The picture of Priyanka Chopra and Salman Khan is Not from the movie "Salaam E Ishq: A tribute to love." It is in fact a still from "Mujhse Shaadi Karogi". So I have corrected it. The website where it was found from is wrong in saying this is a still from that movie. This is a link to prove it. http://www.radiosargam.com/downloads/moviestills/m/mujhseshaadikarogi/index.html?album=11(Shakirfan 22:58, 19 March 2006 (UTC))

[edit] Picture

Ok...can we please agree on a picture? This is really becoming irritating! The tug of war needs to stop immediately! So to the person, or persons, that keep changing the picture every other day, please choose one and let it be...Thanks!

I want to change the profile picture, I think the picture should be more recent, but would like to agree on which one it should be so it doesn't result in an edit war. Does anyone have any suggestions, or any particular favorite picture of Priyanka Chopra? Sinbihaeyo 01:34, 08 October 2006 (UTC)

Changed again?????--Victor D ^PARLE 23:58, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

I'll always replace this hazy picture (Image:PriyankaChops.jpg) with a better version (Image:Pc19.jpg) from Commons. --Victor D ^PARLE 18:45, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Controversies

• Few years back a leading Indian magazine alleged that Priyanka's father Dr. Ashok Chopra behaved inapproprately with a 12 years old girl.

I have moved this here until we can find a verifiable source for this. -- Mayuresh 14:09, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

• "This African looking handicapped actress is the daughter of Dr. Ashok Chopra, who had a drinking problem and more seriously allegedly viciouslyraped a 12 year old girl. The news item was revealed was Mumbai magazine "Savvy". This news item suddenly went underground, allegedly due to Priyanka being "kept woman" of lecherous Zee TV owner Subhash Chandra!"

Removed the above unsourced and potentially libelous material. Drake 19:07, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

She's real hot —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.135.226.4 (talk • contribs)

in the bio they where saying shes 5f 3... thts NOT true..I changed it to 5f 8... Sunnybondsinghjalwehra 20:04, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

I reverted your change, as the one source we have says 1.63 meters, not 1.83. That's not a very good source -- do you have a better one? I thought your change was vandalism, sorry. Zora 20:07, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Replaced model infobox

I replaced the model infobox with the actor infobox -- since none of the measurements are sourced, and since using a model infobox suggests that she's not a REAL actress. Zora 23:42, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Also, aren't we going overboard with the references by placing them in the infobox? This is unnecessary and such references can be moved into the article itself. Ekantik ^talk 04:21, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

I placed those references in the infobox because someone deliberately tries to manipulate the figures always. --Victor D ^PARLE 00:49, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Deliberate vandalism and spamming

Vandals try to deliberately change the facts and figures like date of birth, etc. Also there has been repeated spamming by addition of fan sites e.g. http://priyanka-forever.com and http://www.priyankachopra.org. I've added hidden text in in the infobox and external links section mentioning Wiki guidelines. Is protection or semi-protection of the article or part of it the solution? --Victor D ^PARLE 18:22, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Views on marriage etc.?

Need a section on Priyanka's views on relationships and marriage. Has she been romantically linked with her co-stars? It says here that she has a strong opinion on live-in relationships. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Sarkar2 (talk • contribs) 04:41, 8 April 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Regarding a photo

People like us are scared to upload pictures anymore. These tags of picture (GFDL, screenshots and all) sometimes makes no sense to attach with. Whenever u upload a picture, someone will mark it as 'Violation of wiki image upload policy' and the pic will be deleted within 2 weeks. So, these days people are refraining from uploading any pictures and so am i. --Jayanta 14:23, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Comment to Priyanka Chopra's name in Hindi

Looking into Hindi Wikipedia as well as to Google it seems that the correct orthography is using short a after ya, see e.g. story at josh18.com, about Priyanka at bhaskar.com, story at indianpad.com. Another orthography, namely प्रियंका चौपडा, is used at oneindia.in. I have therefore changed the Hindi version to प्रियंका. Long a after ya is used in the Marathi and Bengali Wikipedias. Moreover, the surname in Marathi Wikipedia is चोप्रा. As Marathi Wikipedian Mahitgar (see my talk page) wrote me a short time ago, Marathi does not use Devanagari characters with nuktas, therefore they probably transliterate ड़ as र and join it in order to form a common conjunct with preceding प. --Zdeněk Wagner (talk) 17:14, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
