When Priyanka Chopra gave hard-hitting reply to a person who said she can't be called Punjabi for THIS reason

As a dedicated follower and admirer of Priyanka Chopra, I have been inspired by her journey from Bareilly to Bollywood, and now to Hollywood. Her unwavering spirit and resilience are truly commendable. The incident where she asserted her Punjabi identity on Aap Ki Adalat was a testament to her confidence and the audacity to challenge narrow-mindedness.


Priyanka Chopra, who garners millions of fans around the globe, started her Bollywood journey with the 2003 film The Hero: Love Story of a Spy alongside Sunny Deol and Preity Zinta. PeeCee initially used to live in Bareilly, followed by Mumbai, before shifting to Los Angeles with her husband, American singer-songwriter Nick Jonas. Let’s take you back to the time when the actress gave a hard-hitting reply to a person who believed that she couldn’t be called Punjabi. 

During her discussion on Aap Ki Adalat, Priyanka Chopra (often referred to as PeeCee) left everyone astonished with her response when asked about her personal identity. In the interview, she described herself as Punjabi, but a member from the audience was reluctant to accept this, claiming that he thought the actress doesn’t reside in Punjab.

If a person’s name is Chopra and they live in Mumbai, they are often referred to as ‘Miss Mumbaikar’. Wondering if the same applies to her, Priyanka asked, “If my name is Chopra and I reside in Mumbai, then am I called Miss Mumbaikar?

As the man attempted to make his case, the Don actress countered by saying, “It seems there’s a problem in his life, as I perceive him to be quite closed-minded.

On September 9, 2024, Priyanka Chopra (also known as PeeCee) joined Jessica Chastain, Julianne Moore, and Naomi Watts at the Kering Foundation’s Women Empowerment dinner in New York City. In several photos by Getty Images, these notable women were seen together. For the occasion, Priyanka chose a stylish black jacket with intricate lace accents.

In August, the spotlight was on Priyanka Chopra as she briefly returned to India for her brother Siddharth Chopra’s wedding events. Siddharth and his fiancée, actress Neelam Upadhyaya, had a traditional Hindu ceremony called Hastakshar and an engagement in Mumbai. Additionally, the renowned figure took the opportunity to publicize her Marathi film project, Paani.

On the work front, Priyanka completed the shoot of her upcoming film, The Bluff in Australia.
