Priyanka Chopra spoke about Deepika Padukone being mistaken for her and called it unfair. However, she did not miss calling herself the most popular brown faced celebrity in Hollywood.
Earlier, a video had come up where Western media were seen calling Deepika as Priyanka as she was exiting an airport. PeeCee said she had watched the video, and said it was not right on part of the Western media.
"I did see that and you know that's just ignorance and it's not right. I guess I am the most popular brown face that everyone has known. Every brown girl does not look the same. Don't mistake it. Let's try and tell us apart. That was not right and it's not fair. She's a massive star from India," Priyanka told Bollywoodlife.
Priyanka also said she had faced such identity crisis in the West initially.
"But it's also, like I understand I guess. When I went to America for the first time, at least Deepika had a film (XXX: The Return of Xander Cage). When I went to America for the first time, I would walk into the room and introduce myself. I don't expect people to know me either, because it's a different country. Just because I am a popular star in India doesn't mean the whole world has to know me. Just because I am a Bollywood actor doesn't mean people who do not watch Hindi movies have to know me. I am not entitled like that. I guess that is another aspect of this," she added.
While Deepika's XXX: The Return of Xander Cage had released in January this year, Priyanka will feature in Baywatch slated to hit the screens on May 25.
