Priyanka has always been a well-behaved youngster.

Priyanka didn’t want to work in movies, according to Madhu, who revealed this information. Through someone else, she received the offer for the south Indian movie. Priyanka broke down in tears and stated, “I am not doing films,” when I told her about the offer. She has, nevertheless, always been a docile youngster. She consented and signed the contract (for Thamizhan) when I persuaded her to accept the offer.”

“Priyanka was unable to initially match Vijay’s steps.”

Madhu went on, “She started to admire the movie when we were filming it. She liked it even if she didn’t speak the language. The personnel was really kind and helpful to her. The movie’s lead, Vijay, is the epitome of a gentleman. The dancer was Raju Sundaram. Priyanka did alright at the dance, but at first she had trouble matching Vijay’s steps. She would spend the entire day rehearsing with the choreographer. After that, she began to appreciate it. She was also able to develop her character and realize that she wanted to make a career out of this.”
