The actress who always speaks about social issues had earlier said that even a star like her can’t ignore the pressure ‘glorification of trolling’ creates. Chopra said that it adds “crazy pressure” on entertainers, and she feels that the rapid culture of trolling celebrities can only lead to bullying and depression. “Those are the pressures that are not even created by us or the fans. It is just created by the one thing, which is the Internet. It has made people’s job easier… You can make a story out of anybody’s comment,” the Quantico star told IANS in an interview when asked about the pressure that comes with the tag of being a ‘global star.’
Priyanka was last seen pairing with Liam Hemsworth and Rebel Wilson for Isn’t It Romantic?
