Priyanka Chopra to promote Assam tourism

29th August 2016

Priyanka Chopra, who is currently busy with her Hollywood projects, has been approached by the State Government of Assam to be the brand ambassador of Assam tourism. While it came as a good news but soon it turned out to be controversy as some reports claimed that the actress is charging Rs. 1.5 crore a day and will earn Rs. 15 crores for a 10 day shoot.

However, the office of Assam Tourism Development has sent a letter, confirming that, "The media reports regarding the remuneration are false," reads the letter.

A source close to Priyanka said, "Priyanka was approached for the campaign, and she is keen to do it too. But they never spoke about the money. She has been actively working for many causes, and the idea of promoting tourism for an Indian state appealed to her. She isn't in the country till December, as she is busy shooting for her American show. She is also looking forward to the release of her Hollywood film. But she really wants to be part of this campaign, and will take a call on it soon."
