She quipped, “I wonder where Priyanka got her accent from?” This seemingly innocuous question carried an undertone of sarcasm, hinting at the perception that Priyanka’s American accent was not entirely authentic.
Kareena’s comment sparked curiosity and speculation about the nature of their relationship, as it was known that both actresses had been in the industry for a significant period and had crossed paths multiple times, including their collaboration in the film Don: The Chase Begins Again in 2006
Priyanka Chopra later addressed Kareena’s comment during her own appearance on the show. When Karan Johar brought up the question, Priyanka responded with a sharp retort: “I think it’s the same place that her boyfriend gets it from.” This comment referred to Kareena’s then-boyfriend, now husband Saif Ali Khan, who had studied abroad. Priyanka’s quick wit not only deflected the jab, but also highlighted the playful banter that often characterizes their interactions.
The rivalry between Kareena and Priyanka in the past, was a topic of discussion among fans and industry insiders. Sources had indicated that their competitive dynamic intensified during the filming of Aitraaz, where both actresses were vying for attention and accolades.
A source had revealed to Mumbai Mirror, “It hit Kareena like a bolt from the blue when her friend turned out to be an able competitor.” This competition reportedly culminated in a heated argument at a concert in Antwerp, Belgium, where the two actresses almost came to blows, necessitating intervention from others present.
Despite their tumultuous history, the relationship between Kareena and Priyanka has evolved over the years. In 2018, they appeared together on Koffee With Karan once again, signaling a thaw in their previously frosty interactions. During this episode, they shared laughs and reminisced about their past, indicating that they had moved on from any lingering animosity. Priyanka remarked, “I think we didn’t even know each other. We never spent time enough with each other. By the time we did, we really started to get along.”
As of now, both actresses are busy with their respective projects. Priyanka Chopra is set to appear in the Hollywood film The Bluff, while Kareena Kapoor Khan is gearing up for Singham Again, a highly anticipated addition to Rohit Shetty’s Cop Universe. This film features a star-studded cast, including Ajay Devgn, Deepika Padukone, and Tiger Shroff.
