Priyanka's mother
Madhu Chopra
, brother Siddharth Chopra, and sister-in-law Neelam Upadhyaya planned a sweet surprise by hosting a private screening of 'Heads of State' back home.
They posed happily in front of a poster from the film, clearly excited to see Priyanka shine on the big screen.
Sharing the lovely moment on her Instagram, Priyanka wrote, "When your family hosts a screening back home. FOMO. Miss you all."
Working with John Cena and Idris Elba was 'fantastic'
As reported by Money Control, Priyanka spoke about what it was like teaming up with John Cena and Idris Elba. She shared that the experience was "fantastic," and she never felt left out or awkward on set.
The project first took shape when Cena and Elba, after working together on 'Suicide Squad', decided they wanted to collaborate again. Seeing the potential, producer Peter Safran brought the idea to life, and soon 'Heads of State' was born. Priyanka loved being a part of this journey. Even though she was the only woman in a team full of strong male energy, she said she always felt included and thoroughly enjoyed herself.

A perfect mix of action and comedy
The Etimes review has praised 'Heads of State' for striking the right balance between action and comedy. It reads, 'As an action-comedy, the film strikes a fine balance between both genres—neither overshadowing the other. Amid the adrenaline-pumping sequences, there's plenty of room for laughter. Much of the comedy stems from Elba and Cena's sharp repartee, with their flawless comic timing and undeniable chemistry adding to the film's charm.
'
It also highlights the exciting range of action scenes, from dramatic fights on Air Force One and speedy train chases to a light-hearted clash with some Polish punk teenagers. As the review puts it, 'From serious fights aboard Air Force One to one on a speeding train and those on the roads to a silly skirmish with Polish punk teenagers, every action sequence is thrilling.'
