Sweta Keswani Claims Priyanka Chopra Does NOT Help 'Other' South Asian Actors: She's Not Mindy Kaling

Priyanka

Chopra is one of the top actresses in the industry today. She has ruled millions of hearts with her Bollywood films and is now a global star as she is taking over Hollywood, too. PeeCee has been making headlines for quite some time now. From her frequent India visits for the shooting of her next film to her sweet moments with daughter Maltie, the actress is all over social media. Now, actress Sweta Keswani has made some bold claims about the global icon and these have taken over the internet.

Sweta Keswani Makes Bold Claims About Priyanka Chopra

Speaking with India Today, Sweta drew a comparison between PeeCee and Mindy Kaling, adding that "what she does is amazing." She said, "I think it's incredible what she's (Priyanka) accomplished, there's no two ways about that. But she's not Mindy Kaling. She's not helping other South Asians. She’s only helping herself to be very honest. She's all about herself. What Mindy Kaling does is amazing because she's actually writing, producing and helping other South Asians to break through in the business, which is so hard as it is for women of colour." Further, she added, "I feel that there are cliques just like everywhere. So certain people like certain people, will call certain people, and they'll be cliques. Unfortunately, I'm not in any South Asian cliques."

Professional Fronts

Professionally, Sweta is known for her work in Baa Bahu Aur Baby, Kahaani Ghar Ghar Ki, and Des Mein Nikla Hoga Chand, among others. Her international projects include New Amsterdam, Nos4a2, The Blacklist, Roar, As They Made Us and The Beanie Bubble. Fans will next see her in an episode of Law & Order SVU. On the work front, Priyanka will be next seen in SSMB29, co-starring Mahesh Babu. Directed by SS Rajamouli, the movie will be released in two installments: the first in 2027 and the second in 2029.
