is.
To
make
them
so
distracted
they
won"t
be
able
to
do
their
stunts."
After
a
rejuvenating
birthday
holiday
in
Phuket
Priyanka
Chopra
flew
to
Bangkok
to
shoot
the
promotional
video
for
'Khatron
Ke
Khiladi"
(Fear
Factor).
About
the
holiday
Priyanka
says,
“Apart
from
the
mishap
that
happened
when
I
dropped
my
phone
in
the
water
and
couldn"t
receive
any
birthday
greetings,
I
had
a
fun
time.
Like
I
had
told
you
before
I
was
generally
not
recognized.
But
even
if
I
was
I
didn"t
mind.
Being
recognized
is
part
and
parcel
of
what
I
do".
Priyanka
feels
a
change
within
herself.
“I
feel
I"ve
become
reclusive.
I
like
to
be
within
myself."
The
stunts
involved
a
motorbike
race
where
Priyanka
challenged
a
group
of
punks
to
a
race
through
a
terrain
that
would
scare
even
a
Grand
Prix
winner.
Priyanka
had
to
ride
through
some
of
the
most
impossibly-rugged
terrain.
According
to
crew
members
who
had
gathered
to
shoot
the
video,
the
male
mo"bike
members
used
for
the
film
were
all
professional
riders
used
to
riding
at
high
speed
through
the
most
rugged
hinterland.
Priyanka
not
only
had
to
ride
with
these
experts
she
had
to
look
better
than
them
on
camera.
She
had
been
secretly
practising
for
the
heart-in-the-mouth
mo"bike
stunts
for
weeks.
The
channel
had
offered
to
get
a
body-double
to
do
the
really
intricate
portions
in
the
shooting.
But
Priyanka
insisted
on
doing
the
entire
mo"bike
stunt-stint
on
her
own.
So
excited
and
charged
did
she
get
that
she
shot
for
a
full
twenty
hours
on
the
first
of
the
two
days
of
shooting
in
Bangkok.
Says
Priyanka,
“There
is
no
challenge
in
half-measures.
You
either
do
the
whole
thing
or
don"t
do
it
at
all.
I"ve
always
been
fascinated
by
mo"bikes.
I
love
mo"bike
stunts.
When
I
had
seen
Tom
Cruise
do
the
mo"bike
stunts
first
thought
was,
'Gawd
if
only
I
could
get
to
do
that".
I
guess
my
wish
came
true".
The
ride
was
not
all
fun
and
games.
Priyanka
has
returned
to
Mumbai
with
quite
a
number
of
bruises.
“But
the
pain
was
worth
it.
You
can"t
be
one
of
the
boys
on
the
bike
and
not
get
your
share
of
bruises".
She
intends
to
wrap
up
all
her
assignments
by
October
before
heading
for
the
shooting
of
Don
2
in
Berlin.
