Priyanka on the other hand is a superb actress. I think she can carry the weight of a movie all by herself. She has improved tremendously since starting, and can do a diverse range of roles, which I'm not sure Kareena can. I thought she was great in What's your Rashee, portraying 12 different characters! The movie was pretty entertaining even though it didn't get great reviews, but I do think that it was because of her that it got the attention it did since Harman Baweja is not a well known actor. There aren't many actresses that can draw in an audience like she can. She has set herself apart from other actress by a variety of roles and not just playing only the eye candy in the movie. But I think Kareena has also done that, and can also draw an audience.
But when it come to choosing sides, I always have to go with Kareena. Recently in an Koffee with Karan interview Kareena was asked what she would like to ask Priyanka, and she replied "Where did she get her accent from?". Priyanka's reponse was that she got is from the same place that Kareena's boyfriend, Saif, did. Here is a video of the interview:
I thought the question was funny, and the response was a bit bitter. I didn't know this but Saif did some school in England, so perhaps that's where he picked up his accent. Priyanka claims to have studied in The States, and hence the reason for her accent. However, she only studied there for two years (according to the trusty internet) when she was 14ish. This isn't enough time to lose your native accent and pick up a new one, also at that age it is quite hard to lose an accent. So, I don't think she picked it up there. I think it's something she thinks makes her sound more sophisticated and so she puts it on. She was Miss World and probably got lessons in speaking etc.
I know the Indian accent is the most attractive, but there is nothing wrong with it. People should be proud of themselves regardless of what others say.
What do you think?
Team Priyanka or Kareena?
Here is a video of Priyanka speaking, she seems to have lost her 'western' accent.
