Priyanka Chopra owns London Diwali night in red as she praises women creators and keeps it real

Highlights:

  • Showed up in a killer red outfit and everyone was sneaking glances all night.
  • Snapped a pic with Anoushka Shankar, the sitar legend herself.
  • Got completely caught up in a close-up card magic trick.
  • Jetted in from other celebrations in New York and Delhi during a packed few weeks.

Priyanka Chopra was back in London for yet another Diwali shindig, this one thrown by Johnnie Walker and Rahul Mishra. Of course, there are already a ton of phone videos floating around. No surprises there. Anoushka Shankar was in the guest list too, and the photo they took together was iconic. Then there’s Rahul Mishra, obviously, and manager Anjula Acharia nearby. The whole place was done up with diyas and marigolds and looked festive and warm, not too staged. Felt like an actual party, not just another red carpet.
