Mumbai: Priyanka Chopra might soon be seen working under her prospective mum-in-law Neelima Azim (Shahid Kapur’s mother) on her directorial debut.According to the latest Bollywood news, Azim has approached Priyanka Chopra to star in her film. Quite interestingly, Shahid is known to be aware of this development and has no objections to his mother`s choice, despite speculations suggesting a rift between him and Priyanka after the former failed to turn up at latter’s birthday party. Neelima, in a statement, confirmed approaching Priyanka. She said, “Yes, I met up with Priyanka at her house. She is the only girl in the industry whom I have approached. She fits the role.” When asked about Shahid and Priyanka’s much talked about turbulent relationship, the former actress and danseuse said, “As Shahid`s mother, I know what the truth is. We are a progressive family. If somebody has a cosy and friendly relationship with a girl, it does not necessarily mean that they are physically and emotionally involved or committed to each other.” Though Neelima is not sure about whether Priyanka will say a ‘yes’ but she says, “I get along very well with Priyanka. It`s a very professional, but warm relationship. Of course, it will all depend on who the male actor is. Priyanka is in a certain league. If I get a damn good actor, but not a top star, I don`t expect her to step in. But then, she may still sign up due to the fact that she loved the character which I want her to play.”
