New Delhi: We last saw her fighting the bad guy in Don. Looks like the action bug has bitten the gorgeous actress Priyanka Chopra yet again who's now playing a bodyguard in her upcoming movie Drona. CNN-IBN caught up with the lady in the capital to find out more about her superwoman image.

CNN-IBN: I’ve got with me somebody I would call the powerpuff girl of Bollywood, Priyanka Chopra. Are you happy with the title, Priyanka?

Priyanka Chopra: Yeah I love The Powerpuff Girls. I am very fond of them actually. Blossom is my favourite. How did you know that?

CNN-IBN: See, that’s telepathy. Now when you talk about Bollywood you seem like somebody who’s kind of loved the superwoman image in reel. Are you like that in the real life as well?

Priyanka Chopra: Not at all. I am so glad that I am a good enough actor to pull off that image. I mean I am tough. No one should mess with me but I am very girly like that.

CNN-IBN: You’re playing a bodyguard in Drona. That’s the first of its kind in Bollywood, a woman going out to play bodyguard, right?

Priyanka Chopra: It is true that I am playing a bodyguard but we have had a lot of women in Bollywood doing action before like Rekha ji used to do it a lot and Hema Malina has done it and I am glad that the trend’s coming back and it’s great.
