Redditors attack Priyanka Chopra harshly after she admitted she hasn’t seen RRR despite holding a special screening.
After winning the Miss World crown in 2000, Priyanka Chopra Jonas may have started her career in Bollywood, but these days she is a world figure recognised for her contributions to Hollywood, fashion, and other fields. While taking a lie detector test for a recent overseas interview, the actress was questioned if she had seen Ram Charan and Jr. NTR’s film RRR, directed by SS Rajamouli.
For those who don’t know, the Telugu movie swept the globe and won numerous awards, including the Critics’ Choice Award, the Golden Globe, and the Academy Award. The movie was shown in a number of venues and film festivals, and Mrs. Chopra Jonas even held a private viewing. But she hasn’t yet seen it!
In a recent lie detector test conducted by Vanity Fair, Priyanka was questioned regarding SS Rajamouli’s RRR. The interviewer is seen asking the “Citadel” actress while displaying a picture of Ram Charan, “starred opposite this man in his Hindi film debut Zanjeer have you seen RRR?” Quickly answering, the desi girl replied, “No.”
On being questioned why,
“I just didn’t get time. I don’t watch a lot of movies, but I watch a lot of TV shows. I watch Dubai Bling, but I won’t end up watching Tar.”As PeeCee hosted a viewing party for the SS Rajamouli movie in the US, this statement irked her followers who also adored RRR.
People commented, Commenting on the Reddit thread, one wrote, “How do you host a screening party and not watch the movie?” Another added, “Wait but didn’t she hold a screening? How is this physically possible” A third noted, “She didn’t see it at her own screening xD”
“She was not interested just did it for clout” Another slamming Priyanka Chopra Jonas added, “Just saw an interview of hers and Sam Heughan, where she literally says she watches movies every single night… I’m gonna try and find that link and add to this comment…”
Another added, “It’s ironic that she gained publicity from hosting but did not watch RRR and could not even correctly recall the language of the film. Admitting to not watching the film is not a cute, funny, or relatable moment. It reads like she used the RRR success for clout without ever caring for the actual film. It reads as disingenuous.”
One shared a lengthy remark calling her out, reading, “She’s a social climber. She knows SSR is the next big thing post RRR popularity so she’s sucking upto him to land a role in his next. She isn’t going to be authentic or let her work speak cause that gets you nowhere. She just cares about her career not about girl bossin or being liked which ends up backfiring cause I don’t think SSR is gonna consider her after those mishaps. Atleast Alia played her cards right with KJo Mama and sucked upto SSR and landed a role in RRR. It’s all an elaborate game of who’s on whose good side, some do it better than others.”
