1
So it was mostly a stereotypical...
2
Actor or a stereotypical character with an actor having to speak in the accent
3
or having to like do the work itself be a little bit more Indian.
4
What does that even mean?
5
Someone tell you that I was told in an audition.
6
I think we needed the character to be a little bit more Indian and And I just didn't even understand why.
7
There's so many versions of that.
8
Today we're learning English with a podcast interview with Priyanka Chopra Jonas on the Joe Rogan Experience. In it,
9
she shares how it was hard for her to be taken seriously as an Indian actress in the American
10
and British film industries.
11
And in today's lesson, you'll be learning tons of to,
12
break out of, and stand on someone's shoulders.
13
To remember these new expressions forever so that you can confidently speak them next time you get into a conversation, actually experience this lesson on the RealLife app.

15
I think there have been a few before me, you know, that have done work.
16
That's the first one I heard of.
17
So no one's made it to me yet.
18
Well, thank you.
19
Yes, I think that it's been few and far in between.
20
I think America is a really hard country to break into, to be relevant in.
21
And also, I think Hollywood controls a large part of the global entertainment business.
22
So as an actor from anywhere in the world, if you want to break into the English language,
23
global entertainment, Hollywood system, it's not easy to do that.
24
you know, culturally it's different, language is different, jokes are different.
25
So, That's a tough transition.
26
So right off the bat, Joe makes an interesting observation.
27
He tells Priyanka: "How many people have come from India, like you, and become stars in Western movies?" I think there have been a few before me, you know, that have done work.
28
The first one I heard of.
29
So no one's made it to me yet.
30
So what Joe means here is that aside from Priyanka, no other Indian actors have become known or relevant to him.
31
We may also say that you don't have anyone on your radar.
32
Check out these examples: Ben, Priyanka responds with this: means.
33
There aren't many of them.
34
Very common and easy to find.
35
Hidden in different places.
36
Exactly!
37
When something is few and far between, it means there are very few examples of it.
38
They're rare, hard to find.
39
Priyanka is saying that Indian actors in Western movies are not common at all.
40
You'd use this expression anytime you want to say that something doesn't happen often.
41
For example: "I love rainy days here in California, but they're few and far between." Here's another example.
42
- The compliments from you are few and far between, and I appreciate them.
43
- Moving on, Priyanka gives us a really honest take on Hollywood.
44
"I think America is a really hard country to break into,
45
to be relevant in." To break into somewhere means to successfully enter a world or industry that doesn't just let anyone in.
46
It's about overcoming barriers.
47
When Spotify launched in the US in 2011, it had to fight hard to break into a market already dominated by iTunes.
48
Check out this example.
49
"If you were selling menswear when you first got to Hollywood, how did you break into films?" And Priyanka continues to say that what she accomplished is tough.
50
"It's a tough and also like I think Hollywood controls a large part of the global entertainment business.
51
So as an actor from anywhere in the world, if you want to break into the English language,
52
global entertainment, Hollywood system, it's not easy to do that.
53
This just means that something is difficult.
54
Native speakers use it constantly.
55
That was a tough call.
56
She's been going through a tough time.
57
It's a tough market.
58
Yeah, we had some tough years.
59
I lost my job.
60
Boys?
61
Boys?
62
It's a tough decision.
63
And I know from my own experience learning six languages, it's really tough.

73
Alright, let's listen to Priyanka continue to explain about the difficulties of breaking into Hollywood.
74
Yes, I was in high school in the States and I, you know, so it wasn't like alien to me.
75
It's not like I was in India and I was like, I want to go to America and start working there.
76
I really wanted to see what it would be like if I came down here.
77
Would there be an opportunity for someone like me to, you know, be able to create an impact?
78
many years later I feel like you know I'm on my way there.
79
But there have been so many actors whose shoulders I've stood on.
80
like Indian casting in English language entertainment, whether it was Hollywood or, you know, British entertainment, wherever, was usually...
81
by us seen as a diversity check.
82
So it was mostly a stereotypical actor, or a stereotypical character with an actor having to speak in the accent or having to do the-- - Work at 7 -11.
83
- Be a little bit more Indian, what does that even mean?
84
- Did someone tell you that?
85
- I was told in an audition, I think we needed the character to be a little bit more Indian.
