Priyanka Chopra recently opened up about being “cornered” in Bollywood, which is why she decided to pack her bags and try her luck in America. Following her revelations, her Bollywood contemporary Kangana Ranaut tweeted in her support, and now, Priyanka’s cousin, actor Meera Chopra has also shared her two cents on the matter. Meera wrote on Twitter that Priyanka’s achievements are a ‘tight slap’ in the face of her detractors.

Meera retweeted Kangana’s Tweet and wrote about the plight of “outcomers” in the Hindi film industry. She wrote, “No matter how big or successful an outsider becomes, but in the end they will still be an outsider. Cutting them, smothering them will never stop, if you don’t follow the rule book. But what @priyankachopra achieved is a tight slap on their faces!!.”
