We have our Bollywood actresses like Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone who have gone to the West to make a mark in Hollywood. But there is one actress who has come from the the US to Bollywood.

Yes, we are talking about Nargis Fakhri. This New Yorker bagged a Paul Feig film, ‘Spy’ after she came to India to act. But after that, she hasn’t concentrated much on her Hollywood career. Speaking about how ‘Spy’ came in her kitty, the actress revealed, “My Hollywood career happened by accident. Like ‘Rockstar’ just happened to me. I have been lucky to get such great breaks. I get a film (Spy) with one of the best directors in Hollywood and lovely character to start off with, it was a blockbuster summer hit. Who could ask for anything better? For Spy, Paul told me it was a small role and I was busy, but I was like ‘Hello, you are Paul Fieg and duhhh! I would be honoured to work with you’. Paul’s very shy, so he laughed. Then I did it. I am happy.”

But she reveals how she would love to pursue her career further in Hollywood and says, “I would like to pursue my Hollywood career further. I have got some offers for audition opportunities but unfortunately, there were four Bollywood films to complete at that time. I don’t know let’s see… Maybe when Banjo comes out, I will take time out and go back home and then maybe do some auditions. I don’t want to leave Bollywood forever as I enjoy it too much but if I can do half-and-half, it would be a blessing. I think you just have to have patience and passion for the right opportunity to come to you because it takes a long time in any career.”
