History
<templatestyles src="Template:Quote_box/styles.css" />
"I want to work with new talent. I want to do small films with new directors, new writers and new actors. I know that getting a foothold in the industry is tough and what a struggle it is. I will produce all kinds of regional cinema as well. I have always maintained that promoting regional cinema is important."
—Chopra on her plans for the company[1]
Purple Pebble Pictures was founded by Priyanka Chopra. The company ventured into films, television, and AD films.[2] Chopra had always wanted to produce films but had been waiting for right time due to her immensely busy schedule. In May 2014, it was reported that she would be co-producing Madhur Bhandarkar's political drama Madamji, a film she had signed earlier that year to star in.[3] It was confirmed in August 2014 that Chopra indeed will be producing the film.[4] However, the film was postponed to an unknown date due to full season extension of Chopra's American television series Quantico. She said "Madamji is on hold and this film is very close to my heart. For this film, I have to give 70 days for shoot but since my show got extended, I couldn’t do it. Hopefully, someday I will make it. But right now I am not doing it."[5]
Debut and upcoming projects
The company released its first project in 2016, the mobile series It's My City, a sitcom about four girls living in an apartment owned by Priyanka Chopra. Co-produced with Endemol Shine India, it guest stars Chopra as herself (an official landlady, unofficial guardian and protective friend to the girls).[6]
Purple Pebble Pictures has several projects at the various stages of production. Three regional language films are under production — the Marathi film Ventilator, the Punjabi film Ek Onkar, and the Bhojpuri film Bam Bam Bol Raha Hai Kashi, all of which are scheduled to release in 2016.[7] Additionally, the company is also working on two Hindi films.[1]
