Twitter frenzy over Priyanka-Tanmay’s “joke”
Comedian Tanmay Bhatt was given a taste of his own medicine after he poked fun at Priyanka Chopra’s accent.
While Bhatt softened his tone by saying that the message on Twitter was meant as a compliment, fans trolled Bhatt and was slammed for his comments.
When I say @priyankachopra's name in my head I now automatically pronounce it like "Priyaaaanka Chopruh"
