Priyanka Chopra about her upcoming Amazon Prime Video series Citadel   revealed that this is the first time when she had 'pay parity with her male co-star in 22 years.'

Talking to Jennifer Salke, head of the Amazon Studios at the South by Southwest Film Festival on Friday, the Bollywood Diva said "I might get into trouble for [saying this], depends on who’s watching. I’ve been working in the entertainment industry for now 22 years, and I have done about almost 70-plus features and two TV shows. But when I did Citadel, it was the first time in my career that I had pay parity. I’m laughing about this, but it’s kind of nuts."

She further said: "I put in the same amount of investment and work, but I get paid much less. But the ease in which Amazon Studios said, ‘That’s what you deserve, you are co-leads, that’s just fair,’ and I was like, ‘You’re right, it’s fair.’ And I wonder: Did that happen because there are very few female decision-makers in Hollywood? Would that have been a different conversation if a woman didn’t make that decision? Those are not conversations that happened very easily."

In Citadel, Priyanka will be seen in the key role opposite Richard Madden, on which the trailer for the spy-thriller was released by the streaming platform on March 7.
