It looks like Priyanka Chopra is making a full-fledged Bollywood comeback – Krrish 4 is her next big pair of projects Priyanka Chopra may have gone global over the years, but for her OG fanbase in India, she’s always been their Desi Girl.
The actor’s return to the subtle yet professional Indian cinema-infamous – if reports are to be believed – hasn’t exactly gone under the radar. But from the looks of it, it’s going to be quite a comeback.
Speculations, which are still officially unconfirmed, are abuzz about Priyanka‘s extensive shooting schedule for the SS Rajamouli film, which stars Mahesh Babu in the lead. There was also chatter about Atlee‘s Allu Arjun-starrer which she reportedly turned down. Now according to a report in Pinkvilla, PC has officially been brought on board for Krrish 4.
Priyanka joining Hrithik once again in Krrish 4 is certainly a moment of timing. While there was a lot of back and forth regarding the leading lady for the fourth installment of the superhero franchise, it makes complete sense for the makers to go back to the OG heroine, who has been leading the charge on all the Krrish films so far. The report states,
“Hrithik, and Priyanka are a successful pair and have an excellent working relationship. It was more than a no-brainer for PC to come on board Krrish 4, as the story continues the journey of the characters from Koi Mil Gaya to Krrish, Krrish 3, and now the fourth installment. The actress was stoked to take Hrithik Roshan’s franchise forward, and was excited to see him take on the challenges of directing the film. Fans, for one, feel relieved about the sanctity of the franchise being maintained, though a recurring speculation has been the reason for Priyanka aligning herself back on the axis of Bollywood.
Comments expressing the same thing read,
“I am so happy PC is back in Hindi cinema, we were in dire need of a quintessential heroine suitable for an age and PC was also not doing so well in Hollywood. successful in Hollywood’, but probably not all your favourite actors will be able to get 10% of the attention, coverage and recognition they get in the US” and “PC ji king me bhi cameo kar lo please”. Some negative Nancy comments, however, included “Hollywood me kaam nahi mil raha kya” and “Laut ke buddhu ghar ko aaye”.
In late March, it was also shared that not Rakesh Roshan, but Hrithik himself will be wearing the director’s hat for Krrish 4, raising the scale and level of expectations from the project.
The film is set to go on floors in the first quarter of 2026 and will also reportedly bring back the iconic character of Jadoo after a gap of 23 years. Not just that, after a gap of 14 years, Hrithik will be seen in his chic Krrish-avatar, giving the audience a lot to look forward to. So are you excited to see PC and Hrithik together on-screen?
