Parineeti Chopra is basking in the success of Imtiaz Ali's Amar Singh Chamkila, starring her and Diljit Dosanjh as the lead. Her performance in the film has received praise from the audience as well as the critics. The biopic was her first release in 2024 and was one of the most successful projects of her career. In an interview with Indian Express, Parineeti opened about her career and how the success of Amar Singh Chamkila on Netflix and how it makes her feel like a 'lifetime achievement award'.
When asked about the success of the Amar Singh Chamkila, Parineeti said, “It is like a lifetime achievement award. You accept that your lifetime was the last two years that you gave to the film. Usually, the lifetime achievement award comes after like 50 years of service, but this one truly feels like that because it feels like a genuine, bona fide, authentic true hit. It is not a PR hit; it is not a fake hit. It has been a film that is actually liked by people. In today’s time, it feels better than any other parameters.”
She also talked about the shift in the type of roles she is being offered after Chamkila, she said, “It has been amazing because the kind of roles I am getting offered now are not the same roles as before. Directors have seen something in my performance as Amarjot Kaur that they have not seen in any other film before. There was one director who called me and said, ‘There was something in your eyes throughout the film. When I was writing my film, I never thought of you, but I watched Chamkila and now I can’t think of any other actress than you to do this film.’ So, I think the directors are able to see me in a new way, which wouldn’t have happened if I hadn’t played Amarjot Kaur. That’s been a big plus for me.”
