Priyanka Chopra took a trip down memory lane by sharing a throwback photo from her beauty pageant days along with a recent mirror selfie.

The throwback picture dates back to her participation in the Femina Miss India pageant in 2000, where she is seen adorned in her sash and a white sari.

In contrast, the current mirror selfie depicts her sporting a grey jeans jacket with a white crop-top and matching pants, posing stylishly.

Taking to her Instagram the 'Barfi' actress shared the picture along with a long caption that read, "How it started.. how it's going. (hearts emojis) PS: those 2000s brows though (eyes emoji). My 17 year old self was just trying to pretend like I belonged. In that moment I was desperately trying to keep it together. With the weight of the heavy sari and the newly acquired crown flimsily pinned into my hair with 2 bobby pins, my confidence was slowly slipping as well. But I held it together, just like my sari, with a few safety pins. (smiling emoji)."
