She said actors are given too much credit and their job is to add life to a script.

In an interview with Janice Sequeira, Priyanka Chopra said working with big names lets you take risks. “This doesn’t have to do with just working with the best in the business in the States. Even when I was working in Bollywood, working with the best filmmakers taught me how to be the best actor. We give too much credit to actors; actors do nothing by the way. We really don’t. I’ve always said this. Actors do nothing,” Priyanka said. She said actors work on scripts written by others and dance to choreography by others.

“We say out somebody else’s words, we are working on a script that is written by someone else, we are lip-syncing and singing songs that are in someone else’s voice. We’re dancing steps that are choreographed by somebody else. We are doing marketing, where questions are asked by somebody else. We are dressed by somebody, hair and makeup are done by somebody. So what am I doing?”  said Priyanka.
