The
film
Mary
Kom
starring
Priyanka
Chopra
is
based
on
a
strong
woman
who
fought
all
odds
to
become
a
boxing
champion.
However,
when
Mary
Kom
herself
saw
the
film,
tears
started
to
flow
down
the
cheeks
of
the
boxing
champion.
During
the
music
launch
of
the
film,
Mary
Kom
said
that
the
movie
resembles
her
struggle
in
life
and
after
watching
the
film
she
started
crying.
"After
I
saw
the
movie,
I
recollected
every
aspect
of
my
life.
I
became
so
emotional
that
I
cried
twice.
Still
I
have
tears
in
my
eyes," said
Mary
Kom
during
the
music
launch.
Meanwhile,
actress
Priyanka
Chopra
who
is
playing
the
role
of
Mary
Kom
in
the
film
said
that
the
boxer
called
her
after
watching
the
film
and
her
tears
brought
tears
to
Priyanka's
eyes
also.
"After
watching
the
film
Mary
called
me.
I
was
at
Turkey
shooting
for
Dil
Dhadakne
Do.
Mary
was
crying
and
I
also
started
crying
over
the
phone.
It
was
a
strange
moment," asserted
Priyanka.
In
the
meantime,
Mary
Kom
praised
Priyanka's
performance
in
the
film
saying
that
Priyanka
certainly
was
the
most
suitable
actress
to
play
the
role.
"I
knew
that
Bollywood
has
several
actresses
and
I
wanted
this
role
to
be
played
by
someone
who
is
fit
and
strong.
I
must
say
Omung
Kumar
(director)
and
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali
(producer)
has
chosen
the
perfect
person
for
the
film," said
Mary.
"Priyanka
has
worked
very
hard
for
the
film
as
she
had
to
undergo
rigorous
training.
I
am
very
impressed
with
her,"
the
boxer
added.
