Yukta Mookhey Declares 'Nothing' to Appreciate in Priyanka Chopra

In a Filmymantra Media interview, Mookhey contrasted Chopra’s competitive stance to the supportive guidance she once received from other Miss World queens.

Overview

  • Mookhey said she saw “nothing” in Chopra to admire and implied Chopra treated her more as a rival than a junior to support.
  • She recalled that Chopra sought her advice ahead of the 2000 Miss World pageant, consulting her on presentation and preparation.
  • Mookhey praised Juhi Chawla’s congratulatory call, Sushmita Sen’s best wishes, Aishwarya Rai’s emphasis on grace and Diana Hayden’s coaching on interview tactics and language nuances.
  • Yukta’s brief acting career in Hindi films such as Pyaasa, Katputtli and Memsahab failed to gain traction, leading her to focus on philanthropic endeavours.
  • Chopra went on to become a global Bollywood and Hollywood star and producer, and her action-comedy Heads of State will premiere on Prime Video on July 2.
