From alleged Bollywood ban to Gauri Khan's 'displeasure', here's all we know

Publish date: 2024-08-30

Gauri Khan's friends including Karan Johar boycotted Priyanka Chopra for her closeness with Shah Rukh Khan in 2012.

Priyanka Chopra recently revealed that she was being 'pushed into a corner in the industry' because of which he had to leave Bollywood. On a recent podcast, she said, "I had people not casting me, I had beef with people, and I am not good at playing that game so I kind of was tired of the politics and I said I needed a break. This music thing gave me an opportunity to go into another part of the world, not crave the movies I didn't want to get but I would require to schmooze certain clubs and cliques of people. It would require grovelling and I had worked a long time by then that I didn't feel like I wanted to do it." Later, Kangana Ranaut supported the actress and slammed Karan Johar for ‘bullying’ Priyanka and forcing her to leave India. 

Let's take a look at what actually happened between her and Karan Johar:

Later, while speaking to Mumbai Mirror, Priyanka Chopra’s friend talked about Karan Johar’s behaviour towards the actress and said, “At a recent party, while he (Karan) was feeding her cupcakes, she heard rumours of him b*tching her out-all this is very hurtful.”

Her friend further said, “Priyanka has done nothing wrong. If these women are insecure about their relationships with their husbands, they should sort it out with them, at home. Why should they attack her.”
