Priyanka Chopra recently appeared on The Howard Stern Show, and opened up about a dark phase of her life.
PeeCee talked about slipping into depression after her nasal polyps surgery.
As per reports, Priyanka revealed that after she won the Miss World crown in 2000, she went to a doctor to check why she was having trouble breathing, which was coupled with a “lingering head cold.”
According to the actor, the doctor had found a polyp (tissue growth) and suggested surgery to get it removed from her nasal cavity.
But during the surgery, Priyanka claimed, the doctor accidentally shaved the bridge of her nose, causing it to collapse and thus altering her face. “It was a dark phase,” the actor said as she revealed she was fired from three films after that and believed her acting career “was over before it started.” “This thing happens, and my face looks completely different, and I went into a deep, deep depression,” Priyanka added.
The actor said the situation got so bad that she didn’t want to leave the house, which is when her father, a doctor himself, encouraged her to go back under the knife and get corrective surgery done. “I was terrified of that, but he was like, ‘I will be in the room with you. He held my hands through it and helped me build back my confidence.”
