In the conversation, Priyanka Chopra opened up about the removal of a polyp in her nasal cavity, which went terribly wrong. Talking about how her botched nose surgery almost ended her career prematurely, PeeCee shared that the doctors advised her to get a polypectomy done, but the process altered her face's appearance in a way that she had not anticipated. Recalling the horrifying time, Priyanka said:
"This thing happens, and my face looks completely different, and I went into a deep, deep depression."
Since Priyanka's career in Bollywood had just started, she was fired from three movies after her botched nose surgery. In the same interview, the actress shared that at that time she believed that it was the end of her acting career. She added that the situation got so bad that she didn't feel like leaving her house. However, Priyanka revealed that it was her dad, Dr Ashok Chopra, who convinced her to go for corrective surgery. She added:
"I was terrified of that, but he was like, 'I will be in the room with you! He held my hands through it and helped me build back my confidence."

However, further in the conversation, Priyanka Chopra also credited Bollywood filmmaker, Anil Sharma, for helping her get back to acting by offering her a supporting role.

In her words:
“I was supposed to play this lead, and I was shifted to a supporting character. That filmmaker was very kind. He, while the tide was against me, said, ‘It will be a small part but give it your all.’ And I did.”
On the work front, Priyanka Chopra was last seen in the web series, Citadel.
