Mumbai, Aug 8
Global sensation Priyanka Chopra is the latest celebrity to jump on the latest 'Kinda Chic' trend on social media.
The 'Barfi' actress took to her official Instagram handle on Saturday and published a gamut of pictures, pointing out all the things that make her feel 'chic'.
Her latest social media post went something like this, 'Kinda chic to have been underestimated', 'Kinda chic to start over in your 30s', 'Kinda chic to stand out', 'Kinda chic to play more...unless it's the victim', 'Kinda chic to move continents without plan', 'Kinda chic to be in my 90s era in the 90s', 'Kinda chic to have started as a baddie', 'Kinda chic to have met your husband at the Met Gala', Kinda chic to wake up and chose violence', 'Kinda chic to be on the ISRO merch mailing list', 'Kinda chic to say no without any explanation', 'Kinda chic to marry my Bollywood hero', 'Kinda chic to have your baby be best friend with your best friend's baby', 'Kinda chic to be a little human's safe space', 'Kinda chic just to try...and see what happens'.
As the caption, PeeCee wrote, "kinda chic to hate this trend (sic)."
The "Kinda Chic" trend is a viral Instagram movement where netizens share everyday actions that, according to them, make them feel stylish and confident. This latest trend is focused on promoting self-love.
Talking about Priyanka's professional lineup, she will be seen playing the leading lady in SS Rajamouli's forthcoming Telugu epic 'Varanasi'.
With Mahesh Babu and Prithviraj Sukumaran also as a part of the core cast, the action-adventure drama is expected to reach the movie buffs by April, 2027.
Priyanka will essay the role of Mandakini, a fierce historian who helps protagonist Rudhra (Played by Mahesh Babu) during his globetrotting mission to save the holy city of Varanasi from an asteroid named Shambhavi.

Honestly, this trend is a bit too self-indulgent for my taste. But I have to respect Priyanka for calling it out in her caption - "kinda chic to hate this trend" - that's the self-awareness we need. Also, can we talk about 'Varanasi' with Rajamouli? That's going to be massive!
"Kinda chic to have started as a baddie" - she's right though! From playing negative roles in Bollywood to becoming a global icon, that's a glow-up story. And being on the ISRO merch mailing list? That's the most Indian flex ever. 🇮🇳 Proud of her!
Moving continents without a plan is actually super brave. Most people wouldn't have the guts to do what she did - leave a thriving Bollywood career and start fresh in a new country. This trend might be shallow, but PeeCee's journey is anything but. Inspiring stuff!
Are we not going to talk about how 'Varanasi' is coming only in 2027? That's like three years away! Mahesh Babu, Prithviraj, AND Priyanka - this is a dream cast. Rajamouli is going to make history again, mark my words. Also, PC saying "no without explanation" is such a power move.
"Kinda chic to be in my 90s era in the 90s" is such a clever phrase. It's refreshing to see a celebrity be this candid and even poke fun at the trend she's participating in.