86
And I just didn't even understand why.
87
There's so many versions of that, but I think what this person meant was have a little bit more of the accent.
88
Yeah, be the caricature.
89
Yeah, be the caricature, which was really tough to break out of.
90
So despite Priyanka having the advantage of spending time in the USA as a teenager, things were still tough.
91
Yes, I was in high school in the States and I, you know, so it wasn't like alien to me.
92
It's not like I was in India and I was like, I want to go to America and start working there.
93
What does alien mean in this context?
94
relating to outer space or extraterrestrials, strange, unfamiliar, or completely foreign, illegal or unauthorized.
95
Bye.
96
Exactly right.
97
When something feels alien to you, it feels completely foreign or strange, like it belongs to a different world.
98
Using an iPhone is natural for you.
99
But for your grandmother, it might still feel alien.
100
Next, Priyanka says...
101
I really wanted to see what it would be like if I came down here.
102
This is a really useful grammar structure.
103
What it would be like is used to imagine or explore a possible experience.
104
You're picturing a scenario that hasn't happened yet.
105
Compare these two: What is it like to be famous?
106
You're asking someone who is famous right now.
107
I wonder what it would be like to be famous.
108
You're describing an imagined scenario, something you were picturing before it happened.
109
So whenever you're imagining a future or hypothetical experience, use what it would be like.
110
You could say: Before I moved abroad, I kept thinking about what it would be like to live in another country.
111
And the same line has another expression worth catching:
112
I really wanted to see what it would be like if I came down here.
113
To come down to a place simply means to travel to a specific location, usually one that's considered a destination or a lower geographic point.
114
In American English, it often means moving or visiting from somewhere further north or less central, like come down to Los Angeles.
115
It's casual and very common in conversation.
116
Continuing on, Brianka talks about her motivation for making the move.
117
Um, I really wanted to see what it would be like if I came down here, would there be an opportunity for someone like me to,
118
you know, be able to create an impact?
119
To create an impact, or make an impact, means to make a meaningful difference.
120
Like the impact we want to make here at RealLife English is to help global citizens to not just learn English, but to live it.
121
Which is exactly why we created the RealLife app to guide you in doing this.
122
Here's another example: "Anyway, we try to make an impact in children's lives with worthwhile programs." Then Priyanka adds something humble
123
and beautiful: "Many years later I feel like, you know, I'm on my way there.
124
But there have been so many actors whose shoulders I've stood on.
125
When you say you're on your way to something, it's an optimistic expression, meaning that you're making your way towards a goal.
126
You're not there yet, but you're moving in the right direction.
127
You might say, "I haven't mastered English yet, but I'm on my way." Surprising to hear this from Priyanka, who's already a global superstar.
128
And continuing with her humility, she says: But there have been so many actors whose shoulders I've stood on.
129
To stand on someone's shoulders means to benefit from the work, sacrifices, or achievements of people who came before you.
130
It's a way of recognizing that your success wasn't built in isolation.
131
Others made it possible.
132
This expression actually comes from a famous quote by Isaac Newton, who said he could see further because he was standing on the shoulders of giants.
133
Meaning he built his scientific discoveries on the work of the great thinkers who came before him.
134
Priyanka is saying the same thing.
135
The Indian actors who came to Hollywood before her, even if they didn't fully break through, made it a little easier for her to walk through the door.
136
And by the way, can I ask you a favor?
137
We depend on your feedback to continue making English lessons that you'll enjoy learning with.
138
So, please take just a moment to pause and comment one movie, series, or celebrity that you would love a lesson with.
139
The RealLife team and I read every one.
140
Thanks so much.
141
Moving on, Priyanka shares a pretty shocking and sad reality about the film industry.
142
like Indian casting in English language entertainment, whether it was Hollywood or, you know, British entertainment, wherever,
143
was usually by us seen as, you know, a diversity check.
144
Let's unpack both expressions here.
145
First, casting refers to the process of selecting actors for roles in a film or TV show.
146
When a director is deciding who will play each character, that's casting.
147
And the person who does this professionally is called the casting director.
148
Now, a diversity check is a term used critically, often sarcastically, to describe when a film or TV show includes a person from a minority group,
149
not because the story requires it, but simply to appear inclusive.
