But Jacqueline wasn’t Tarun’s (director of the movie) first choice to play Jessie in Drive. He wanted the global icon “Priyanka Chopra” to play the female lead. Unfortunately, PeeCee had to turn down the offer but Tarun waited for her to get back to him with dates. However, her commitments in the West didn’t allow her to take on a new project and there came a point when Tarun had to either start or shelve the project. That’s when he started scouring for his leading lady and found his Jessie in Jacqueline.

Right now Priyanka is busy shooting for Quantico season 3 in Italy.
