Priyanka Chopra is constantly on the move, juggling between New York and India as she shoots for director SS Rajamouli’s upcoming film with Mahesh Babu in Odisha. Recently, the Barfi actor shared a video on Instagram, recounting an encounter that left her inspired while traveling from Odisha to the Visakhapatnam airport.

In the clip, Priyanka narrates the incident, saying, “So! I don’t do this often but I was very inspired today. I was driving to Vishakhapatnam airport on my way to Mumbai, on my way to New York. And I saw this woman selling guavas, and I love kaccha (unripe) guavas! So I stopped her and I asked, ‘How much for all your guavas?’ She said Rs 150. So I gave her a 200 note and she was trying to give me a change and I said, ‘No, please keep it.’ She obviously sold guavas for a living. She went away for a little while but before the red light changed to green she came back and gave me two more guavas! A working woman, she did not want charity! Really moved me.”

Priyanka also shared other photos from the set, where she is seen enjoying ice cream, spending time with her crew members, and soaking in the beautiful landscape. She captioned the post, “Lately,” with a heart emoji.

While Priyanka hasn’t officially announced her participation in SS Rajamouli’s film, leaked behind-the-scenes photos from the set confirm she is playing a lead role. Along with Priyanka and Mahesh Babu, the film also stars Prithviraj Sukumaran in a pivotal role. Backed by KL Narayana, the film is tentatively referred to as SSMB 29 and is expected to be the most expensive Indian film ever.

Priyanka also has Hollywood projects lined up, including The Bluff and Heads of State. She has also completed filming for Citadel Season 2.
