In the video on Instagram, during an old interview, Priyanka opened up about the time when she was scolded on the sets of the film Andaaz while shooting for a romantic song with Akshay Kumar in South Africa. The actress revealed how she was yelled at on the sets for not getting the choreography correct after more than 40 takes. Talking about it, she said, "That was one of the first songs I shot and there were multiple things I had to achieve at that point. Once the 40-something-the take had happened and I didn't get it right."
The actress added, "I remember Raju Khan was the choreographer, he is Saroj (Khan) ji's son." Sharing more details about the incident, Priyanka shared how choreographer Raju Khan threw his mic down and asked her to learn how to dance and then come back. PeeCee continued, "He threw his mic down and said, 'Just because you're Miss World, you think you can become an actress? Go learn how to dance and then come back and perform.'"
The Dil Dhadakne Do actress also spoke about how her co-star Akshay Kumar's wife Twinkle Khanna saved her day. Twinkle Khanna, went into labour and the shoot was then cut short and they returned to India.
"Luckily, Akshay's wife went into labour at that point so the schedule was cut short and we came back to India. I remember going to Pandit Veeru Krishnan's class and started learning kathak. I did about six hours every single day and then when I went back, for the next schedule, I knew so much more," she said.
