Following the release of Priyanka Chopra's latest action-comedy film, "Heads of State," Neha Dhupia has lauded the actress, calling her "a force to reckon with". The movie, directed by Ilya Naishuller, features Chopra alongside John Cena and Idris Elba, and has been generating buzz for its action sequences and comedic elements.

"Heads of State" is an action-comedy film now streaming on Amazon Prime Video. The plot revolves around the US President, Will Derringer (John Cena), and the UK Prime Minister, Sam Clarke (Idris Elba), who find themselves in a dangerous situation and must rely on each other to thwart a global conspiracy. Priyanka Chopra Jonas plays Noel Bisset, an MI6 agent who joins forces with the two leaders. The film involves the heads of state becoming targets of a foreign adversary, forcing them to depend on one another to prevent a global crisis.

Neha Dhupia's praise comes amidst mixed reviews for "Heads of State." Some critics have lauded Chopra's performance, noting that she "makes you proud" and that the film is one of her best Hollywood outings to date, even surpassing her performance in "Quantico". She plays a major role in the movie, adding to the chemistry between Cena and Elba. Other reviews have been less enthusiastic, with some describing the film as an average action-comedy with a predictable plot. Some critics felt that Chopra's character was similar to her previous roles in "Quantico" and "Citadel". Despite mixed reviews, many highlight the chemistry between Cena and Elba as a major draw. Their dynamic is described as reminiscent of the "Grumpy Old Men" series, with slapstick comedy and character moments.

Priyanka Chopra's role in "Heads of State" has been described as an intelligence operative who becomes entangled with the two world leaders. While some find her character engaging, others feel it is a rehash of previous roles, leading to criticism of Hollywood typecasting her. Despite this, her action sequences and on-screen presence have generally been well-received. In a recent interview, Chopra discussed the physicality of her role and the importance of working with a trusted stunt team, particularly praising her stunt double, Anisha Gibbs, who worked with her on both "Heads of State" and "Citadel".

"Heads of State" has been described as "Air Force One meets Midnight Run". The film incorporates political satire and action, though some critics find the political commentary uncomfortable, suggesting it sometimes feels like Western propaganda. The movie was directed by Ilya Naishuller, known for his previous action films "Hardcore Henry" and "Nobody".

While "Heads of State" may not be a groundbreaking cinematic achievement, it appears to be a fun, action-packed film with notable performances from its leads, particularly John Cena and Idris Elba. Neha Dhupia's commendation of Priyanka Chopra as "a force to reckon with" underscores the actress's continued impact on the industry, even amidst varying critical opinions.
