Priyanka Chopra’s objection about equal pay almost got her fired once Entertainment Bollywood star Priyanka Chopra has come a long way in her acting career. And while the actor basked in fame and glory, the road to the top was filled with bumps for her, as revealed by the Quantico actor in her interview on the podcast, Skimm’d from The Couch. The actor revealed how she was once asked to exit the film by a producer after she expressed her grievances about getting paid less than her male counterparts. Chopra said the exec told her she could “take the paycheck which was nominal compared” to what her male costars were getting paid.
