Priyanka Chopra Production House's latest film is Pahuna, a Sikkimese movie directed by Paakhi Tyrewala. Priyanka recently stated that Sikkim was troubled with insurgency.

Priyanka messed it up again with her General Knowledge. If we remember correctly, back in the year 2000, when Priyanka Chopra was competing in the Miss World Pageant, she had stated that India's population was 2 Billion. Not only that, when she was asked a question at the Miss World Final Event as to who she thought was an inspiring woman living today, she named Mother Teresa. Interestingly, Mother Teresa died in 1997.

Priyanka continues her GK Mess 17 years later. She is currently attending the Toronto International Film Festival with her production house's (Purple Pebble Pictures) latest offering, Pahuna, a Sikkimese movie directed by Paakhi Tyrewala. In one of her recent interviews, Priyanka Chopra said, "Sikkim is a small state in the Northeast of India which never had a film industry of its own or anyone who made films from there and this is the first film ever that came out from this region because it is very troubled with insurgency...".

Many people asked Priyanka to get her facts right. Here's what Twitterati had to say:
