Parineeti Chopra Sparks Controversy with Childhood Financial Struggles Claim in a recent video. Further, she comes upfront clarifying her words. Deets inside.
Recently, during a promotional event at an army school for her film “Mission Raniganj,” actress Parineeti Chopra made a statement about her past, saying, “I used to go to school on a cycle because we didn’t have enough money. We couldn’t afford a car, a driver, or even bus fare.”
One of her former classmates came forward on social media, criticizing her for what he perceived as dishonesty. He expressed, “Shame… coming from a privileged background and lying through the teeth in front of the camera. I guess this is what being a celebrity means. Create a fabricated sob story of no money, no car, etc., etc.”
This statement led to a heated debate on social media. Many netizens accuse the “Ishqzaade” actress of exaggerating or even falsifying her experiences. Some also pointed out that she had moved to the UK for higher studies at the age of 17, indicating a level of privilege.
Clarification statement by Parineeti Chopra
Amidst the ongoing debate, the newly-married celebrity took to Twitter to offer further clarification.
She stated, ” I know I said this even that day but somehow it’s been misconstrued, about something very irrelevant about me having a car or not!! I was talking about using a car and driver to go to school that’s all. The essence of what and why I was giving that example was completely lost. I am proud to be present at a time when girls are becoming stronger with training in martial arts.”
She further added, “If I had had such an opportunity back then, I know I would have felt much more confident! I am responding now as I was travelling out of the country all this while. I would request everyone concerned to please not let menial things like this take precedence over what I was actually trying to say, about women’s safety and the challenges that we girls face while growing up.”
She ended her note with a Thank you!
On personal front
Despite her attempt to clarify, some still take issue with Parineeti Chopra’s comparison of her privileged upbringing to a less privileged one. They argue that even today, many children use a cycle or bus to get to school. They suggest she could have shared an example of someone else’s struggle instead. As the saying goes, once words are spoken, they cannot be taken back.
On a personal note, Parineeti Chopra recently tied the knot with Raghav Chadha, the youngest politician in the nation, garnering significant media attention. Immediately after her wedding celebrations finished she started promoting her upcoming drama Mission Raniganj generating this controversy. We extend our warm wishes to the couple for a happy and controversy-free married life ahead.
