Priyanka Chopra had nose surgery in the early 2000s to remove a nasal polyp, but complications altered the outcome. In an interview, her mother, Madhu Chopra, shared how Priyanka’s father reacted and noted that despite the setback, she won Miss World with the same face.
In a chat with Pinkvilla, Madhu shared that Priyanka was deeply affected by the surgery’s outcome. While she couldn’t provide much reassurance, Priyanka’s father remained supportive, believing it was a minor issue that could be fixed. She also noted that Priyanka won Miss World with the same face and called it an unfortunate but correctable mishap.
Madhu further recalled that Priyanka was naturally upset, feeling that the outcome was not what she expected. However, her father reassured her, emphasizing that there was nothing to worry about and that the issue could be corrected.
In her 2021 memoir Unfinished, Priyanka Chopra shared how she once struggled with low confidence and doubted regaining her self-esteem. She also revealed that industry insiders pressured her to undergo cosmetic enhancements to progress in her career.
Priyanka recalled a filmmaker criticizing her looks and suggesting multiple procedures, including jawline alteration and body enhancement. Her then-manager supported the idea, but she decided to part ways and ignored the unsolicited advice, choosing to stay true to herself.
The actress is set to collaborate with SS Rajamouli on SSMB29, starring alongside Mahesh Babu. The film is planned as a grand two-part saga, with production expected to continue until 2026.
