Priyanka Chopra Jonas and the team of Citadel are making sure to create as much buzz as possible before the spy-thriller series releases on Prime Video on April 28. After going around the world (Mumbai, London and Rome) PeeCee landed in Los Angeles for the premiere of the Russo Brothers’ show. She was accompanied by Richard Madden, Stanley Tucci and Anthony and Joe Russo at Amazon’s Culver Theater for the premiere. In between, she also got time to interact with the media.

In one of her interviews, Priyanka shared what did she do of her first ‘big cheque’ after her mother Madhu Chopra kept her first-ever pay cheque safe. She told Popsugar, “When I got the first big cheque I bought my first car. I bought myself a solitaire like a diamond myself. I started buying jewellery for myself or a car for myself whenever I had a big job or when I felt like celebrating an achievement. My parents used to always really encourage that like my mom drove me herself to a dealership once and she was like you know what, ‘buy yourself something.'”

She also revealed who she would take with her on a secret mission. She settled on two people — her mother Madhu Chopra and her husband Nick Jonas. Priyanka shared, “I want to go with my husband because he is very strong but I would also go with my mom, she can, in any city, find you the funnest places to go. She will find the smallest hole in the wall, the pub that you want to go to. So, both of them can be very resourceful.”

The actor also revealed that she has kept a memento for herself from the set of Citadel. The actor revealed, “From this job, I took a pair of red Louboutin shoes, the ones that I’m wearing in the first episode and they have pride of place because I did stunts in them. In my closet, they’re actually lit up.”

Priyanka also shared what charmed her towards Citadel beyond its cast and creators Russo Brothers. She told Esquire in a latest interview, “The charm of Citadel to me was just the ambition of the show. There’s nothing like this on television. It’s mounted on an incredibly large scale. At the same time, it cross-pollinates countries across the world with local instalments and there’s nothing like this. It is a franchise that has been originally created. So, I didn’t even know the story and I was like yes I will do it.”

Citadel will get an Indian version from Raj and DK. It will star Varun Dhawan and Samantha Ruth Prabhu in the lead role.
