Priyanka Chopra was so popular with boys as a teen her father installed bars over her bedroom window
Priyanka Chopra has revealed that her father placed metal bars in front of her bedroom window when she started dating as a teenager.
The Indian actress, 40, who was crowned Miss World at the age of 18, said the incident happened after a lovesick teenager jumped onto her balcony.
She related what had happened and said, “One of them jumped onto my balcony at night, I saw [the teen] and yelled. My father came and he left.”
“The next day my dad said, ‘You need rules. F*** this!’ Bars, all your jeans have been confiscated, you are going to wear Indian suits.’
Priyanka was born in Jamshedpur to two doctors and grew up with a brother, Siddharth. She was crowned Miss India before winning Miss World in 2000.

It comes after the stunner slammed the star-studded Met Gala after attending the event in NYC.
Turns out Nick Jonas’ wife felt the dinner would have been more satisfying if the caterers had served some bread and butter. ‘There was no bread for dinner […] I was so hungry afterwards,” the Indian-born star shared Good morning America on Thursday.
“Maybe I have unrealistic expectations, but one sandwich would be enough.”
The dinner menu consisted of “chilled spring pea soup with baby vegetables, lemon crème fraîche and truffle snow, followed by Ōra King salmon with vegetable nage, asparagus, pickled strawberries and radishes – all served on vintage china,” Vogue reported.
Priyanka said her husband came to the rescue: “My husband ordered pizza by the time we got to the hotel, so it was fine.”
And Chopra admitted that her criticism may have led to her being kicked off the 2024 guest list.
There goes my invitation for next year. If you don’t see me at the Met, you’ll know why.”
The Quantico actress wore a pale pink satin dress that showed off her legs on the morning show.
And she was joined by actor Sam Heughan to discuss the new rom-com movie Love Again.

They also hit karaoke singing Celine Dion’s classic hits after days of filming, as well as shooting with both Dion and Chopra’s husband, Nick.
GMA also gave viewers an exclusive first listen to Dion’s new song I’ll Be from the film’s soundtrack.
The synopsis reads: ‘To cope with the loss of her fiancé, Mira Ray sends a series of romantic texts to his old mobile number, never realizing it had been reassigned to journalist Rob Burns.
Rob is captivated by the honesty of her words in the beautifully constructed lyrics. When he is assigned to write a profile of superstar Celine Dion, he enlists her help to figure out how to meet Mira in person and win her heart.

Priyanka’s Met Gala food commentary comes after Teyana Taylor said she ate a plate full of Chick-fil-A that she brought herself.
Teyana, 32, was called out by table mate Pusha T, 45, who joked that she “embarrassed” him for bringing the fast food to the exclusive bash.
“@teyanataylor embarrasses me. She took @chicfilausa to the #MetGala. I want her away from me… #HARLEM,” he wrote on an Instagram video capturing her plate full of fries, fried chicken and a hint of dip.
Even Usher, 44, tried to intervene — the R&B artist chuckled at the sight of Teyana munching on her fast food.
“#HARLEM @teyanataylor @usher tried to stop her…” Pusha T posted, along with a face-sleeping emoji.
Yum! While Met Gala guests dined on bowls of gourmet pea soup, Teyana Taylor enjoyed a different kind of fare at the A-list event — a plateful of Chick-fil-A she brought herself
