When Priyanka 'smacked' Karan Johar and Rohit Shetty played a part in it
Mumbai: Priyanka Chopra might have been known as a ‘global star’ today owing to her multiple international projects, but the actress will always remain a ‘Desi Girl’ for her fans.
That’s the reason she still makes headlines whenever she lands in India, something that has been evident in her recent visit.
From a dazzling performance at an awards show to empowering statements at the Penguin Annual Lecture and a UNICEF event, the actress has been very much a part of the news.
While there is no certainty about her next Bollywood film, she did collaborate with two of the most popular filmmakers, albeit only for a TV show.
Priyanka was the first guest on the Karan Johar and Rohit Shetty hosted ‘India’s Next Superstars’ recently.
The actress was a part of an interesting act on the show, according to a report in Mid-day.
'Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge' happens to be one of Priyanka's favourite films and the actress insisted on re-enacting a particular scene where Karan, much before his 'debut' in 'Bombay Velvet', gets punched by Shah Rukh Khan when he visits Amrish Puri’s store to buy beer bottles.
Rohit became Amrish Puri and Priyanka stepped into Shah Rukh’s shoes as she smacked Karan and also revealed that he wanted to smack him ever since she saw the particular scene.
We’d like to see how the scene unfolds when the episode airs, and what was Karan’s reaction.
Also considering Priyanka and SRK’s alleged rift following their rumoured break-up, it was interesting that she still called the latter’s film as her favourite.
