Priyanka Chopra dress row: Varun Dhawan defends 'Baywatch' actress for wearing short dress while meeting PM Modi

Mumbai:

Coming out in support of Priyanka Chopra, who is facing backlash for wearing a "short" dress while meeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Varun Dhawan said everyone must be proud of the actress.

 Priyanka, who met Modi in Berlin, uploaded apicture of hers with the PM on social media, where she was trolled for wearing a knee-length dress that showed her legs.

Was such a lovely coincidence to be in #berlin🇩🇪 at the same time as the Prime Minister. Thank you @narendramodi Sir for taking the time from your packed schedule to meet me this morning. 🇮🇳

The 34-year-old model-turned-actress was in Berlin to promote her debut Hollywood film "Baywatch". "She is someone we all should be proud of in ourcountry...she is making our country proud abroad.

All this is very stupid and social media trolling is not something that needs to become a national issue," Varun said. The "Main Tera Hero" star was talking on the sidelines of an event. Apparently unfazed by the trolling, the "Quantico"actress today posted a picture of her and her mother wearing ashort dress and captioned it: "Legs for the day..." 

Legs for days.... #itsthegenes with @madhuchopra nights out in #Berlin #beingbaywatch
