Priyanka Chopra is eagerly looking forward to the release of 'Don 2'. And why not? After all between '7 Khoon Maaf' and 'Don 2', she has faced the longest break ever - the one that has lasted over 10 months - for the first time in her career which is in its ninth year. Moreover in the interim period her competitors like Kareena Kapoor and Katrina Kaif have been giving huge successes like 'Bodyguard'/'Ra. One' and 'Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara'/'Mere Brother Ki Dulhan'.

"All of this means that Priyanka would certainly have some catching up to do," says a trade veteran, "However next 12 months would be interesting since Priyanka would have 'Don 2', 'Agneepath' (Hrithik Roshan), 'Barfee' (Ranbir Kapoor) and 'Teri Meri Kahani' (Shahid Kapoor) releasing one after another."

While those in the industry wonder whether this strategy indeed makes sense, what with Kareena already working on 5 other biggies while Katrina too becoming Yash Raj's new favourite with an entire 2012 reserved for her (she has a film each with Salman, Aamir and Shahrukh), those close to Priyanka insist that 'all is well'.

"She isn't someone who would start panicking," says a close associate, "Her 'Don 2' is a sure shot blockbuster in the making which means she would end the year on a high note. Then 'Agneepath' has the trappings of a big success as well. Moreover there is 'Barfee' with Ranbir Kapoor which is carrying good reports. Also 'Krrish 2' is one film which has the potential to break the 200 crores barrier after '3 Idiots'. There is nothing for her to worry; she is doing well for herself."

We wish the same as well.
