Priyanka Chopra has come a long way in her career, from winning the title of Miss World to becoming Bollywood actress to now being a global icon. The actress has successfully carved a niche for herself in the entertainment industry with her hard work and remarkable acting prowess. She was just 17-years-old when she tried her luck in modeling and became the first runner-up at 2000’s Miss India beauty pageant.
Back then, Shah Rukh Khan was one of the jury members of the pageant and he asked her a 'hypothetical' question in the final round. Khan asked her if she would marry a cricketer Mohammed Azharuddin, or businessman Marcus Swarovski, or a superstar like him. He said, "“Hypothetically, who would you rather marry? A great Indian sportsman with all the records in Indian cricket like Azhar Bhai here who would make our country proud, take you all around the world and make you swell with pride or a business person with a difficult name to pronounce like Swarovski who would bedeck you with jewels and fine necklace and you will never have to buy a chandelier for your house ever again, or a Hindi film star like me who has nothing better to do than give you complicated multiple-choice questions about a hypothetical wedding like this.”

PeeCee smartly replied to SRK's question and impressed everyone with her intelligence, "If I was to choose one of these three very difficult choices, I think I would go to a great Indian sportsman. Because when I come back home, or when he comes back home, I know I will be there to be his support to tell him I am proud of him, just as India is. To be able to tell him, ‘Hey look, you did your best and you are the best,’ and I will take immense pride in my husband who will be a man of strong character if he can bring so much pride to my country. Thank you very much", she said as the crowd cheered for her. Check out the full video below:
