Parineeti Chopra eyes IIFA awards

The 13th International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) awards celebration has started with the film fraternity voting for the winners.

"Like you all know, this is my first IIFA. Till now every year I used to hear my sister [Priyanka Chopra] saying that I am going here and I am going there. This year I am getting a chance to go somewhere, I am very, very excited," the 23-year-old said.

"No one is telling me where are we going, but I know I am going somewhere. Till now I have got all the awards and I am now waiting for IIFA. I hope I get that as well and then I'll throw a huge party," she added.

The actress is so happy to have won so many awards that she counts them everyday. "Daily I count all of them to ensure that they are still there. Till now I have 10 and I am hoping that I also get IIFA," said Chopra

Chopra, who played Dimple in Ladies vs Ricky Bahl, feels happy when people identify her by her character name. "Today less people know me as Parineeti and more call me Dimple, which I think is a good thing. When you remember the name of the character and don't remember the real name of the actor, it is a good thing. You don't say Shah Rukh - Kajol, you say Raj-Simran. So I am very happy," she said.
