It's going to be a rocking goodbye to 2006 and an even more rocking welcome to 2007, when actor Priyanka Chopra shares the stage with Canadian singer-instrumentalist Nelly Furtado at Andheri sports complex on December 31. Priyanka says, "I've never worked on New Year's Eve. The fact that I'll be getting the party started and interacting with a huge crowd got me excited. I've also been a Nelly Furtado fan. Sharing the stage with her would be fun!" She continues, "We'll be getting in a Bollywood feel with popular numbers from films like `Bluffmaster' and `Mujhse Shaadi Karoge'. It will be a two-piece act." While Priyanka's wardrobe will be designed by Shane and Falguni Peacock, Terrence Lewis will be doing the choreography. Incidentally, maestro A R Rahman will perform a 30-minute act. On her whopping success Priyanka says, "I owe it to destiny. Work is worship for me." She adds, "Every day is a new lesson. But I listen to my instincts. I'm not swayed by others although I do take their opinions." Priyanka cherishes a compliment paid to her by a six-year-old girl abroad who told her, "Aunty, I performed your number `Lal dupatta' (`Mujhse Shaadi ') at school and won a prize. Now I'll be performing `Aaj ki raat' (`Don'). How can I grow up to be like you?" Someone who underlines that her sex appeal lies in her voice defines love as `the noblest form of insanity'. About her dream mate Priyanka elucidates, "Someone tall, with a great smile, who accepts me the way I am." http://www.dnaindia.com/report.asp?NewsID=1068894
