Actress Priyanka Chopra has shared that her memoir, Unfinished, has become the best-selling book on Amazon, within 12 hours of being available for pre-order. The unfinished one is expected to arrive in January.
“Thank you all for taking us to # 1 in the United States in less than 12 hours! I hope you all like the book, ”Priyanka wrote in a tweet on Saturday.
On Friday, the actor had taken to Instagram to share the cover of the book. In his caption, he wrote: “Ironically, I named these memoirs years before I started writing them. Having been a public person now for 20 years, with so much life to live and a long list of things to check off my personal and professional list, I am very #Unfinished. BUT the funny thing about writing a memoir is that it forces you to see things differently, reconciling so many things that you thought you had put to bed. As I did so, I realized that being ‘unfinished’ has a deeper meaning to me, and has in fact been one of the most common threads of my life. “
Priyanka, who has been in the US for most of 2020, recently took to social media to comment on the Hathras and Balrampur rape incidents. In a note shared on her Instagram stories, Priyanka wrote: “More horrible news from #Balrampur. Each violation is not just another number. There is a family behind her that has to live with horror forever. Each of us must live with these acts of brutality incessantly and hang our heads in shame that we have failed our women. Collectively “.

Earlier, expressing her anger at Hathras’ gang rape, Priyanka had written: “Disrespect and abuse, frustration and anger, sadness and helplessness, these emotions loop. Everything they scream is inhuman, barbarian. Why? Over and over and over again … Always the women Always the young Rape after rape after rape … We cry, cry and yet no one hears the screams. Why hate? Are parents raising children listening? Is the law screaming silent? How many more Nirbhayas? How many more years? #Hathras “.
The actor has several projects in the pipeline, including an Amazon series produced by Joe and Anthony Russo, The White Tiger and We Can Be Heroes from Netflix and The Matrix 4.
