Mumbai: Bollywood's desi girl Priyanka Chopra has reached Hyderabad for the shooting of the Zanjeer remake and actor-filmmaker Farhan Akhtar has warned her against doing too many remakes and getting typecast.

In the remake, being directed by Apoorva Lakhia, southern star Ram Charan Teja and Priyanka are playing Vijay and Mala, respectively.
Farhan tweeted: "Priyanka Chopra, do you realise that this is the third official remake of Amitabh Bachchan you are in? Be careful you don't get typecast."
