Her next plan is to launch Bumble in India. Priyanka Chopra’s foray into Silicon Valley is somewhat reassuring, as she was introduced to tech investing in 2010 by her manager, Anjula Acharia, a savvy founder and investor, and a seasoned businesswoman. Acharia was the first investor in ClassPass, a fitness startup, and has since invested Bulletproof Coffee, Health-Ade Kombucha, and The Muse.

Chopra’s investments in Silicon Valley have generally been heavily skewed toward social impact companies and women-led businesses. She has a column in the Hindustan Times the “Priyanka Chopra Column,” and has written several controversial articles about and safety of Indian women. In addition, as a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador, Chopra has also worked to advocate for the rights and well-being of children, focusing primarily on developing countries.
After being the face of many brands, including Pepsi, Nokia, Garnier and Nestlé, and stepping from Bollywood to Silicon Valley, Chopra revealed that she received her greatest inspiration from actor Ashton Kutcher, who was Demi Moore’s young lover. Sticking to Kutcher’s motto: “If you want a job, you have to do it. It takes time and there is a lot of potential for mistakes,” Chopra has been open to listening, learning from him and fully committing to that adventure. It should be noted that Sound Ventures, the venture company started by Kutcher, is often cited by the business world as the most successful model of celebrity investment in technology startups. Kutcher’s investments have so far been in the hottest startups of the new technology wave.
