Confirming the same, Priyanka’s spokesperson said, “In light of recent allegations, Priyanka Chopra has chosen to terminate her contract with the Nirav Modi brand”.

Reportedly, Modi’s brand borrowed the huge amount of money by illegit means, without following official procedure.

Meanwhile, there were also rumours of actor Sidharth Malhotra (another endorser of the brand) seeking ways to move out of his contract with the brand.
