PriyankaSuccess makes everybody happy and Priyanka Chopra is no exception. She is happy with the back-to-back success of Fashion, Dostana and the recently released Kaminey. Compliments are pouring in from all quarters for her performance in these films. In the meantime, her health is also deteriorating.

The problem with Priyanka is that she doesn’t know how to stop once she starts working. She is a complete workaholic. She admitted that hard word paid great dividend but it took a lot of blood, sweat, tears and more from her.

What makes her more popular is her diverse roles in each of her films. If Fashion was a woman-centric film, Dostana dealt with homosexuality and Kaminey is described by critics as ‘refreshingly different’. Now, all eyes are on her again with her donning 12 characters in her upcoming release What’s Your Raashee? She also has Pyaar Impossible in her kitty.

But the actress has finally realised that work is taking its toll on her health. She confessed that she has obsessive compulsive disorder at work. She added that she pushes herself to the point of no return and ends up hurting herself in the process. It maybe recalled that she had fainted a few times on the sets.
