Bollywood beauty hits the Big Apple: Priyanka Chopra stops traffic as she shoots commercial on New York's streets

She’s a Bollywood super star but on Wednesday Priyanka Chopra proved she can also stop traffic on the other side of the world.

The former Miss World was spotted shooting a commercial on the streets of Manhattan.

The stunning 30-year-old soon drew a huge crowd with her on camera antics, as locals stopped to snap pictures of the beauty queen.

A crowd of onlookers was spotted taking in the action as the cameras rolled, with many fans stopping to take photos of the Indian beauty.

At one point it seemed Priyanka had even attracted the attentions of one of New York’s finest, as a policeman stopped for a chat.

Priyanka is working hard on her worldwide career, with the star releasing her second single Exotic, featuring Pitbull, last month.

While she is not well known in America, Chopra is one of Bollywood's biggest stars and has carved a reputation for playing diverse and unconventional roles.

Much like Kim Kardashian, she was declared queen of brand endorsements in India, representing Pepsi, Nokia, Garnier and Nestlé.
