Parineeti Chopra is an Indian actress who works in Hindi movies. She was born on 22 October 1988 to Pawan Chopra and Reena Chopra in Ambala, Haryana, India. She has two younger brothers, Sahaj Chopra and Shivang Chopra. 1 | |
| Her parents named her Parineeti after they saw Prakash Jha’s movie Parinati (1989) based on a folk tale from Rajasthan and fell in love with it. 2 | |
| Parineeti did her schooling at the Convent of Jesus and Mary, Ambala. She was an outstanding student since childhood and was even awarded the President’s Medal by Pratibha Patil for securing the first position in Economics across India in SSC exams. | |
| She always wanted to become an investment banker so after completing her schooling, she moved to England, where she graduated with a triple honor’s degree in business, finance, and economics from Manchester Business School. While studying, she worked part-time for the Manchester United Football Club as the team leader of the catering department. Parineeti had to return to India during the 2009 economic recession as there were no jobs for bankers. She joined Yash Raj Films as a PR consultant in the marketing department. 3 | |
| Her father, Pawan Chopra is a businessman and worked as a supplier to the Indian Army at Ambala Cantonment. 4 | |
| Actresses Priyanka Chopra, Meera Chopra, and Barbie Handa are her cousin sisters. | |
| She made her acting debut in a supporting role in the 2011 film ‘Ladies vs Ricky Bahl’ starring Ranveer Singh and Anushka Sharma in lead roles. Her portrayal of the rebellious and independent girl Dimple Chadda garnered critical acclaim, earning her several awards, including the Filmfare Award, the Screen Award, and the IIFA Award for Best Female Debut. | |
| Parineeti was next seen in a leading role opposite Arjun Kapoor in Ishaqzaade (2012) which was a critical and commercial success, earning her a Special Mention at the 60th National Film Awards. | |
| She next appeared alongside Sushant Singh Rajput and Vaani Kapoor in the romantic comedy-drama film Shuddh Desi Romance (2013) directed by Maneesh Sharma. The film emerged as a box-office success. | |
| In 2014, she appeared alongside Sidharth Malhotra and Adah Sharma in the romantic comedy-drama film ‘Hasee Toh Phasee’ directed by Vinil Mathew, and it was also a commercial success at the box office. However, her other two 2014 releases ‘Daawat-e-Ishq’ opposite Aditya Roy Kapur and ‘Kill Dil’ alongside Ranveer Singh, Ali Zafar and Govinda received mixed reviews and failed at the box office. | |
| In 2015, Parineeti Chopra was roped in as the brand ambassador for the ‘Beti Bachao-Beti Padhao’ campaign to promote the cause of girl child by the Haryana government. However, there were some reports in 2019 claiming that Chopra was dropped as the Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao campaign’s state brand ambassador after she tweeted against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA). Later, the spokesperson of the Women & Child Development Ministry of the Haryana government clarified that the MOU signed with the actress was for one year only and it was not renewed after April 2017. 5 6 7 | |
| Parineeti is a trained Hindustani classical singer and has a B.A. Honours degree in music. She made her playback singing debut with the song “Maana Ke Hum Yaar Nahin” in her movie Meri Pyaari Bindu (2017). | |
| In 2018, she appeared in Forbes India’s Celebrity 100 at number 83, a list based on the income and popularity of Indian celebrities. 8 | |
She was featured on the cover page of Filmfare magazine’s October 2018 edition. | |
| Chopra starred opposite Akshay Kumar in Kesari (2019) and also recorded the female version of the ‘Teri Mitti’ song of the movie. The film was a major commercial success at the box office, earning over ₹200 crore at the box office. | |
Parineeti Chopra got married to Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Raghav Chadha on 24 September 2023 in an intimate wedding ceremony at The Leela Palace, Udaipur, which was attended by their family and close friends. The couple had a “no-gifts policy” at their wedding and they took only a milni of Rs. 11. Parineeti also sang a song titled ‘O Piya’ for Raghav at their wedding. 9 | |
| Parineeti charges approximately Rs 5 Crores per movie and her estimated net worth is around Rs. 60 Crores. On the other hand, the estimated net worth of Parineeti’s husband, Raghav Chadha is Rs. 50 lakhs, which makes Parineeti 120 times richer than Raghav. 10 | |
| She will next appear opposite Akshay Kumar in the upcoming survival thriller film Mission Raniganj: The Great Bharat Rescue (2023) based on the story of Jaswant Singh Gill, a mining engineer from IIT Dhanbad who rescued 64 miners trapped in a mine at Raniganj Coalfields in 1989. 11 | |
