Priyanka Chopra fans call out Bvlgari for misspelling her name; term it 'racist and offensive'

Priyanka Chopra was in Taormina, Sicily in Italy for the Bvlgari event. We have seen her pictures with Lisa of Blackpink. While Priyanka Chopra chose a champagne coloured dress from Christian Dior for the event, Lisa was in a white and yellow gown. The Quantico actress’ dress had golden embellishments. The actress has posted her moments from the event. We can see the venue, her hotel room, outfit and many such tidbits. What caught the notice of her fans was how her fan was misspelt on the dinner table. They had a sit-down dinner and her name was written as Pryianka Chopra Jonas.

Fans tagged the brand saying that they could have spelled her name correctly. Another user commented, “I find it racist and offensive when people cannot be bothered to check the spelling of an individual’s name. It’s just sad and I’ve experienced it countless times.” But others said it was not a big issue as only the ‘I’ and ‘Y’ were interchanged. They felt it was not that big of an offense.
