Priyanka Chopra Says Chef Sash’s Emotional Journey in ‘Born Hungry’ Hit Her Hard
Priyanka Chopra Jonas says she was deeply moved by the raw, emotional punch of the new documentary “Born Hungry,” which follows celebrity chef Sash Simpson’s astonishing rise from abandoned street kid in India to a celebrated culinary star in Canada.
Backed by Priyanka’s Purple Pebble Pictures along with Barry Avrich’s Melbar Entertainment Group, the film doesn’t shy away from Sash’s painful childhood — but it also celebrates the man he fought to become. It will stream on JioHotstar.
Speaking to IANS, Priyanka said what struck her most was the film’s balance of heartbreak and triumph. “The pain and the pleasure of seeing Sash’s story is exactly what makes it so moving,” she said, praising director Barry Avrich for capturing both the scars and the strength that define Sash’s journey.
She added that Sash’s relentless drive stayed with her long after watching it. “His tenacity inspires me. His sense of purpose resonates with me. The parent he is today merging with the child who’s still searching for identity — that’s incredibly moving,” she said, hoping the film’s reach on JioHotstar helps him find the answers he seeks.
Priyanka, long known for championing impactful storytelling, has produced several acclaimed projects including Paani, Ventilator, Pahuna: The Little Visitors, The Sky Is Pink, To Kill A Tiger, and Anuja.

Madhuri Dixit Drops Her Glam for Grit in Chilling ‘Mrs Deshpande’ Teaser
Madhuri Dixit is back — but not the Madhuri fans are used to. The actress unveils a shockingly raw, de-glam look in the first teaser for her upcoming thriller “Mrs Deshpande,” releasing December 19.
The teaser sets the tone instantly: Madhuri quietly chops vegetables, humming her hit “Bholi Si Surat,” while a radio bulletin warns of a serial killer on the loose. The contrast between her innocent smile and the dark tension in the room is enough to give anyone chills.
Directed by Nagesh Kukunoor and backed by Applause Entertainment and Kukunoor Movies, the series is the Hindi adaptation of the French thriller “La Mante.” It also stars Siddharth Chandekar and Priyanshu Chatterjee.
Kukunoor said he envisioned only Madhuri for the complex title role, calling her performance a “guaranteed shocker” that reveals layers fans have never seen before.
Madhuri agrees the role pushes her into completely new territory. “It’s raw, unfiltered, and strips away the glamour people expect from me,” she said. “You think you know her… until you don’t.”
“Mrs Deshpande” promises a killer twist — and a killer performance from Madhuri herself.
Sonali Bendre Slams Supreme Court Order to Clear Stray Dogs From Public Spaces
Sonali Bendre is not holding back. The actress has come out swinging against the Supreme Court’s recent order to remove stray dogs from public places, calling the move harsh, unfair, and damaging to countless innocent animals.
In a strongly worded Instagram post, Sonali highlighted how community dogs often act as quiet guardians — offering protection, companionship, and loyalty without asking for anything in return. She warned that a “blanket decision” like this punishes every street dog, friendly or not.
One of the images she shared showed confused dogs with the caption, “We have been jailed! What’s happening?” and explained that once strays are picked up from schools, hospitals, stations, and government buildings, they’ll be sent to shelters and barred from returning to their old territories.
Her post comes after the Supreme Court, on November 7, ordered all States and Union Territories to remove stray dogs from key public areas and relocate them to shelters after sterilisation and vaccination under the Animal Birth Control Rules, 2023.
The ruling has split the entertainment industry — with some stars backing the move for safety reasons, while others, like Sonali, argue it goes against basic compassion and animal welfare.
