Actress Priyanka Chopra's cousin Meera has clarified that there is no tiff between them but they are not the best of friends either.
"There is no tiff as such. In fact, our families are very close. My parents are very close to Priyanka's parents. It's just that we are not close buddies. So there is no tiff between us," Meera said at the muhurat of her film "Gang of Ghosts" here Thursday.
National Award-winning actress Priyanka made her debut in Bollywood with the 2003 film "The Hero: Love Story of a Spy" after winning the Miss World crown in 2000. In 2011, her cousin Parineeti entered the showbiz with `Ladies vs Ricky Bahl`.
"I would not take any tips from Priyanka because I myself have been working in the south for the last three years. I have done 20 movies in the south and I personally feel I am a very good actress. So I would not take any acting tips," said the actress here at the mahurat of the film.
Meera, who made her debut with Tamil film "Anbe Aaruyire" in 2007, however, idolises Priyanka for her `hard work and dedication`.
"Not only our family, everybody who is not from the industry, who is a newcomer, should look up to her because when she came into the industry, she was completely new with no background,` she said.
"Whatever she is today is because of her hard work and dedication," she added.
Not new to showbiz, Meera made her debut in films with hit Tamil movie "Anbe Aaruyire" and went to do several southern movies like "Vaana" and "Maaro". Now she is entering the Hindi film industry with director Satish Kaushik's "Gang of Ghosts". She is confident the film will be a hit. "When Satishji narrated the script, I was laughing like crazy. So, when you laugh that much at narration, you can imagine how much the audience would laugh. So, I think it'll be a sure shot hit. It is very important to have a hit movie at the beginning," said Meera. She has also signed third instalment of Vikram Bhatt's "1920" franchise and is excited about her role. "I have been trying since last one year. My main aim was to work with good production houses, good directors and have a good role. My role in '1920' was so mind-blowing that when Vikram narrated me the script, I didn't even ask him who the actor was," she said.
