The world saw Farhan Akhtar and Priyanka Chopra hug in good humour at the IIFA 2016 press conference held in Madrid, recently. However, the backstage story was very different. A media report suggested that they are not in good relations and the tiff started way before the awards when Akhtar showed interest in casting Deepika over Pee Cee for his upcoming 'Don 3'.
A source from IIFA said, "Where Deepika and Farhan were bonding off stage, Priyanka and Farhan kept safe distance from each other. They shared the stage together for the press conference and were cordial. Apart from that, they behaved as if they were strangers and that was quite surprising." The source also said the actress openly showed her irritation. When Priyanka was contacted, she said, "As per my knowledge that film is not happening now."
