When I went back to India, and I was in this small town, and I was peacocking like I peacocked in my American high school I had boys follow me home. One of them jumped into my balcony at night. That’s why my dad was like, ‘F*** this, bars, all your jeans are confiscated, you are going to wear Indian suits, nothing happening. I had a driver drive me everywhere, he was freaked out.

Priyanka Chopra added, “I didn’t understand the gravity of it. I thought I was invincible. I think about it now. How did I get away with this s*** that I did? But it was this invincible thing of, ‘I can get away with anything’. But that day when somebody was outside my bedroom. He was outside my balcony, and I saw him, and I screamed and went to my dad. My dad came, he jumped, and he went away. The next day my dad was like, ‘You need rules’. I was so arrogant and vain in those two years of my life. Especially when I came back to India. Suddenly there was this equity on me which I didn’t have in American high school where the girls were bullying me.”