150
It's a superficial gesture, a box that gets checked on a list.
151
Priyanka is saying that for a long time, Indian actors were cast in Hollywood mainly as a way for productions to say,
152
"Look, we included someone who isn't white," complex roles.
153
And that leads directly into the next expression.
154
So it was mostly a stereotypical
155
actor or a stereotypical character with an actor having to speak in the accent
156
or having to like do the - Work at 7 -11.
157
Be a little bit more Indian.
158
What does that even mean?
159
Something stereotypical follows an oversimplified fixed idea of what a type of person is like,
160
usually based on their nationality, ethnicity, gender, or background.
161
A stereotypical portrayal flattens real complex human beings into a cliche.
162
Think of how early Hollywood movies portrayed pretty much every nationality in a stereotypical way the wise old Asian man,
163
the passionate Latin lover, The bumbling British villain.
164
Priyanka is describing exactly that kind of limited, reductive representation.
165
And finally: "I was told in an audition, I think we needed the character to be a little bit more Indian.
166
But I think what the, like, this person meant was have a little bit more of the accent and speak a little bit…" Yeah, be the caricature.
167
Yeah, be the caricature.
168
Which was really tough to break out of, so… So earlier we heard "break into" and now "break out of." It means to escape a pattern,
169
a label, or a situation that's been limiting you.
170
It's about freeing yourself from whatever box you've been put in.
171
Quantico.
172
She didn't play a stereotypical Indian character.
173
She played a typical American.
174
That's no small thing.
175
All right.
176
I hope that this lesson with Priyanka has given you some food for thought.
177
That means things to reflect on.
178
But you're not done yet.
179
In fact, now comes the most important part of the lesson.
180
You will test everything that you learned today by watching all those clips again without subtitles
181
and I'll make it a little bit more challenging by also asking you some quiz questions.
182
You've got this!
183
How many people have come from India, like you, and become stars in Western movies?
184
I think there have been a few before me, you know, that have done work.
185
That first one I heard of.
186
So no one's made it to me yet.
187
Well, thank you.
188
Good coffee shops in my small town are.
189
There's really only one decent place and it's always packed.
190
Thank you.
191
you you Good coffee shops in my small town are few and far between.
192
There's really only one decent place and it's always packed.
193
Yes, I think that it's been few and far in between.
194
I think America is a really hard country to break into, to be relevant in.
195
It's a...
196
And also, I think Hollywood controls a large part of the global entertainment business.
197
So as an actor from anywhere in the world, if you want to break into the English language,
198
global entertainment, Hollywood system, it's not easy to do that.
199
you know, culturally it's different, language is different, jokes are different.
200
So, That's a tough transition.
201
Yes, I was in I was in high school in the States and I, you know, so it wasn't like alien to me.
202
If something feels alien to you, it means you find it completely natural and comfortable.
203
You know, so it wasn't like alien to me, it's not like I was in India and I was like, "I want to go to America and start working there."
204
I really wanted to see what it would be like if I came down here.
205
Would there be an opportunity for someone like me to, you know, be able to create an impact?
206
Many years later I feel like, you know, I'm on my way there.
207
But there have been so many actors whose shoulders I've stood on.
208
Which of these situations is a good example of someone standing on the shoulders of those who came before them?
209
a musician who taught themselves guitar from scratch with no help, an athlete who wins a competition for the very first time,
210
a scientist who builds on previous research to make a new discovery, Bye.
211
So Indian like Indian casting...
212
in English language entertainment, whether it was Hollywood or, you know, British entertainment, wherever, was usually...
213
by us seen as a diversity check.
214
So it was mostly a stereotypical actor
215
or a stereotypical character with an actor having to speak in the accent or having to like do the, be a little bit more Indian.
216
What does that even mean?
217
Did someone tell you that?
218
I was told in an audition, I think we needed the character to be a little bit more Indian.
219
And I just didn't even understand why.
220
There's so many versions of that, but I think what the Like this person meant was have a little bit more of the accent.
221
Yeah, be the character.
222
Yeah, be the character, which was really tough to break out of.
223
So match the expression to its meaning.
224
you you you you Bye you
225
Oh yeah!
226
So I hope you had a lot of fun learning English with Priyanka Chopra Jonas.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
