Priyanka lauds Obsession, says Hollywood’s barriers are falling

Actress Priyanka Chopra Jonas, who was last seen in The Bluff, has shared her opinion on becoming a producer, and how she desires to expand her career in the U.S.
The actress also cited the low-budget horror smash hit Obsession as a marker of how barriers to entry for talent and filmmakers have fallen, reports ‘Variety’.
She attended the Cannes Lions conference on Wednesday, and said, “I feel like if you have an idea, shoot it, put it on YouTube, and it can become ‘Obsession,’ the movie that just came out”.
“What a wonderful time to be an entertainer, to be in the entertainment business, because ideas are your currency”, she added.
As per ‘Variety’, that wasn’t always the case. Priyanka has been building a career in Hollywood for the last decade, said she faced some challenges when she got into film because she had no connections.
She said, “My parents were doctors, so none of us had any idea how to navigate film. It used to be such a niche industry when I first started. If you wanted to get into filmmaking, you had to figure out what department you wanted to be in”. (IANS)
