@areesha91: "Last time I checked being creative meant more than being naked...FYI @priyankachopra a "Saree" comes with a blouse! Just in case you forgot. My problem is if you wanna go topless thats absolutely fine!...but wearing a saree & NOT even showing it in the picture does not do justice to you or the culture!"

@aliaa_hassani: "But it doesn't look that you are wearing a saree."

@Smrootloops: "It's misleading. It's a saree that you can't even tell is actually a saree. This is what people of color always have to deal with. Get used for our "diversity card", but hide what actually makes us diverse by forcing us to fit into a box that is more palatable to western taste. another ridiculous travesty of inclusion. Thought Priyanka was smarter than that."

For the unversed, in the viral photoshoot, Priyanka is seen donning a Tarun Tahiliani saree. When the designer was asked about the ongoing trolling, he said Mid-day, "There's nothing vulgar about it.
