Priyanka Chopra wears tricolour scarf, 'hurts nation's pride'

No matter what she wears, Priyanka Chopra seems to be garnering attention, and a lot of online trolls. In May, she was at the receiving end of an avalanche of social media trolls after she posted a picture of her meeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Berlin, Germany. Indians were trolling PeeCee because she was wearing a short dress, and 'showing her legs' while meeting the prime minister. According to most comments, this was not in line with Indian 'tradition', and showed her as being disrespectful of the PM.

The trolls are back at her again after she posted an Independence Day Instagram video in which she sports a tricolour scarf. Looking chic in a white sleeveless top, a high-rise blue denim and the scarf around her neck, PeeCee captioned the video: Independence Day #Vibes #MyHeartBelongsToIndia #happyindependencedayindia #jaihind. And now she is being trolled for 'disrespecting' the tricolour. The post which has already received over 2 million views, displays comments which say she is disrespecting the country, that she is obsessed with the western culture, and also suggests she wear traditional clothes.

That said, a lot of support is also flowing in for PeeCee on Instagram. The heated debate shows comments which point out that even Modi had worn tricolour scarf on International Yoga Day. Where was the outrage then, some ask. Some users also try to reason out that Priyanka is in fact not disrespecting the Indian flag—her scarf has just the tricolour without the Ashoka Chakra!

Priyanka, who is also the queen of comebacks on social media, has not yet responded to these fresh set of trolls. When she was brutally trolled for the 'short dress', a few days later, she posted a photograph on Instagram—an epic response to all the trolls shaming her. It was the photograph of the actor with her mother, Madhu Chopra, showing Priyanka wearing a denim dress with a slit, and her mother in a short skirt and top. Priyanka had a kickass caption, too, which we are sure, did burn some trolls. She captioned the image as: 'Legs for days...#itsthegenes'.
