Priyanka Chopra says she
enjoyed playing an evil character in her latest film, Baywatch. The filmis based
on the 90s popular television beach drama where Priyanka plays the character, Victoria Leeds
opposite Dwayne Johnson. The actor recently opened up that she truly enjoys
being bad on the silver screen because it’s something one does not get to do in
real life.
The best part of working on Baywatch is to be the villain of the movie. I don’t think The Rock aka Dwayne Johnson has ever had anyone who’s been mean to him. He’s a great guy but Victoria is a bitch. Victoria is mean and patronising and evil just because she can be and I don’t know if Dwayne’s ever had that. So to me that was the best part of doing Baywatch and getting on my high heels and on my tippy toes and doing mean things and getting away with it. I enjoyed it way more than I should. Being bad is like an addiction, because we don’t get to do that in real life.

Priyanka is busy shooting for the second season of her American thrillerQuantico which will air in September. The actress said that it will show her character, Alex Parish, completely out of her element.
I mean we are so used to Alex being the tough girl who has the situation under control and she fixes things. Here she is just completely out of her league, completely out of her element with what happens to her in season two and she just can’t get a grip on anything. It’ll be very exciting for me to play and you to watch.
