As city- and statewide lockdowns spread last spring following the trajectory of the COVID-19 outbreak, many of us vowed to become our best pandemic selves. Some panic-bought Pelotons to keep up precoronavirus fitness regimens; others were kneading, proofing, and baking bread ad infinitum. Priyanka Chopra Jonas had similar sanguine expectations for herself. But unlike many of us, she succeeded.
It was during quarantine that the Bollywood star turned Hollywood A-lister wrote her memoir,
Unfinished (February 9, Ballantine Books), becoming a first-time author. "Casual," she says, laughing.
Chopra Jonas is talking to me on Zoom from the London home she's been renting since November. She's sporting an oversize black sweatshirt and matching sweatpants and is tucked into an uncomfortable-looking chair located in what has seemingly been designated the "office area." The actress is sequestered in London for nearly all of 2021, filming two projects: the spy series
Citadel, from the directors of
Avengers: Endgame, for Amazon Studios and the romantic drama
Text for You, costarring Celine Dion.

Unfinished, she's starring in
The White Tiger, out in January on Netflix, which she also produced, and is debuting her own hair-care brand, Anomaly, in Target in February. Chopra Jonas will close the year with the next installment of
