SS Rajamouli’s magnum opus RRR gave recognition to Indian cinema and especially to Tollywood AKA Telugu language films on a global level after ‘Naatu Naatu’ won big at the Oscars 2023. As much joy it gave to the fans to see the film win this prestigious award, it annoyed them equally when RRR was mislabeled to be either a Bollywood film or a Tamil film. And this goof-up was also made by Priyanka Chopra when gave an interview with Dax Shepherd on his podcast show. She ended up saying that RRR is a Tamil movie, and she got massively trolled for it as well. In a recent interview, Priyanka opened up about the mistake.
In an interview with Mid Day, Priyanka Chopra opened up about getting trolled for calling RRR a Tamil movie. She said that people try to find mistakes in everything she does, and also how people enjoy doing this. She added that was a little ‘free-spirited’ earlier but now she has to be cautious because she also has a family she has to think about.
Talking about how people are willing to drag successful people down, the Citadel actress added that the higher one goes in life, the more people look for a reason for that person’s fall. Preferring to look at the brighter side of things, Priyanka Chopra said that she has a lot of support from her fans, friends and family, and she is choosing to focus on that.
Um, this felt like she brushed away the entire topic she was asked about. Not once did she talk about getting trolled for RRR.
