Actor Priyanka Chopra goes down memory lane as she dropped then and now pictures on Instagram. Talking about ‘how it started’ and ‘how it’s going’, Priyanka shared a couple of pictures saying that after all these years, she managed to hold everything together. Her picture has a young 17-year-old posing in a heavy sari and a newly acquired crown that was pinned into her hair with 2 bobby pins. In another picture, PeeCee also shared the latest sexy selfie, showing how it’s going.
Sharing the pictures, the Bajirao Mastani actor said, “How it started.. how it’s going. PS: those 2000s brows tho. My 17-year-old self was just trying to pretend like I belonged. In that moment I was desperately trying to keep it together. With the weight of the heavy sari and the newly acquired crown flimsily pinned into my hair with 2 bobby pins, my confidence was slowly slipping as well. But I held it together, just like my sari, with a few safety pins.“
