Pakistani actor Adnan Siddiqui has criticised Priyanka Chopra for referring to filmmaker Sharmeen Obaid Chinoy as a ‘south-asian’ instead of Pakistani while congratulating her for bagging an untitled ‘Star Wars’ film as a director. Adnan shared a picture of PeeCee’s post and tweeted, ‘With due respect, @priyankachopra Sharmeen Obaid Chinoy is a Pakistani first just to brush up your knowledge. Much like the way you flaunt your Indian nationality whenever you get the opportunity before claiming to be a South Asian.’ Several netizens backed Adnan by responding to his tweet with messages like ‘Very true Adnan bro’, ‘Lol when it’s an Indian then “it’s INDIAN” but when it’s a Pakistani they suddenly become “south Asian” Pakistan kehtay hui takleef hoti ha ?’ For more news and updates, stay tuned to ETimes.
