Simi Garewal comes to Priyanka Chopra’s defence
In the video shared by Simi Garewal, Priyanka begins by saying, “This is for my daddy.” In praise of the actress’ voice, Simi wrote, “India’s most desirable! Priyanka Chopra Jonas. Her dad’s dream for her was that she should become an international singer. She exceeded it by becoming a super global star.”
While other users praised Priyanka, one social media user wrote, “So much drama in singing, probably to cover the flaws. You’d notice that actual trained singers don’t have this much drama.” Simi wrote in retaliation, “Drama?? Where was the drama? Do elaborate…(if you can!)” and paired it with a rolling eyes emoji.

(smiling face with halo emoji).” The clip originates from 2012. In 2013, however, Priyanka had lost her father.
