Lee, who was here to attend the 10th edition of NFDC Film Bazaar, said he met the 34-year-old actress years before she found international fame.
"I met Priyanka Chopra eight years ago because she could be the actress of the movie which I tried to make that time. She was not that famous at the time. She was Miss World. I had a chat with her and she was fantastic," Lee told PTI.
"I don't know much about her movies but I think she is more popular nowadays. She's a really great actress," Lee said.
Priyanka made her international acting debut with ABC's TV series "Quantico".
She will make her Hollywood film debut with "Baywatch" alongside Hollywood heavy-hitters including Dwayne Johnson.
