Bollywood and global superstar Priyanka Chopra is setting the record straight, and she’s not mincing her words. In a viral storm of misinformation, a quote falsely attributed to the actress has been doing the rounds on social media. But before the internet could run wild with assumptions, Priyanka pulled the brakes with a sharp and dignified response.
The quote in question, shared with a photo collage of the actress, read:
“Don’t look for a virgin as wife. Get a woman with good manners. Virginity ends in one night but manners last forever.” The statement, bold and controversial, was never actually said by her. Taking to her Instagram story, Priyanka clarified that the viral image and voiceover were entirely fake. She wrote: “This is not me, my quote or my voice. Just because it’s online, doesn’t make it true.”
She didn’t stop there. Addressing the wider issue of viral disinformation, the Citadel star warned her followers:
“Creating fake content is now an easy way to achieve virality. None of the links or ‘sources’ attached to this claim, or many others online, are real or credible. Take a minute to cross-check such content and don’t believe everything you scroll past. Stay safe online.”
The post quickly gained traction, with fans applauding her for calling out the trend of clickbait culture and fabricated content meant to farm views at the expense of truth. In a time when manipulated content, AI-generated voices, and viral quote cards are polluting timelines, Priyanka’s firm stance is a reminder that celebrity voices can—and should—fight back when truth is twisted.
