Priyanka Chopra demands Phulera's lauki in video call with Panchayat's Pradhan ji. Watch
In the video, Priyanka and Raghubir can be seen talking about their recent releases, Heads Of State and Panchayat Season 4. In his signature style, Pradhan Ji first sought Priyanka's permission to address her as 'Priyanka bitiya'. Meanwhile, Priyanka playfully asked Pradhan Ji to send some lauki (bottle gourd) from Phulera, joking that it's hard to find in New York.
For the unversed, the bottle gourd is an important plot element in the web show Panchayat.
Pradhan Ji also tells Priyanka that the village of Phulera is proud of her. In response, Priyanka shares that she has watched Panchayat Season 4 and calls him the true star of the elections. The clip ends with PeeCee urging audiences in India to watch her film Heads of State.
Reacting to the clip, a fan wrote, 'The collab nobody saw coming 😂🔥,' while another added, 'John Cena Bhi Pradhan Ji Ka Fan Hai 😂.' A fan also posted, 'What a collaboration..Funny and lovely.' 'What a surprise,' added another.
While Panchayat stars Jitendra Kumar, Raghibir Yadav and Neena Gupta in the lead roles, Priyanka Chopra's latest film Heads Of State also stars John Cena and Ibris Elba.
Both Panchayat Season 4 and Heads of State had released to mixed reviews. In his review of Heads of State, SCREEN's Rohan Naahar wrote, 'Directed by Ilya Naishuller, who previously made Hardcore Henry and Nobody, Heads of State is the kind of Prime Video programming that enters your eyeballs, bypasses your brain, and leaks out of your ears.' Meanwhile, an excerpt from Panchayat review read, 'It was evident in the previous season that Panchayat was keen on expanding its canvas and escalating the drama. The changes in the tone and feel of the series are more pronounced in the new season. Such changes are welcome as long as it does not make the narrative tedious. However, the dramatic moments don't translate into a riveting experience.'

Tamannaah Bhatia recalls working with Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan: ‘He rehearsed continuously for two and a half hours'
Actor Tamannaah Bhatia recently reflected on her collaborations with the Khan duo — Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan. While she once shared the stage with Salman, it was an ad shoot that brought her together with SRK. Recalling the experience, Tamannaah mentioned performing with Salman Khan during the Da-Bangg The Tour Reloaded in Dubai, where they danced to the popular track 'Munni Badnaam'. In an interview with The Lallantop, she was shown a photo from that memorable performance. Reacting to same, she said, 'The one and only Salman. It's a picture from Dubai. He is so inspiring. When I saw him on the tech rehearsal, he was on the stage without stopping for two and a half hours.' Tamannaah added, 'The music was on, other people were entering and leaving the act, he was continuously there, I don't know how. To stand on the stage for so long, it needs a lot of energy. When he did the tech, I understood that it's such a long process.' ALSO READ | Ten years later, I still don't care why Kattappa killed Baahubali: Was SS Rajamouli's fantasy drama even that great? Tamannaah Bhatia collaborated with Shah Rukh Khan on an ad film for an online clothing brand, as well as a commercial for another brand's ethnic wear collection. When displayed a picture of the duo, she instantly smiled and said, 'The one who has made us know what love is. I remember that we shot an ad film and Shah Rukh took a photo with each and every person. There were around 200 people on the set on that day; he took a picture with everyone.' The host was quick to ask why she called Ajay Devgn 'sir' but didn't do the same for Shah Rukh Khan. 'When I met Ajay, I have a memory from when I was young. Humesha uss age mein, vo point vahin par atak jaata hai (You get stuck in that particular time loop). I have a memory of him from there, that's why I call him 'sir'. I worked with Shah Rukh much later.' On the professional front, Tamannaah Bhatia was last seen in Sikandar ka Muqaddar, opposite Avinash Tiwary and Jimmy Shergill. She has Odela 2, Amazon Prime Video's Daring Partners, and director Jagan Shakti's next in the pipeline.
