Priyanka Padma Shri

"I do have a phenomenal team because they handle two continents of my scheduling and more than anything else, they make sure that nobody gets pissed off because I am spread too thin," said Priyanka Chopra

Luckily, she had help in the form of tennis star Sania Mirza, who received the Padma Bhushan. "We were separated - the Shris, the Bhushans, the Vibhushans," said Priyanka - so communication with Sania had to be via hand signals.

India sees very little of Priyanka Chopra now. The actress recently wrapped the second season of her American TV show Quantico and will head back to USA to shoot Baywatch, the film version of the superhit TV show

Anupam Kher received the Padma Bhushan in a ceremony in New Delhi on Monday. Ajay Devgn, in a black bandhgala, received the Padma Shri. The Padma Awards are being handed out in two separate ceremonies. On Tuesday, Rajinikanth will receive the Padma Vibhushan while Priyanka will receive the Padma Shri

"What a fabulous January to begin my year with. I'm the daughter of an Army officer. So, the feeling of receiving this civilian award is extremely special," said Priyanka Chopra. The actress is currently in Montreal, where she is shooting for her television series Quantico

Tamil superstar Rajinikanth will receive the Padma Vibhushan, the country's second-highest civilian honour. Actor Anupam Kher and singer Udit Narayan will receive the Padma Bhushan. Priyanka Chopra and Ajay Devgn will receive the Padma Shri
