Priyanka Chopra is back in the headlines, and fans cannot stop talking about it. The global star has returned to India for her first Hindi film in nearly six years, and her latest comments have sparked fresh excitement around Don 3. While Priyanka did not give a clear yes or no, her words were enough to set social media buzzing.

The actress is making her long-awaited comeback to Indian cinema with SS Rajamouli’s Varanasi, where she stars opposite Mahesh Babu. The film is already among the most talked-about upcoming projects. During recent interviews, Priyanka opened up about returning home, working across industries, and what this new chapter means to her.

As expected, the conversation soon shifted to her past blockbusters. Fans have been eager to know whether she will return to two of her most popular franchises, Don and Krrish. Her answers were carefully chosen and full of intrigue.

Priyanka Chopra On Working In Hollywood And Indian Cinema

In an interview with ScreenRant, Priyanka spoke honestly about the difference between Hollywood and Indian film sets. She explained how she adapts to both worlds without mixing them. “Um, yes, I think that the culture of filmmaking is very different in Hollywood versus how we work in India, and you have to pivot your brain. So I can divide my brain into two. I don’t think there is a world in which you bring lessons from there, here, or vice versa. I think you have to, like, immerse yourself into…”

She also stressed that a director’s vision plays the biggest role in shaping her performance. “And I believe, anyway, an actor’s journey is through a director’s vision, whether it was Ilya in heads of state or any other work that I’ve done abroad, all filmmakers in Hindi cinema or television cinema. I think you just have to go into every film set with, you know, the originality of whatever you’re going to receive from that set.”

Talking about her return to India, Priyanka sounded emotional and grateful. She said, “But, I’m so happy to be coming back and, you know, making this movie in India, because if there was any other, any way to come back into Indian cinema, it was this.”

Priyanka Chopra Talks About Don 3 And Krrish 4

With Varanasi marking her official return, questions about Don 3 were unavoidable. The franchise holds a special place in Priyanka’s career, and fans have long hoped to see her back in the action-packed series produced by Farhan Akhtar.

When asked directly about Don 3 and Krrish 4, Priyanka chose to stay silent on details. She said, “I don’t know if I can talk about either of them at all.” That single line was enough to send fans into overdrive. Adding to the moment, Mahesh Babu jokingly remarked, “Then there’s something happening.”

Instead of shutting down the rumours, Priyanka kept the excitement alive. She hinted at more projects in the future and shared what she enjoyed most about returning to Indian films. “Exciting, exciting times ahead, and, yes, this (Varanasi) is the first one that I’m doing after, like, almost six years in India, and just coming back. My favourite part was getting to dance again, which I haven’t done in any of my Hollywood productions. I was really excited to be able to do that.”

While Varanasi is still about a year away from its theatrical release, Priyanka will appear on screens much sooner. Her Hollywood production The Bluff is set to premiere on OTT on February 25, 2026.

Until then, her comments have kept fans guessing. Whether or not Priyanka Chopra is part of Don 3, one thing is clear. Talking about Don 3, recent reports claimed that the project has been put on HOLD again due to casting issue. Farhan Akhtar is said to be focusing on Jee Le Zaraa now.
