The Chopra sisters - Priyanka and Parineeti - are set to clash at box office with the release of their respective films 'Zanjeer' and 'Shuddh Desi Romance' on September 6.
"She is my sister, my family. It is very cheap when people try to create controversy and use that to write a little more about it. It is Chopra weekend and people must enjoy it," Priyanka told reporters at an event last evening.
After making her international singing debut, Priyanka has lent her voice to Disney's animated film "Planes". She has dubbed for an Indian plane, called Ishani, in the movie, which is a spin-off of "Cars" and "Cars 2".
"When I saw the film, it was like initially weird that a plane is talking in my voice. I am very animated, I open my eyes and talk. It is creatively different, it is novel. It is an exciting venture for me, not too many people have done it," she said.
Priyanka feels there are a few similarities between her and Ishani - she is confident, races with big bad boys and she is tough.
"I am an entertainer, performer, I go where I get work. It is not a crossover for me, I don't believe in this word. I am happy in this Indian film industry, love Hindi films, it is like an expansion to me," she said.
"Every person wants to grow, I want to work wherever I can. I am handling two careers, it is an exciting time," she said, adding that she would be happy to lend her voice to a Hindi film, provided the offer is interesting.
