BOLLYWOOD superstar Priyanka Chopra-Jonas now has one more thing to boast about since her one-on-one chat with iconic talk show host Oprah Winfrey, which allowed her to open up on various aspects of her life, including her recently complete memoir.
The 38-year-old actress, who has also made her way into Hollywood, more so with her marriage to American singer and actor Nick Jonas, already has her “Unfinished” memoir on the New York Times bestseller.
“Just like so many of us, I have grown up watching Oprah and been so inspired by her story, so to be a guest on her show is pretty special. Also, the fact that she read my memoir is,” Chopra-Jonas expressed in an Instagram post.
“She has a unique perspective on things and makes the conversation so insightful and fun. I had the best time. Thank you for having me Oprah. It was such a pleasure,” she added.

During the show, the actress told Oprah that although she had committed to writing the book since 2018, the time she got during the pandemic helped to push the project forward. Between all those flights and little time I would get in hotel rooms, I could just never write, but I had this time because of COVID and that helped me delve deep.” She said the book helps her to forget the insecurities that plagued her in her younger days. “I also feel like I am….as a woman…in a little bit more of a secure place where I felt like I could leave behind the insecurities of my 20’s and not worry about the things that used to scare me before.”
Completing the book has also helped to inspire more confidence in her and what she can accomplish professionally and personally.

“So I think that really helped me address my life and I always just wanted to write a book and I thought the easiest way to do it would be to write about my life,” Chopra-Jonas told Oprah. The former winner of the Miss World 2000 pageant, has said that her love for writing dates back as long as she can remember. “As a child, I used to write poetry and write in my diaries. There is something so healing and cathartic when putting your emotions and ideas on paper,” Priyanka, also a singer and film producer, has said publicly. “Ironically, I named this memoir years before I started writing it.

Having been a public person now for 20 years, with so much life to live and a long list of things to check off my list personally and professionally, I am very much #Unfinished. BUT the funny thing about writing a memoir is that it forces you to look at things differently, reconciling so many things you thought you had put to bed. In doing so I’ve realized that being ‘unfinished’ has a deeper meaning for me, and has in fact been one of the most common threads of my life,” the actress expressed.
The actress, with over 60 million Instagram followers, said over the past two decades, she was blessed to have had the opportunity to write for various publications, with each piece slightly reflecting the stages in her journey, opening up to the world a little more each time.
