Priyanka Chopra discusses her experience as an immigrant in the US as she introduces her home furnishings line: “I abandoned my roots”

As she introduced her new home furnishings line, Sona Home, Priyanka Chopra talked about her experience as an immigrant living in the United States and leaving her roots behind. The performer claimed that with Sona Home, she attempted to introduce a small element of her Indian ancestry to American homes. She also discussed how difficult it was for her to establish a second home for herself after moving to the country for work and eventually marrying singer-actor Nick Jonas.

Priyanka Chopra shared the information on her Instagram page on Wednesday. In a video, she and Sona Home co-founder Maneesh Goyal displayed the items from their line of home furniture. The actor said, “The core of Sona Home to me is family, community, and bringing people together, which is the thing about our culture in India,” when discussing her new company.

Maneesh continued, “If we’re having takeaway or a fantastic party, we want it to seem like it’s so much fun. Whatever we do with our friends or family should be anchored in culture and home, and should give us the feeling that there is nowhere else we would rather be.”

Priyanka went on, “Sona Home is founded on that. It has its roots in turning a house into a home. It was developed to foster community building among family and friends. And as an immigrant from India, that seems to me to be extremely significant. I moved away from home, but I came back to find you, my friends, and my family. This is my adopted nation, and you guys are my chosen family. And to be able to introduce the tradition of the region in which I grew up into households across America.”

In the caption of the video, which said, “I also talked about relocating to America,” “To introduce Sona Home to you all, I could not be more proud. Coming from India and establishing America as my second home was difficult, but my travels brought me to a place where I was able to build friends and a second family. This is an outgrowth of the idea that I infuse a little bit of India into everything I do.” In a different post, she also included images of the items in her home furnishings collection.

For her next Amazon Prime Video series Citadel, the actor recently finished scheduling. Additionally, she is working on the albums Ending Things and It’s All Coming Back To Me.

Family Star review

The Hindustan Times’ review of the movie Family Star, starring Vijay Deverakonda and directed by Parasuram Petla, suggests that the film struggles to make a mark or entertain, with issues reminiscent of Geetha Govindam (2018). The film tests patience and fails to maintain interest as it progresses.

The review criticizes the plot of Family Star, stating that it is thin and defies logic, making it difficult to enjoy. It also suggests that the film’s portrayal of middle-class life is caricaturish, as if it was written by someone unfamiliar with the realities of such a life.
