“Believe me, I don’t do films for money,” says the hottie-with-the-mostest Priyanka Chopra. “Yes, I’ve raised my price marginally after Krrish, but it’s not really that big a leap.” If there’s fire in this smoke then Chopra is demanding a hefty Rs 2.5 crore remuneration per film.

And that catapults her in the same league as Aishwarya Rai who gets what she wants in spite of being a few-hits wonder. Even though her look and make up was heavily criticized in ‘Krrish’, this year end is going to be a Priyanka film festival all the way.

With Dharmesh Darshan’s ‘Aap Ki Khatir’, Nikhil Advani’s ‘Salaam-e-Ishq’ and Farhan Akhtar’s ‘Don’ set to heat up the winter, Priyanka is all set to challenge the monopoly of Rani Mukherjee and Preiti Zinta. In ‘Aap Ki Khatir’ she plays Ameesha Parel’s sister.

Well, that must have been difficult considering that Ameesha seldom gets along with any of her female co-stars. Shot in London, ‘Aap Ki Khatir’ has her playing the romantic lead opposite Akshay Khanna for the first time. She admits that it will be difficult enacting Zeenat Aman’s role in ‘Don’.

And what about the rumour that she has worn a bikini in the film? “No way…The boldest movie that I’ve done so far is ‘Aitraz’. There’s no way I will ever wear a bikini,” she says.
