"I am playing a Killer in Don" - Priyanka Chopra

  • IndiaGlitz, [Friday,September 15 2006]

Priyanka Chopra is essaying the stunning Zeenat Aman's character [Roma] in Farhan Akhtar's eagerly anticipated DON, releasing on Diwali/Eid this year. In an interview to the BBC Asian Network to be aired soon, when she was asked about comparisons with Zeenat Aman, she exclusively divulged, "I am not trying to step in to Zeenat ji's shoes. She was in a league of her own. My character is very different from the one in the original. I'm playing a killer and have received special training in Martial Arts by a Shaolin teacher to prepare for the role! DON will show me in a completely new avatar!"

For long, there has been talk that contrary to perception, the new DON is replete with twists, turns and unforeseen surprises and thrills, and looks like this is only one of them!

U TV is releasing DON internationally on October 20.
