"Success is not a destination. Success is a journey. You are successful if you are consistently successful," Priyanka said in an interview here.
When asked whether money matters, Priyanka said, "I do make money as I work very hard for what I do. I don't sleep at night; I work 16 hours a day. I don't have weekends or birthdays or Diwali."
Commenting on whether Hollywood would be the next step, the 34-year-old actress said, "I have an agent in America since five years but I do work on my own terms. I am a star here in Hindi cinema so I don't want to do anything for the heck of it. I have no desperation to prove a point to someone. I would do films there if it excites me."
Earlier Deepika Padukone had revealed that Priyanka was the first industry friend she made in Bollywood. To which Priyanka added, "We had common friends. We used to meet for movies and dinners."
