What if we told you that The Matrix Resurrections features not one, but two Bollywood stars? It’s not a malfunction in the Matrix, no. While Priyanka Chopra has been aggressively marketing the film, Purab Kohli is another desi tie to the renowned series, and dairy manufacturer Amul opted to honor both Bollywood stars in one of the year’s biggest blockbusters. They presented a cartoon rendition of Priyanka Chopra’s and Purab Kohli’s film roles. The slogan stated, “Popular in Purab and Pashchim.” “Bollywood actors in upcoming Hollywood blockbuster, Matrix Resurrections,” Amul captioned the photo when she shared it. Priyanka Chopra portrays Sati in the film, while Purab Kohli plays a game developer.
