Mumbai: Actor Priyanka Chopra shared a throwback photo of herself as a nine-year-old girl recently on social media. The actor discussed her evolution and journey into a woman over the years. The 'Aitraaz' fame actor penned a long caption in which she mentioned her childhood and about her younger self.
She wrote, "Warning: Don't troll my 9-year-old self. So wild to think about what puberty and grooming can do to a girl. On the left is me at my awkward pre-teen era with a "Boy cut" hairstyle so it wouldn't be cumbersome at school. (Thanks ma @drmadhuakhourichopra ) I went from a "katori cut" to this. so it was a win (with a laughing emoji) and on the right is me at 17, having just won Miss India in the year 2000 and basking in the glory of hair, makeup up and wardrobe.. Both pictures were taken less than a decade apart."
She continued, "As Britney Spears very articulately put it... I'm not a girl, not yet a woman. That was exactly how i felt then, entering the big world of entertainment. Almost 25 years later... still figuring it out. Though, aren't we all? Looking back at my younger self often makes me kinder to myself today."

"Think about your younger self and how much she has done for you. Love yourself, you've gone through a lot to be where you are today (with a heart on face emoji) What did your younger self do for you? #mondaymusings. Thank you to who made this side-by-side picture and sent me," Priyanka concluded. Soon after the 'Dil Dhadakne Do' fame actress' post surfaced online, fans and celebrities took to her comments section and showered immense love for her bravery.
Actor-comedian Sunil Grover wrote, "This is the best post. Love it. As you asked, my younger self gives me lots of innocence. And I want to tell that you are doing great my younger self. Keep dreaming. Big and bigger."
