Speaking to Dax Shepherd on his podcast Armchair Expert, Priyanka said she was going to discuss the real reason she began looking for a job in the US.

When she was filming for 'Saat Khoon Maaf', she claimed that Anjula Acharia of Desi Hits noticed her in a music video and called her. She asked if the actress would be interested in a music career in US.

Priyanka, at the time, was also looking for a way out of Bollywood. "I was being pushed into a corner in the industry (Bollywood). I had people not casting me, I had beef with people, I am not good at playing that game so I kind of was tired of the politics and I said I needed a break,” she said. “This music thing gave me an opportunity to go into another part of the world, not crave for the movies I didn't want to get but I would require to schmooze certain clubs and cliques of people. It would require grovelling and I had worked a long time by then that I didn't feel like I wanted to do it,” she added.
