Priyanka Chopra gets slammed for clicking selfies at Holocaust Memorial, deletes pics
Mumbai: Priyanka Chopra’s recent trip to the German city of Berlin for the promotions of her Hollywood debut ‘Baywatch’ landed her in not one, but two controversies.
Priyanka was trolled for wearing a short dress while meeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The actress, however, shot off the moral police with a sassy 'legs for days' post along with mother.
While the first controversy was completely unjustified and blown out of proportion, Priyanka is now being slammed for clicking selfies at the Holocaust Memorial, created in memory of 6 million Jews killed and buried in mass graves during Hitler's rule.
The actress had clicked selfies with her brother Siddharth at the memorial and posted them on Instagram as a story, captioning them, 'Holocaust Memorial #Berlin" and "sidharthchopra89 and I being tourists. There is such an eerie silence here.'
Twitter went berserk over the actress’ selfies, with users calling her 'insensitive crazy', asking if it was 'respectable', calling it an 'attention-seeking stunt' and much more.

Why is it okay for @priyankachopra to take selfies at the #Berlin #holocaust #memorial? She isn't striking yoga poses & all that but really?

Taking selfies at the Holocaust Memorial sounds like EXACTLY something @priyankachopra would do tbh.

Following the uproar, Priyanka later deleted the pictures.
Priyanka had previously also courted controversy for the caption on her T-shirt with 'refugee,' 'immigrant' and 'outsider' struck out in favour of 'traveler,' on a magazine cover.
