After
a
grand
Bollywood
debut
with
Yash
Raj
Film's
Ishaqzaade,
Parineeti
Chopra
won
the
audience's
hearts
with
her
superlative
performances
in
films
like
Ladies
Vs
Ricky
Bahl,
Ishaqzaade,
Shuddh
Desi
Romance,
Hasee
Toh
Phasee,
among
others.
Like
every
star,
Parineeti's
career
also
saw
its
share
of
downs
but
one
thing
remained
constant
throughout
her
journey.
The
actress
always
picked
up
roles
which
gave
her
an
opportunity
to
change
the
narrative
of
how
women
should
be
portrayed
on
screen.
Over
a
period
of
time,
Parineeti
has
established
herself
as
an
effective,
unconventional
counterpoint
to
the
Bollywood
norm
that
heroines
should
look
a
certain
way
and
play
a
certain
type
of
roles.
Speaking
about
why
she
never
wants
to
essay
a
quintessential
Bollywood
heroine,
the
Saina
actress
shared,
"I
strongly
feel
that
actresses
have
to
change
the
narrative
of
how
women
are
portrayed
on
screen.
Right
from
my
debut,
I
have
tried
to
do
this.
I
have
always
taken
it
on
myself
to
do
something
out
of
the
ordinary,
not
portray
the
quintessential
heroine
that
Bollywood
has
tried
to
depict
for
ages."
Parineeti
said
that
she
attempted
to
give
varied,
bold,
confident,
ambitious
heroines
to
audiences
through
her
three
releases,
The
Girl
On
The
Train,
Sandeep
Aur
Pinky
Faraar
and
Saina.
The
actress
was
quoted
as
saying,
"My
last
three
films
-
The
Girl
On
The
Train,
Sandeep
Aur
Pinky
Faraar
and
Saina
were
also
an
attempt
by
me
to
give
varied,
bold,
confident,
ambitious
heroines
to
audiences.
My
next
film
choices
will
resonate
this
thought
process
too
because
I
definitely
want
to
do
my
bit
to
portray
women
better."
Further,
Parineeti
added
that
she
wants
all
the
actresses
to
be
conscious
about
how
they
represent
women
on
screen.
The
Meri
Pyaari
Bindu
star
said,
"If
all
of
us
are
able
to
change
the
way
women
are
presented
on
screen,
it
will
go
a
long
way
in
changing
the
perception
of
girls
in
our
society.
Cinema
can
impact
the
minds
of
audiences
and
so,
let
us
use
this
medium
to
affect
positive
changes
in
our
society."
Workwise,
Parineeti
Chopra's
next
project
is
Sandeep
Reddy
Vanga's
Animal
co-starring
Ranbir
Kapoor,
Anil
Kapoor
and
Bobby
Deol.
