In a recent interview, Parineeti Chopra opened up about her transformative journey for her role as Amarjot Kaur in the movie "Amar Singh Chamkila." The actress garnered widespread acclaim for her remarkable portrayal, which showcased her dedication to her craft. Parineeti's commitment to authenticity led her to gain 15 kg for the role, a decision that underscored her commitment to bringing her character to life.

Through her transformative performance, Parineeti has once again solidified her position as one of Bollywood's most talented and versatile stars.
Imtiaz Ali, the director, suggested that she put on weight and wear less makeup in order to represent Amarjot Kaur more accurately. Parineeti concurred, stating that she wished to give her job her all, despite acquaintances in the business cautioning her against putting on weight since it might harm her career. Parineeti decided to minimise her public appearances and stay away from the red carpet scene because of her dramatic weight gain and concentration on the movie.

Taking cues from fellow actress Vidya Balan, who put on weight for her part in "The Dirty Picture," Parineeti is resolved to put her art and character interpretations ahead of public perceptions. She thinks that her commitment to her roles eventually results in significant and gratifying employment in the film business.
