- Before you go, I want to play
a quick segment with you
called "Hot Celebs, Cold Reads."
[camera shutter clicks, silly music]
So, PC, considering it's almost Valentine's Day,
I thought I would give you some iconic Hollywood
and Hindi film lines for you to recite,
and I'll give you some direction.
Does that sound cool? - Okay, let's do it.
- First, let's just get you to do a normal slate.
Please slate yourself.
- Hi, everyone. I'm Priyanka Chopra.
And I'm here for this audition.
- Okay. I love how I was so stressed out
about forgetting Jonas, but you didn't say Jonas.
- Oh, [bleep]! - [laughing]
- Because my work name for so many years--
- Thank you. Literally, before this interview started,
I was like, "Jonas! Jonas! Jonas!"
- Hi, everyone. I'm Priyanka Chopra Jonas.
And I'm here for this audition.
- All right, this one
is from iconic Hindi film "Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham."
It is, "Phat, pretty hot and tempting."
Just give me a cold read.
- Phat, pretty hot and tempting.
- Now, do it like you're at a wine tasting,
and you're trying to seem like you're impressed.
- Mmm...
Ah... [sniffs]
What's the word?
Phat, pretty hot...
mmm,
and tempting.
- [laughs] What about like you're training your dog?
- Phat, phat, phat.
Good boy, good boy, good boy.
Pretty...
pretty hot and tempting.
Good boy. Here you go. Good boo-boo-boo.
- I've never related to someone more than this moment.
[laughter]
Okay, this one is from "The Notebook."
"If you're a bird, I'm a bird." Just give me a cold read.
- If you're a bird, I'm a bird.
- Now, do it like you feel there's a hair in your mouth.
- If you're...
if you're a bird...
I'm--I'm a bird. Mm-hmm.
- [laughing]
Yo, this is me all day long. This is me all day long.
Truly.
- Why is there always a hair in your mouth, Lilly?
- 'Cause of this. - Hmm?
- Truly.
Okay, let's say you took acid 30 minutes ago,
and it's just starting to kick in right now.
- I-i-i-if you're-- if you're a bird...
I'm... [pounds table]
I'm a bird.
Bird. [laughter]
- This next one is gonna be from "Gunda."
You're very familiar, I'm sure. - Yeah.
- Just the first line or two of... [speaking Hindi]
Just a cold read.
- [speaking Hindi]
- Okay, now, can you do it like you're a sportscaster
giving live play-by-play?
- [speaking Hindi enthusiastically]
And, oh, my God! [speaking Hindi]
Yeah, that's what we want to hear, guys.
Let's give it up. Oh, my God.
Oh, my God, life-changing moment right there.
[speaking Hindi]
- [laughs]
What about if you were narrating a nature documentary?
- Oh, okay. Pivot.
[imitates whoosh]
[speaking Hindi]
- [laughs]
Yo, you're really good at this. What the hell? You're bomb.
Okay, I want to do a few more.
Okay, this is from "Gone with the Wind"--classic.
"You should be kissed and often and by someone who knows how."
Just give me a cold read.
- You should be kissed and often
by someone who knows how.
- I agree. I completely agree.
What if you were doing it now like you were a GPS?
- [robotic voice] You should be kissed and often
and by someone who knows how.
- [laughing]
Now pretend you're in a plane,
and you're about to jump to sky-dive.
- You should be kissed... [imitates wind whooshing]
And often and by someone who knows how!
- The commitment!
Compose yourself. Okay, last one.
Classic, you know I had to do this.
From "Dostana"...
Okay, I can't sing it-- copyright.
Frig! I'm like, "Damn, frig, copyright."
[speaking Hindi] ...desi girl.
Ain't nobody like my desi girl.
Give me a cold read, please.
- [speaking Hindi] ..desi girl.
Ain't nobody like my desi girl.
- Now, pretend your lip is still numb
because you just got back from the dentist.
- [mumbling in Hindi] ...desi girl.
[mumbling] Ain't nobody, nobody like my desi girl.
Ah... [grunts]
- It literally sounds like me trying to speak Hindi.
That is literally what I sound like.
You are incredible, PC.
Deedee, thank you so much
for taking the time to be on my show.
Everyone watching at home, make sure you grab your copy
of "Unfinished," Priyanka's new memoir.
You are my hero, truly. I know you're so busy.
Thank you. - Thank you, buddy.
I'm so happy for you.
- [speaking Hindi] We did the show.
