priyanka working on her past

Working in Madhur Bhandarkar 's forthcoming film Fashion was a walk down memory lane for Bollywood star Priyanka Chopra .

"If you remember, I started my professional life as a model. And now while doing 'Fashion', I met up with my friends from my modelling days... Noyonika Chatterjee, Jesse Randhawa, Aanchal Kumar... That was the best part of doing 'Fashion'," Priyanka said.
"When I was modelling I was 17. So it's like a whole era has passed between then and now," Priyanka said, who was seen in a 'futuristic' look in her latest release Love Story 2050 .

But Priyanka adds that she isn't that experienced as a model.

"I modelled for only three months ... between the Miss India and Miss World pageants. But yeah it was fun. I was a wide-eyed excited child then. Yes, I'm using my experiences as a model to play my character in 'Fashion'," said the former Miss World.

Priyanka's character in the film undergoes a tremendous metamorphosis.

"And I've gone through that metamorphosis myself. Like my character, I was a small-town girl finding my way through the modelling world when I came to Mumbai. A lot of it is derived from my own experiences."

Priyanka says shooting for films and modelling are completely different.
