Asthmatic Priyanka Chopra Caught Smoking, Fans Call her Hypocrite

It was not long ago that Priyanka Chopra opened up about suffering from asthma. But, looks like the actress who was running a "no smoking" and a "no cracker' Diwali last year forgot to practice what she has been preaching.

Recently, she was spotted smoking a cigarette on a yacht while her mother Madhu Chopra and husband Nick Jonas were smoking a Cigar during her birthday celebrations.

Within no time her photo went viral on social media and as always netizens left no stone unturned to troll the global icon.

For those unaware, last year, Priyanka had collaborated with a brand for an ad campaign to educate the people about asthma and spread awareness and promote active medical assistance against the chronic disease. The actress also revealed that she was diagnosed with asthma at the age of 5, but that did not stop her from achieving the highs in her career.

Now, netizens are criticising the PeeCee for being a "hypocrite" and "fake". Fans also dug out an old tweet from 2010 in which Priyanka wrote, "Smoking is awful!!! Yuck!!!"

The actress, who had supported an anti-pollution campaign during Diwali, was also called out for enjoying fireworks during her wedding in December last year.

One user tweeted: "So sweet - Priyanka Chopra trying to cure the asthma she developed on Diwali." Another said, "Dear Indians please don't burst crackers for Diwali since Priyanka Chopra has Asthma."
