After a good stint in Hollywood, Priyanka Chopra is ready for her second innings in Bollywood. Apart from Bharat with Salman Khan, Priyanka will team up again with Hrithik Roshan for Krrish 4. She is also working on The Sky Is Pink, a film by Shonali Bose, who directed the widely-appreciated Margarita With A Straw.
While the Quantico actress has many films to her credit, on her birthday, here’s a quick playlist of some popular songs from her films.
Desi Girl
Singers: Sunidhi Chauhan, Vishal Dadlani, Shankar Mahadevan

It was this song from Dostana, which gave Priyanka the tag ‘desi girl’. The song is a peppy number featuring Priyanka, John Abraham and Abhishek Bachchan. Priyanka’s sizzling dance moves, and John and Abhishek’s hilarious act make this song funny and groovy at the same time.
Phir Le Aaya Dil

This ghazal is from the 2012 film Barfi. The song, composed by Pritam, has three versions. While the original is sung by Rekha Bhardwaj, the reprise and redux versions are rendered by Arijit Singh and Shafqat Amanat Ali. The music video features Ranbir Kapoor, Ileana D’Cruz and Priyanka Chopra. This one might just be perfect for a rainy evening.

Written by Siddharth-Garima, this song from Ram Leela portrays the relationship between the protagonists of the film – Ram (Ranveer Singh) and Leela (Deepika Padukone). The song has Priyanka Chopra grooving to moves choreographed by Vishnu Deva.
