Global icon Priyanka Chopra has made a triumphant return to music after a significant break, lending her vocal talents to a special desi version of the classic holiday song 'Last Christmas'. The track arrives just in time for the festive season and will feature prominently in the upcoming family musical film 'Christmas Karma', directed by acclaimed filmmaker Gurinder Chadha.
A Musical Comeback and Heartfelt Collaboration
Expressing her enthusiasm about the project, Priyanka Chopra revealed her personal connection to both the song and the director. "Gurinder Chadha is a dear friend, and I am so happy to support her in my little way in Christmas Karma," the actress-singer shared. She added her hopes that "this desi twist to a song that has long been the soundtrack of Christmas for so many of us resonates with audiences."
The collaboration proved to be remarkably smooth, with director Gurinder Chadha praising Priyanka's immediate support. Taking to social media, Chadha wrote: "This is @priyankachopra for you. One call to support the movie and she was in. Always ready to support filmmakers from our community." She particularly noted how Priyanka used both her platform and her singing voice to support the director's creative vision.
Social Media Messages of Strength and Resilience
Following the song's release, Priyanka Chopra took to her social media accounts with several stories that conveyed messages of inner strength and personal resilience. In one post that carried a hint of sarcasm, she stated: "So many people have inspired me to be nothing like them."
Another story featured a video of a young girl delivering an inspiring message: "Be like a pineapple, stand tall, wear a crown, and always, I mean always be sweet on the inside." This was followed by a post detailing characteristics of July-born individuals, noting that Priyanka herself was born on July 18. The description highlighted traits including intense emotional depth, making efforts appear effortless, investigative tendencies, fear of one-sided love, zero tolerance for cheating, and finding deep meaning in lyrics and poetry.
These reflective posts appeared as online reactions to Priyanka's new musical offering showed divided opinions among listeners.

She is set to appear in SS Rajamouli's highly anticipated global venture, where she will share screen space with South Indian superstar Mahesh Babu and acclaimed actor Prithviraj Sukumaran.
This musical return marks another dimension of Priyanka's evolving career, demonstrating her continued commitment to supporting creative projects from the Indian film community while maintaining her status as a global entertainment powerhouse.
