Actor Priyanka Chopra took a dig at Hasan Minhaj as a mark of support for Pakistani activist Malala Yousafzai.
Malala had earlier shared a reel of the comedian pretending to express the grief that she had unfollowed him on Instagram in a sketch, mentioning that she wasn’t going to follow him anymore.
Priyanka posted a screenshot of Hasan’s profile, showing that she wasn’t following him back either.
Priyanka wrote, “Same girl, same Malala. Looks like he prefers petty over funny.”
This all started when Hasan Minhaj made a statement that she did not follow back Malala on Instagram. This prompted Malala to ask her fans whether she unfollows Minhaj, and she did it after many deliberations.
Then, the comedian Minhaj came up with this video:
