Ther in London, she took admission in a famous Institute of Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts. 

Photos made her get a chance in Bollywood

When Priya used to work in dramas or stage shows, one of the photographers clicked her photos. Luckily these photos were noticed by Chetan Anand at his friend’s place and signed Priya for his next film. Actually that time Chetan was searching for a new face for his film Haqeeqat (1964). 

Chetan was not happy with his married life

Chetan was not happy with his married life with wife Uma. In such situation, he came close to Priya during the shoot of the film. However, Chetan was 16 years older than Priya but even then they fell in love and Priya decided to move with Chetan. Chetan was so in love with Priya that he fought with his brothers, superstar Dev Anand and Vijay Anand to take her in a film. Priya used to live with Chetan but they were not married. Chetan made a new bungalow for Priya where they used to live together. However, the problem arose after Chetan’s sudden demise in 1997. The bungalow he built for Priya was supposed to be the main reason that took Priya’s life.
Its price was increasing day by day. Chetan’s sons Ketan Anand and Vivek Anand wanted to throw Priya out of this house but they failed to do so.
