Considered as a global icon today the former beauty queen's old interview on nepotism has now gone viral after the tragic demise of Sushant Singh Rajput. In  the interview, the actress said how all kinds of nepotism exists and that there is nothing wrong in being born into a family that has a legacy. She went on talking about journey and added how she has faced a lot of it. She also revealed that she was kicked out of films because someone else was recommended, but she got over it. The Aitraaz actress went on to add how those who are meant to be success stories become that, despite all hindrances.

Continuing further she said, the fear of failure does not bother her anymore. She also explained how 300 people don't get paid if a shoot is cancelled when a celebrity falls sick and hence, the treatment. She added how one has to respect everyone's job and how she has trained herself over the goal she has set out to achieve and she knows what it takes because there are no free lunches in the world. Meanwhile, on the work front, she was last seen in Shonali Bose's 'The Sky Is Pink' with Farhan Akhtar and Zaira Wasim. The film was released in October 2019. PeeCee's upcoming project is  The White Tiger opposite Rajkummar Rao, which is a Netflix film. It is adapted from Aravind Adiga's prize-winning novel of the same name.
