Parineeti Chopra is known for her strong acting mettle and bubbly nature that simply wins hearts at any given moment. For the unversed, Parineeti has delivered some power-packed performances, including Ishaqzaade, Daawat-E-Ishq, The Girl On The Train, Uunchai, Ladies Vs Ricky Bahl among others. A triple-honours degree holder from Manchester Business School, she has also received several awards and accolades, including a National and a Filmfare Award. In her personal life, she recently got engaged to AAP leader, Raghav Chadha and she couldn’t be any happier.
Recently, a Reddit user shared an old clip of Parineeti Chopra and Aditya Roy Kapur, when they graced the talk show, Koffee With Karan. In the video, the host, Karan Johar can be seen first being apprehensive of speaking about Parineeti’s weight loss journey. However, when the actress agreed to it, Karan then revealed how Parineeti was petrified of Katrina Kaif, seeing her impeccable dedication towards fitness. Agreeing to the same, Parineeti then agreed to the statement and revealed an interesting anecdote with Katrina Kaif at the gym. In her words:
“Still scared of her. That day she came to the gym and I quickly increased the speed of my cycle. I was like, I’m doing. She’s like, what are you doing? How many minutes have you done. So, I was like, 20 minutes. She said, five more minutes. So, I was like okay whatever you say I’ll do. Even today, I message her all the time to ask her about fitness and everything. And she really takes the time to care. She’s really such a beautiful person.”

Moreover, there were a few more users who even commented Parineeti’s acting chops and compared it to Vidya Balan. While one user wrote, “Parineeti is always being questioned about her weight and weight loss. This is so disrespectful. What is the obsession with shaming people for their weight”, another netizen commented, “She was always beautiful. It’s a shame that she was bullied and made to feel insecure by her co-stars and media”.

Although Parineeti got engaged to her soulmate, Raghav Chadha in 2023, way back, in one of her interviews, she had spoken about the kind of qualities she would want in the man of her dreams. Well, surely, Raghav ticks off most of them, as Parineeti talked about a strong man, sensible, and mature, among others. She could be quoted as saying:
“I need a strong man to fall in love with. I also want my man to have a great sense of humour. He should be sensible, mature and I don’t care if he is 20 years older than me.” Parineeti added, “I have never been on a romantic date. If I fall in love, I would love to go on a date, but I don’t miss it. I will date a person only if I fall in love with him.”
