What Akshay Kumar Said About 'Fallout' With Priyanka Chopra

Darpan News Desk IANS, 03 Feb, 2017 11:32 AM
  • What Akshay Kumar Said About 'Fallout' With Priyanka Chopra
Akshay Kumar’s recent appearance on Aap Ki Adalat devolved right down to one thing – had he ever had a relationship with Priyanka Chopra? And for the millionth time the actor rubbished the idea. 
 
Throughout her career, Priyanka has remained tight-lipped about her love life. And, of course, similar to all the aunties who begin to theorize what you’re doing in your free time (and with whom), everyone began to link the actress with her leading men, some of them married. Akshay Kumar, Shahrukh Khan, Shahid Kapoor and whoever else. 
 
 
The frenzy comes from the idea of a successful single person not being attached to any significant other to the malicious point that we begin to link them to married people (‘If Priyanka won’t give us a scandal, we’ll create a scandal’). People calm down a little around Deepika Padukone or Anushka Sharma because even if they haven’t tied the knot, at least they have a man by their side.
 
This morbid curiosity isn’t just an Indian thing either. People immediately began Tom Hiddleston and Priyanka rumours when they two were spotted during an awards show together – no matter if they were never seen together again. We might never know why Priyanka remains so closed about her life. 
 
 
Maybe she isn’t interested in a relationship or maybe she’s in one and is fiercely guarding her privacy. For all we know, she might not be interested in men at all. Of course, when someone fights so hard to secure their personal life, it’s sad that instead of respecting their wish, the exact opposite happens.
 
We’d like to say that it’s just something women are subject to (and perhaps this might be true to some extent), but let’s not forget the continuous onslaught that Salman Khan faces for being single (read: abnormal). It’s ironic that “Shaadi kab karoge” have a million, violent memes on the internet and yet, single celebrities are subject to almost a similar trauma.
