As the Coronavirus outbreak claims more victims, Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra thought that the time was right for doing the ‘handwash challenge’.

Before we proceed, lets watch this video:

Looks like most celebs are trying to stay relevant by making any Coronavirus-related videos. We get it though because even regular people are struggling to hold on to a job in a world with COVID-19.

People on the internet have a lot of opinions about this video. Some say she is being pompous and tone-deaf, because really, how do they expect people in third world countries to wash their hands. There aren’t enough toilets in some places!

Some folks decided not to take Priyanka’s video too seriously. They had a good time and shared a laugh.
This video is fake. Because there is no Nick Jonas in it. 😂😂😂😂

This was just mellow in some cases celebs are being slammed for being so out of touch. One more example of this would be Pharell Williams asking people to donate for hospitals.
