“Your Victory Feels Personal” – R Madhavan on Priyanka Chopra Jonas’ Heads of State Success

R. Madhavan has showered praise on Priyanka Chopra Jonas for her standout performance in the action-comedy Heads of State, calling her achievement a personal victory. His heartfelt message, which she cheerfully republished, reflects the growing admiration in Bollywood and beyond for Priyanka’s Hollywood breakthrough.

In a glowing post, Madhavan wrote, “So proud of you for breaking new grounds and doing all that we dream of. What a wonderful job in the film, and you held your own so well. Your victory feels personal, Priyanka Chopra.”

This exchange arrives on the heels of Heads of State becoming number 1 worldwide on Prime Video, signalling Priyanka’s rising impact on global audiences.

Directed by Ilya Naishuller and co-starring John Cena and Idris Elba, the high-octane action-comedy follows US President Will Derringer (Cena) and UK PM Sam Clarke (Elba), who are targeted mid-flight on Air Force One. Priyanka plays MI6 operative Noel Bisset, a no-nonsense agent who rescues the world leaders during the crisis. Critics have praised her fierce screen presence, noting she “saves the world- and the film” with her intense action sequences.

Reflecting on her experience sharing the screen with two Hollywood heavyweights, Priyanka said, “I’m just really happy to be on the ride with them and be the only girl in this, like, really masculine energy. I had a great time.”

The film’s global appeal also prompted crossover reactions: even John Cena publicly expressed gratitude to Indian fans for their enthusiasm- “WWE’s fanbase in India is absolutely passionate and incredibly fast-growing… I owe them a truly heartfelt thank you”- which underscores how Priyanka continues to bridge Indian and international cinema.

For Madhavan, this moment is more than professional admiration- it’s a celebration of a shared dream. Priyanka followed up his post with a gracious repost, writing: “Thank you, my friend. Really appreciate your words of encouragement.”

As Madhavan readies himself for his next Netflix release Aap Jaisa Koi, and Priyanka rides the wave of Heads of State success, streaming now on Prime Video- this camaraderie is a reminder of the deep bonds between Indian stars, transcending borders and platforms.
