Few shows have left as permanent a mark as Simi Garewal's 'Simi Selects India's Most Desirable,' which graced our screens in 2011. A captivating talk show that featured some of Bollywood's brightest stars, it provided an intimate glimpse into the lives and dreams of our favorite celebrities. Recently, the iconic host Simi Garewal shared a heartwarming throwback clip from the show featuring none other than global sensation Priyanka Chopra. In this memorable moment, Priyanka paid a touching musical tribute to her beloved father, Dr. Ashok Chopra. However, the social media world is rarely devoid of critiques, and an unexpected comment sparked a defense by the gracious host herself.

Taking to her Instagram account, Simi Garewal transported us back in time, sharing a snippet that featured Priyanka Chopra Jonas, India's most desirable, as Simi affectionately dubbed her. The video clip rekindled nostalgia but also shed light on Priyanka's father's aspirations for her. Dr. Ashok Chopra dreamt that his daughter would become an international singing sensation. Little did he know that she would ascend to the pinnacle of global stardom. In a playful moment of speculation, Simi suggested that Priyanka and her husband, the talented Nick Jonas, should consider collaborating on a musical duet, confidently stating that it would be nothing short of sensational.

The highlight of this nostalgic clip was Priyanka Chopra's soul-stirring rendition of Mariah Carey's iconic ballad, 'Hero.' Priyanka sang her heart out, dedicating the song to her father with the tender words, "This is for my daddy." It was a moving moment, made all the more emotional by the knowledge that Dr. Ashok Chopra is no longer with us, having passed away in 2013.
However, as is often the case in the realm of social media, where opinions flow freely, an unsolicited critique emerged. A commenter opined that Priyanka's rendition was infused with unnecessary drama, perhaps employed as a smokescreen to mask any vocal imperfections. This perspective insinuated that trained singers usually refrained from such dramatic theatrics. However, Simi Garewal, known for her poise and graceful demeanor, was quick to respond to the criticism.
In her retort, Simi challenged the claim of drama and humorously invited the commenter to provide a more detailed explanation—presumably, if they could. She even threw in an emoji sporting rolling eyes to convey her amusement. She emphasized the importance of defending one's honor and values and lauded Priyanka for her courage in doing so.
On the work front, Priyanka Chopra is gearing up for some exciting on-screen appearances. She's set to star alongside John Cena and Idris Elba in 'Heads Of State,' creating anticipation for their charismatic collaboration. Additionally, Priyanka is part of Farhan Akhtar's 'Jee Le Zaraa,' sharing the screen with Alia Bhatt and Katrina Kaif, a star-studded ensemble that has fans eagerly awaiting its release.
