Will take her parents along to Berlin for Don 2 shoot
Priyanka Chopra who barely spends any time with her parents in Mumbai, thanks to her busy schedule, will now take them along to Berlin for the shooting of Don 2.
The problem is they might freak out on seeing their laadli beti perform dangerous stunts with Shah Rukh Khan.u00a0 "Yeah, but I'd rather risk their concern than lose the opportunity to have them around," says PC.
Happy I'm busy
The actress was meant to spend time with her parents and also practise her stunts for Don 2 before leaving for Berlin. Now, those two things will happen on location.

The extra week of promotion required for her new film Anjaana Anjaani (as the film was pushed) has taken its toll on her plans.
But sheu00a0 isn't complaining. "No-one can foresee these things. Ranbir and I had to give up the time we had set asideu00a0 for our families for added promotion.

It's all part of the game. But yes, I do regret that lost that precious time with my parents that I had planned well in advance. But I don't think I'd want it any other way. My folks are happy to see me busy."
On the run
She jokes about a similarity she sees between Anjaana Anjaani and Don 2, "One required me to be on the run. The other requires me to run as fast as SRK."u00a0
After her physically exhausting schedules last year (she was even in hospital) PC's parents are naturally worried about the amount of time she spends working, "But what to do? I can't act like this chui-mui (fragile person) who cracks under pressure.
Nobody forces me to do any of these physically and emotionally exhausting jobs. I enjoy them. I need to keep pushing myself further with every role. And my parents would just have to understand."
