In a heartfelt trip down memory lane, Priyanka Chopra Jonas recently reminisced about the film that became a pivotal moment in her Bollywood journey. She marked the 16th anniversary of Kaminey with fond appreciation, calling it a "turning point" in her career an experience shaped by creative trust, rigorous preparation, and unforgettable collaborators.

She also lauded Shahid Kapoor’s sensational double role and remembered Amol Gupte and makeup artist Mubina Rattonsey, whom she met for the first time during this shoot.

Beyond its blockbuster status, Kaminey became a creative launchpad that transformed her screen persona from glamorous roles to nuanced, layered performances. Following that film, she embraced more challenging work across genres earning critical acclaim in Fashion, Barfi!, and Mary Kom, and eventually crossing over into Hollywood and web series.
