OT Your favourite destination in the world
Priyanka Chopra Home I&rsquom hardly there. But seriously, I can never have enough of USA and Mauritius I&rsquom a complete beach bum. In India, I like Jaipur because of its colours and its regal, old-world charm.
OT What does a vacation mean to you
Priyanka Chopra It&rsquos strictly for rejuvenation, for me-time. Or if I am lucky to have my family with me, it&rsquos about having lots of fun together. I love exploring new places and, thankfully, my job gives me ample opportunity to travel. Holidays also mean stepping out of my workwear and being myself &mdash you&rsquoll only find me in a pair of basic blue jeans and a white T-shirt with no make-up. It&rsquos a refreshing change.
OT Any memorable work holidays
Priyanka Chopra Shooting for Dostana was less like work and more like a vacation. It was so much fun. We were in Miami for two full months and I was so fresh and rested when I came back. It was like a really relaxed holiday. And it helped that everybody on the crew got along so well with each other. Each of us connected at a deeper level. I also loved Brazil when I shot there for Khatron Ke Khiladi because I had never been there and always wanted to see that part of the world.
OT Are you a souvenir hunter
Priyanka Chopra I love picking up trinkets. I remember buying a prized lava [rock] ring while shooting at Miami.
OT You never forget to pack&hellip
Priyanka Chopra My laptop. I have to stay in touch. Besides, it has plenty of important data, my photos, my music&hellip I also always pack at least four pairs of sunglasses, loads of sunblock, some books and my watch.
OT Any anecdotes
Priyanka Chopra Oh yes, plenty. I had once gone to Phuket with my friends and we were making sandcastles on the beach and suddenly this man started yelling &mdash &ldquoMimi, Mimi&rdquo, which is my pet name. I had taken great pains to organise a trip to a place where I thought nobody would recognise me, and here I was being hollered at from across the beach. I ducked behind one of my friends. Later though, another friend of mine told me how Mimi was a common name in Thailand. And the man was just calling out to his daughter
OT One place you&rsquove longed to visit
Priyanka Chopra Now that I have crossed Brazil off my wishlist, it will have to be Mexico. I can&rsquot wait to get there.
