After making a name for herself globally with her kickass TV show Quantico, she is all set to conquer Canada now.
Punjabi film Sarvann, which is jointly produced by Priyanka Chopra’s Pebble Pictures and Pooja Films is all set for a launch in Toronto this Sunday. And guess what Canadian PM Justin Trudeau himself will unveil the film’s poster and trailer.
Currently busy with her commitments in the West, PeeCee remained unavailable for a comment on the development.
Her co-producer Deepshikha Deshmukh tells us, "We believe cinema has no language. Our production house took Sarbjit to Cannes and we will do the same for this film. It's great to be working with fierce women like Priyanka and her mother (Dr Madhu Chopra).
PeeCee is a go-getter. And even though she is relatively new to production, she knows the job inside out. Her experience in Hollywood really adds to her skills. She is sharp and bright. We ladies know exactly what we want and how to go about it."
Since Canada has a considerably high Punjabi population, Priyanka and Deepshika hope the launch event itself will create good buzz for the movie.
"It will certainly give a boost to the film. The reason we chose to launch the film in Toronto is because the story is about an NRI boy, who returns to India to explore his roots. Fashioned as a thriller, it essentially is a coming-of-age story of a young boy who unknowingly discovers his identity," adds Deepshikha.
The film's director Karan Guiliani as well as actors Amrinder Gill, Ranjit Bawa and Simi Chehail will also be present for the event along with PeeCee, her mother and Deepshikha.
