Priyanka is scared

After winning a beauty pageant that shot me to instant fame, I got some modelling assignments and ad film offers. Back then I had faced the camera for the first time. If you ask me how my first day of shoot was, I wouldn’t be able to tell you much as the memories have faded out.As an actor my first film was Joddha and my first day of shoot was far from what I had expected it to be. I was really nervous and a skin allergy left its marks on my lips.
Feeling conscious, I had asked my make-up artiste to hide it with the help of a concealer and kept on pestering him. I don’t remember whether or not I had delivered my lines correctly but I was definitely worried about how I looked.
Onscreen I appeared to be pouting all the time! Basically, I’m very apprehensive about my work. Even today I get goosebumps on the first day of shoot. Whenever I feel jittery, I squeeze out five minutes from my schedule to relax and calm down. I sit quietly at one corner and try to concentrate on my work, forgetting the rest of the world.
After all, you need to believe in yourself, maintain a positive attitude and work towards betterment. One should never forget that failure is the pillar of success. I’m a firm believer of the
dictum.
