Priyanka rocks!

After releasing three singles off her first music album in the US and voicing an Indian character in Disney Toon film Planes, Priyanka Chopra is all set to take her Hollywood stint to the next level. According to the latest buzz, the Mary Kom actress has been signed on for a talent holding deal with American TV network ABC.

As part of the one-year pact under the network’s diversity casting programme, ABC will either incorporate Chopra in an existing show or launch a new project starring her. This is a first-of-its-kind deal for Chopra, who became the first Indian celebrity to have been signed on as the global face of Guess last year. Chopra’s Hollywood journey began with the release of her first single In My City, which was also used as the theme song to the 2013 season of the NFL Network’s Thursday Night Football. Subsequent singles — Exotic and I Can’t Make You Love Me — gained popularity upon release as well.

According to reports, ABC executive Keli Lee, who spearheads the network’s diversity casting programme, travelled to Mumbai to sign Chopra.
