Priyanka Chopra not only turned mentor to the contestants on Cine Stars Ki Khoj that airs tonight, but also directed the youngsters.

The actress, who was on the show to promote her upcoming movie Mary Kom, asked the judges to nominate a contestant each, who would enact a sequence that would be directed by her. While Victor picked Syed Mamoon, Sonali Bendre and Anurag Basu chose Meenu Panchal and Oksana respectively. The situation given to them was Mary Kom being denied a prize because she is a North-Eastern girl. The three gave their best and chose to depict anger in their own styles. Priyanka loved the way Oksana, who is from Azerbaijan, did her entire act in Hindi even though she was given the choice of doing it in English. Giving them tips, the actress narrated an incident from her Barfi days and said, “It is important for actors to not have any preconceived notions about the act or the situation, but to just let themselves go during their performance. During our Barfi shoot, all of us would be playing cricket before giving our shots and would be free-willed. As an actor, you should have faith in yourself and go with the flow.“ Priyanka's camaraderie with Anurag and the hilarious potshots they took at each other and her dance with Sonali on the number Humma Humma only added to all the fun.

Cera India's Best Cine Stars Ki Khoj powered by Glam Up airs every Saturday and Sunday at 9 pm on Zee TV.
