Several videos and pictures of Priyanka and Karl from the press shows of the film have been doing the rounds on the internet. However, on February 24, Priyanka decided to walk into a fully-packed theatre at the screening of The Bluff and personally meet the audience watching her film. In no time, the visuals of her visit went viral on the internet. In the videos, she can be seen interacting with the fans and thanking them for their support.

One of the fans present in the theatre shared the video of her visit on social media and wrote, "This week might be one of the busiest I've had this month, but hey, Priyanka Chopra-Jones showed up at our screening of THE BLUFF! (and that's why I was wondering why it took 40 minutes to start.)"

Those present at the screening described the atmosphere as electric. Chopra was seen exchanging heartfelt words and taking time to acknowledge the audience.

About The Bluff

The Bluff stars Chopra in a gritty, action-driven role as a former pirate who will go to any lengths to protect her daughter. The film's trailer starts on a deceptively calm evening at a remote home. Intruders disrupt the peace, and in a tense turn of events, Chopra's character hides her daughter in the basement as she confronts the attackers head-on.

The film is produced by AGBO Studios in association with Amazon MGM Studios, marking another association between the studios and Chopra after Citadel.

Apart from The Bluff, Priyanka will be making her comeback to Indian movies with SS Rajamouli's magnum opus Varanasi. She will be seen sharing screen with Mahesh Babu and Prithviraj Sukumaran in the film, which will hit theatres on April 7, 2027.
