‘My cousins, my brothers’: Old podcast clip of Priyanka Chopra resurfaces amid Allahbadia controversy

Ranveer Allahbadia is making headlines for all the wrong reasons following the ongoing controversy surrounding “India’s Got Latent”. A video from one of his previous interviews with Priyanka Chopra has resurfaced on social media and is gaining attention.

In the clip, Priyanka shared her thoughts on the importance of family, which has now sparked a fresh wave of reactions.

During their conversation, Ranveer asked Priyanka, "Do you still go for family functions and all that? Can you? Because of the fame angle."

Priyanka appeared puzzled and asked for clarification.

Ranveer elaborated, saying, "You've reached this (gestures with arms) level of fame, I can't imagine you."

However, Priyanka didn’t hold back and responded, "So? Are you saying I'm not going to dance at the baraat of my brother's wedding?"

When Ranveer casually replied, "maybe," Priyanka quickly fired back, "Maybe nahi bhai. Of course. My cousins, my brothers... Family is most important to me. My fame is a by-product of my job; it doesn't define me. Fame is not my job. It's very clear to me. I'm not famous for a living, I work for a living, and fame comes with it. It's something I can't control. It’s thrust upon me."

The clip has resurfaced just as Ranveer Allahbadia faces backlash over his controversial remarks during a recent “India’s Got Latent” episode. His comments sparked outrage on social media, leading to widespread condemnation. Following the controversy, legal action was taken against Ranveer, Samay Raina, and others who appeared as judges on the show.

On February 12, comedian Samay Raina publicly addressed the issue, revealing that he had deleted all the videos from the show. He shared that the situation had been overwhelming and difficult for him to handle.
