Priyanka Chopra seeks legal opinion on exiting deal with Nirav Modi

February 16, 2018 09:23

Priyanka Chopra, roped in last year as ambassador for Nirav Modi's jewellery designer brand, hasn't sued the billionaire but is getting legal opinion to cancel her deal, the actor's spokesperson said after the 48-year-old emerged as the target of a massive probe into an Rs 11,000 crore scandal.

"There are speculative reports that Priyanka Chopra has sued Nirav Modi. This is not true. However, she is currently seeking legal opinion with respect to terminating her contract with the brand in light of allegations of financial fraud against Nirav Modi," her spokesperson said in a brief statement.

Chopra, who scored Hollywood success with her hit series Quantico, has been associated with the luxury diamond jewellery brand as its brand ambassador since January 2017.
