The actress speaks her mind
According to a recent report in Pinkvilla, Priyanka Chopra gave an explosive interview to journalist Barkha Dutt recently. In the interview, PC remembered a time where she was asked to sign an unusual contract.
PC was quoted saying, “I was signing a contract for a big corporation a couple of years ago, and a clause there said that they could terminate it if I got pregnant. I was livid. How could you tell me I could not get pregnant. Not sick, not overweight, just pregnant! Their logic was that I would not be able to deliver the project on time.
“I was fine with working when I am pregnant. We had a big argument over it. I said ‘Alright, if I can’t deliver when I am pregnant, you have the right to terminate my contract. If I can deliver, and you don’t want me to, then I have the right to terminate.”
