After a daily printed a story about Parineeti Chopra being upset and angry over Sonakshi Sinha's act at the IIFA Awards, the actress lashed out at the paper in a series of tweets. The newspaper had reported, “Parineeti was very upset and angry with Sonakshi's act. She felt that she could have done a good job on stage with the mic too. On seeing Sonakshi perform to her Lootera song, she was literally fuming.” The report also said the actress didn't appreciate the fact she was not approached to sing at the IIFA Awards 2015. Being a trained classical singer, the opportunity to perform in Malaysia went to Sonakshi, who surprised the audience by singing 'Sawaar Loon' from her film 'Lootera'.
An irritated Parineeti took to the microblogging website to vent her anger. Her tweets read: “Dear DNA,what is the point of asking for my quote when you're going to print a negative story anyway? Better to ignore your messages then! Its so disheartening to see a story that is absolutely untrue, even when I have respectfully answered your query! So disappointed. #DNA”
“Don't try and spoil our relationships with each other. All us actors are friends. We support each other. BELIEVE IT ONCE AND FOR ALL!@dna”
“I still respect your newspaper very much, my reaction is ONLY to this story. @dna” Reports of her sister Priyanka Chopra being upset with Anushka Sharma made headlines earlier.
