In a new interview, the Ishaqzaade actress opened up about the reception for her Netflix film.

In an interview, the Hasee Toh Phasee star said, “It is like a lifetime achievement award. You accept that your lifetime was the last two years that you gave to the film. Usually, the lifetime achievement award comes after like 50 years of service, but this one truly feels like that because it feels like a genuine, bona fide, authentic true hit. It is not a PR hit; it is not a fake hit. It has been a film that is actually liked by people. In today’s time it feels better than any other parameters.”

In the same interview with Indian Express, Parineeti Chopra revealed the kind of roles she’s getting after Amar Singh Chamkila. The actress shared that the type of roles she’s getting now are not like the ones she used to get offered in the past. Parineeti added that directors have seen something in her performance as Amarjot in the Imtiaz Ali movie, something they haven’t seen before. “There was one director who called me and said, ‘There was something in your eyes throughout the film. When I was writing my film, I never thought of you, but I watched Chamkila and now I can’t think of any other actress than you to do this film.’ So, I think the directors are able to see me in a new way, which wouldn’t have happened if I hadn’t played Amarjot Kaur. That’s been a big plus for me,” revealed the Ishaqzaade star.
