Former Miss World and Bollywood diva Priyanka Chopra released her long awaited debut music video for her single “In My City” featuring will.i.am. The song was used as the theme song for Thursday Night Kickoff during the 2012 NFL season on the NFL Network. Director Joseph Kahn helmed the music video for “In My City” by capturing the essence of the song with how technology has made the world a smaller place, while giving you a taste of India along the way. The big production balances American dance music with Indian elements with multiple colorful outfit changes along with a young and vibrant style. Speaking at the world premiere of her music video, Priyanka Chopra said, “I’m nervous and I’m excited… this is another first for me… my first ever music video. We’ve tried to capture the essence of the song… which essentially is welcoming people into each others world. I was very keen to add some Indian elements into the video… from the styling right down to the ‘thumkas’. I had a great team involved in creating this video and I’m very excited to share it with the world!” You can get the track on or amazon.

Lyrics to In My City by Priyanka Chopra x Will.i.am
I know you got your own town
I know you got your own ways
I know you got your own life
I’m just sayin’ come on down to my place
Come on make some new friends
And tell me what you drinkin’
I know there’s no place like home
But I know you gonna like it in my city
Chorus:
Everybody’s welcome here
Everybody welcome to my city
We ain’t got no worries here
I know you’re gonna like it in my city
You know you got a friend in me
You ain’t gonna wanna leave
co-co-co-co-come on, co-co-co-come on
You ain’t never had a party
Till you come to party in my city

Coming out inside my car
No sitin in my backyard
Let’s go for a ride
Come on and ride with me

Everybody welcome to my city
We ain’t got no worries here

You know you got a friend in me
