Priyanka Chopra’s cousin Meera, who made her Tamil films debut in 2005 with ‘Anbe Aaruyire’ and did few Bollywood projects, says that her relationship with the International star didn’t help in getting roles.
“The only time when I came to Bollywood there was a buzz that Priyanka’s sister is also coming but honestly I have not faced many comparisons. I have not got any work because of Priyanka. If I needed a producer, they have not cast me as I am her sister,” she told in an interview with Zoom.

“Honestly, being related to her has not helped me in my career but it has really helped me in a way that people did take me seriously. They did not take me for granted as they knew was coming from a family who knew cinema. That is the only privilege I got. Otherwise, I had to struggle. Honestly, with my work like every time my movie used to leave fortunately I have not been compared to both of them”, added Meera.
Meera ‘ Bollywood movies include ‘1920 London’ and ‘Section 375. She also did Telugu film industry in 2006 with ‘Bangaram’.
Priyanka has two other cousins in the industry – Parineeti and Mannara.
