Is Big Boss 16 2nd runner-up Priyanka Chahar Chaudhary working in Shah Rukh Khan’s next movie Dunki? Fact Check busts the Bollywood buzz.

Priyanka Chahar Choudhary has shot to instant limelight after becoming 2nd runner-up of the popular yet controversial TV show Bigg Boss. Rapper MC Stan walked out of the house as the winner. The show is hosted by Bollywood’s Dabangg star Salman Khan and it makes the show all the more TRP-grosser. After the end of every season, some lady contestant is reported to be taking off from “Salman Khan Airport” to land in tinsel town as the next “heroine” of some awaited blockbuster. This time, the goddess of fortunes smiled on Priyanka and, if the social media grapevine is to be trusted, she is making her debut with none other than the King of Bollywood Shah Rukh Khan in his other awaited movie Dunki.

Priyanka’s fans are flooding social media with the news of the arrival of their favorite star the superstar. However, the facts may pinch the balloon of their overjoyousa excitement.

Claims of actress’ fans

As soon as the finale of the show was over and the Bigg Boss was ruling the TRP charts, fans of Priyanka began heralding that the model/actress would now rule the hearts of Indian cine-goers and romance King Khan on the silver screen.

Even many verified Bollywood buzz pages shared the news regarding the same.

Bollywood Life, a verified page writes — Bigg Boss 16: Priyanka Chahar Choudhary talks about Dunki; REVEALS Salman Khan told her to go and meet Shah Rukh Khan, ‘I am thankful…’

#BiggBoss16 #BiggBoss16PriyankaChaharChoudhary #Dunki #PriyankaChaharChoudhary #SalmanKhan.”

Many other social media users too shared the same claim. In fact, a leading film portal tellychakkar.com confirmed quoting the actress that she would do the movie with SRK as Salman Khan told her about meeting SRK and discuss the role.

Fact Check:

To check the veracity of the viral claims, the DFRAC team did a keyword search for the same and stumbled upon an interview of Priyanka given to a Bollywood buzz page running with the name of Bollywood Spy.

During the interview when she was asked about the claims being made on social media, she denied all of them and said that people might have misunderstood her, but she has not even talked about this scenario to anybody.

She further states that she will love to work with the Gods of Bollywood, but yet no one has approached her for the movie.

In an interview with ETimes, she cleared: “I don’t have any idea about Shah Rukh Khan sir’s film because I have just come out and haven’t got a chance to speak with anyone. Salman Sir had asked me to meet him after the show that I know but there is nothing more to it as of now. For me both SRK and Salman sir are like God. I have no idea about the offers.”

Conclusion:

Contrary to the buzz of tinsel town, reports of film portals, and frenzy of fans, Priyanka Chahar Chaudhary, according to checking of facts, is not doing King Khan’s upcoming venture Dunki. All the reports and claims of her bagging the films are misleading.
