Tanmay Bhat is back in the line of fire for his jokes. After being subjected to an immense backlash for his Snapchat Sachin Vs Lata: Cvil War , in which he mimicked Lata Mangeshkar and Sachin Tendulkar, Tanmay has now managed to upset Priyanka Chopra’s fans with this tweet:
When I say @priyankachopra's name in my head I now automatically pronounce it like "Priyaaaanka Chopruh"

The Quantico actress, however sweetly replied, “I’m supposed to have the accent @thetanmay what happened to u? Lol.”

But while Priyanka may have taken Tanmay’s comment in jest, not so with her fans. Her tweet was followed by a barrage of remarks from fans who took Tanmay to task. TO which, Tanmay had this to say:
PC fans, kyu mujhpe chadh rahe ho, it was meant to be a compliment what is wrong with some of you smh
