R Madhavan applauds Priyanka Chopra Jonas and her dominance in Hollywood; says, “Half the heroes in India would love that role”In a recent interview with Siddharth Kannan, Madhavan showered Priyanka with praise for not only taking on the lead role in a big-budget Hollywood action-comedy but doing so with effortless command. “She has nonchalantly gone there and taken the main lead in such a massive Hollywood project. She’s done action in the film, and I think half of the heroes in India would love to be in her position, playing a role in that kind of movie,” Madhavan said, pointing to her groundbreaking work in a genre historically dominated by male leads.

Priyanka plays Noel Bisset, a fearless MI6 operative who joins forces with characters played by John Cena and Idris Elba in this high-stakes, globe-trotting adventure. With razor-sharp delivery and unmatched screen presence, Priyanka has been praised across the board for not just holding her own—but stealing the show. “I’m a really big fan of how she is and how she’s carried herself. I am very proud of her,” R Madhavan added.

He also took to social media to share his thoughts on Heads of State, calling it a “victory that feels personal,” highlighting the significance of Priyanka’s achievement for South Asian representation in global cinema.

Comedian Zarna Garg echoed the sentiment in the comments of a fan post, writing, “Appreciate a brown dude who spills facts.” From Quantico to Citadel and now Heads of State, Priyanka Chopra Jonas continues to blaze trails for South Asian talent — with grace, grit, and undeniable global impact.
