PM Narendra Modi's Protocol Officer On Priyanka's Dress Squabble

People in the entertainment industry work hard to get fame and success. Unfortunately, the flip side of fame is that it brings you under scrutiny. Remember Priyanka's armpit controversy?

Oh, well...

Recently, Priyanka Chopra met Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Berlin. She posted a picture of this unplanned meeting on social media.

Within minutes of posting this picture, Priyanka started getting criticised for her choice of dress. The internet trolls made a big fuss out of this incident and slammed her for not wearing a Sari. ICYMI, you can read all about the controversy and Priyanka's kick-*ss comeback here.

In a recent media interaction Priyanka's mother Madhu Chopra said that the actor was taken aback by the backlash. She added,"Her neckline was right up to her jaw, her hands were covered. They met in the lobby before she was to go for a Baywatch promotional event. She couldn't have pleaded with the PM to give her two minutes so that she could wear a sari."

Co-founder of Purple Pebble Pictures and Priyanka's mom also revealed that the protocol officer had no objections about her outfit. "He and his team had no problem. In fact, we got an official communication from the protocol officer later that the PM had no issue with it. But the trolls on social media diluted the whole intent of the meeting," she says.

Mrs. Chopra said,"She(Priyanka) is a perfectionist to the core and plans her looks days in advance when she has to grace formal and informal occasions and red carpet events. Even her airport look is well planned. She doesn't even step out of her room unless she is dressed right,".
