Miss India trainer Sabira Merchant recently spoke to a leading daily wherein she described about the journey of Priyanka Chopra. Many would be aware that the actress, who is now an international star, started her journey in the entertainment industry as a beauty pageant winner. Not only did she win the coveted title of Miss India but she went on to become Miss World in the year 2000. Sabira Merchant, who has trained several females for the pageants, described about what made Priyanka Chopra.
The first thing that Sabira pointed out was that Priyanka Chopra came to the pageant with an American accent.

At the same time, she went on to describe about how challenging it was to remove the accent. Since Priyanka Chopra was appearing as a contestant from India, Sabira was sure that her American accent wouldn’t be accepted. She maintained that Priyanka had a sort of a nasal twang and it may have made her sound like a Yankee person. Her attempt was to at least have Priyanka speak in global English if not an Indian accent.
However, Sabira was quick to point out that Priyanka Chopra was always a hardworking woman. It was her childlike curiosity and enthusiasm that left Merchant impressed so much that she still recollects, the now superstar in that manner. Reminiscing about one such incident Sabira revealed that Priyanka once followed her to SNDT University where she was teaching, to ask her questions. Despite saying that the work for the day was done, Priyanka wouldn’t stop at it and constantly strived on improving herself.
