Deepika Padukone opens up about friendship with Priyanka Chopra

After they appeared on Season 4 of Karan Johar’s ‘Koffee with Karan’ (2014), there was much talk of how close Deepika Padukone and Priyanka Chopra are. However, after Padukone’s stint in Hollywood, speculation of their fall out were rife. Now it seems the two actress’ may have patched things up.

Whilst talking the media, Padukone was question about her equation with Chopra, where they were referred to as friends. “I like the fact that you use the word ‘friend’, because that’s what she is to me. So, every time I read anything that doesn’t say that [we are friends], it really surprises me. I have always said that she is someone I’ve known for many years. I feel extremely awkward and weird when such comparisons are made, because I don’t even believe that we are professional rivals,” Hindustan Times reports the actress explaining.

Chopra was later asked about the same, where she expressed, “You (media) said we are friends. Earlier, you all used to write we are BFFs (best friends forever) so how did this change, why and how it changed? I did not say it has changed, you said it has changed. I am clarifying that whatever was earlier it is same today also. Your perspective has changed and that shouldn’t have happened.”
