Priyanka Chopra Jonas' Citadel takes raunchy jibe at Kate Middleton

Priyanka Chopra and her recently released spy-thriller series Citadel have triggered a chat on social media handles. The Amazon show became the point of discussion over a raunchy dialogue about the Princess of Wales. The dialogue has been taken as a dig at Kate by many due to the closeness Priyanka shares with Meghan Markle.

For those who don’t know, Chopra and Meghan have been very close friends since 2016. They first met at Elle’s Women in Television event.

In the Russo brothers-backed show, Priyanka is playing the role of a secret agent named Nadia Sinh, and in the recently released third episode, Chopra’s character Nadia sends her partner Mason Kane (played by Richard Madden) to meet with crime leader Balduino Basto (Sen Monro).

In the scene in question, Priyanka, who does not appear in person, is having a conversation with the crime honcho, Balduin.

Later, when asked how to break into the office of the armed forces chief, Balduino tells Mason: “The chief of armed forces? You might as well have asked me how to get between the legs of the Duchess of Cambridge.”

Middleton was given the Duchess of Cambridge title after her marriage to Prince William. She was later given the title of Princess of Wales after Queen Elizabeth II died in September last year.

Prime Video has not reacted to the controversy yet. Furious over the obscene dialogue, netizens were quick to slam the show, Chopra and Meghan. “I just lost interest in this show.” One user commented. Another user commented, “Might want to be successful before making any jabs.” ‘Priyanka Chopra and Meghan Markle are two peas in a pod. I hadn’t heard about her until she was in a relationship with Nick Jonas and put out massive PR stunts. Sophie Turner, who married a Jonas brother, is by far a bigger star than her, but she has no publicity stunts,’’ a third user commented. (Agencies)
