New Delhi [India], April 06 (ANI): Padma Shri awardee Shahnaz Hussain, who was yesterday spotted at an event in the national capital, says if ever a biopic is made on her life, then she wants only Priyanka Chopra to play her part.
In an exclusive conversation with ANI, Shahnaz said, "My biopic has to have the kind of cast that suits my thinking and I don't think, I would agree until I get the right person to play my life. The person I have chosen is Priyanka Chopra. I want only her to play my part and if she does not do it, then I don't want my biopic to be made. If Priyanka refuses to do it or can't do it due to shortage of time then I don't want my biopic to be made."
When asked why she wants only the 'Desi girl' to play her character, the beauty expert said, "The person that plays your part has to represent you and I don't think other than Priyanka, anyone can represent my part well."
A source close to Shahnaz revealed to us that the 'Quantico' actress has been roped in to play Shahnaz Hussain and Amitabh Bachchan to play her father Nasirullah Beg in the biopic.
On a related note, the CEO of Shahnaz Herbals Inc. on Wednesday graced the event organised by lifestyle magazine G-Town society for the announcement of MR Delhi 2017 competition that will be held on April 15.
