Asked about it at the Dadasaheb Phalke Academy Awards here on Thursday night here, Madhu said: “Why are you asking such stupid questions at such a good event’ Ask me what she discussed with PM on that day. Priyanka Chopra had discussion with PM Narendra Modi about current issues.”
Madhu was happy to receive the International Icon Award on behalf of Priyanka at the awards event.
The proud mother added: “She gave a fitting reply to her social media trollers (by uploading another picture on Instagram) and I don’t want to degrade the value of her reaction by commenting on it.”
