Parineeti gears up to launch career as producer

Parineeti Chopra expressed that she is all geared up to launch her career as a producer, reports Pink Villa.

During her recent conversation with ETimes, the Ishaqzaade actor shared that movies like ‘Saina’ and ‘The Girl On The Train’ have paved the way for her to take new challenges.

Parineeti said, “I do want to produce, and I want to do that because I feel that many times there is a struggle for actresses to get the kind of budgets, stories or casting that they sometimes need for their project. Of course, that is understandable because right now, the kind of collections that these sorts of projects garner demand that they have to be made at a certain budget. I have wanted to create a name for myself as someone who can sell a film on my own name.”

“I think this year, I will definitely be thinking about it(production) because I want to back content that is a little more out there and the kind of stuff that is not being made right now,” said Chopra.

The 33-year-old actor also appreciated that more female filmmakers are bringing their perspective to the film industry.

“At one point, the artistes and creators including producers, writers, lyricists, music directors and cinematographers were mostly men. Of course, they were very talented, but I think it is beautiful that now there are more female lyricists, writers, directors and producers,” continued the ‘Hasee Toh Phasee’ actor.

“This is like an entirely new chapter of the workforce that has come into the industry,” she explained.

“Women can write from a different point of view, similarly, female producers can think in a different way than male producers. It’s great that women are now so beautifully included in an industry that was at one point male-dominated,” she added.

Last year, Parineeti Chopra, a talented singer, released an Instagram video of her singing the title tune of the film ‘Kalank’ alongside her brother Shivang. She received a lot of positive feedback from her friends and followers, as well as requests to sing more frequently. In ‘Meri Pyaari Bindu,’ the actor made her singing debut with ‘Maana Ke Hum Yaar Nahi.’ Ask her about showing off her singing prowess, and she says, “Singing is a part of my DNA. I’m already in talks with a studio to start my career as a singer, and it will definitely happen this year.”
