In Barfi! Priyanka Chopra enthralled one and all with her performance in a role of girl with autism.

The actress is nervous when it comes to her International Music Debut first single ' In My City', but is cherishing the compliments bestowed by the industry. According to a report in Times of India.

"People from the industry called Priyanka and have appreciated her performance. In fact, many celebs told her that she was so natural in her autism role," informed a source.

"Priyanka was also told that she has made a bench mark for her contemporaries. Interestingly, her colleagues told her that she deserves a national award and Piggy Chops is overwhelmed with all the appreciations," added the source.

After Agneepath, Barfi! is Priyanka's 2nd biggest opening in 2012. It seems that the actress is all set to create a special mark in Bollywood with her not regular run-of-the-mill characters.
