New Delhi: Priyanka Bajaj Sibal won the Mrs India title in 2023, stepping into the world of glamour and modelling. Beyond her beauty pageant success, she has now ventured into acting, taking on the lead role in the upcoming short film 'Kathakaar' where she portrays a cop tasked with solving a child trafficking case. The film stars Ruslaan Mumtaz alongside her in the lead role. She also joined the Miss Universe Tamil Nadu 2024 as a jury member for its Grand Finale. In a conversation with Zee News Digital, Priyanka opened up about her journey ahead. 

Q. What made you switch from modelling to acting in ‘Kathakaar’?

A. Transitioning from modelling to acting in Kathakaar was a natural evolution for me. Modelling allowed me to express myself in still frames but acting offered a new challenge—bringing a character to life and telling a story through emotions and dialogue. Kathakaar presented the perfect opportunity to dive into a narrative that resonated deeply with me, allowing me to explore a different facet of creativity and connect with audiences on a more personal level.
