Mumbai, Nov 24 (NationPress) International sensation Priyanka Chopra believes that narratives like “Born Hungry” remind us that ambition and compassion can coexist, even in a society fixated on rapid success.

When asked if tales such as “Born Hungry” evoke thoughts about the human aspect behind ambition and success, Priyanka responded to IANS: “I don't believe they are mutually exclusive. One can achieve ambition and success while maintaining a well-rounded life without any human cost. It's essential to find that balance, which we should all aim for.”

Further elaborating, Priyanka emphasized the significance of purpose, but not at the expense of individual well-being. “It's crucial for every individual to possess ambition, achievement, and purpose in life — however they define it. But this should never come at the expense of others, your own health, or mental wellness.”

For her, the film Born Hungry, available for streaming on JioHotstar, highlights the resilience within individuals while also recognizing the influence of fate. “A film like Born Hungry showcases that every person has the strength to persevere, and we can achieve our goals — but we must acknowledge that a touch of divinity is involved, just as it was in Sash's life,” said the actress, who is also the producer of “Born Hungry”.

Priyanka reflected on the profound emotional journey of Sash Simpson, who went from abandonment to triumph. “His life transformed, whereas many children’s lives do not. His narrative deserves to be shared because of what he achieved and how he overcame his challenges, including possible abandonment issues and fears he may have faced. As a mother of a young child, I can't fathom the kind of fear she would endure if left alone in the world.”

She often ponders Sash's formative years, adding: “I frequently think about the darker days of Sash's youth and how bleak that period must have been, and how he managed to rise above it and become the remarkable success he is today.”
