2019 is on the brink of ending. 2020 is just underway and yet western media still can’t tell South Asian celebrities apart. “New York Magazine<\/strong>“<\/em>\u00a0mistook Padma Lakshmi for Priyanka Chopra.<\/p>\n

Padma Lakshmi is an American author, actress, model, television host, and executive producer. She is the host of US cooking competition program Top Chef<\/strong>. She has hosted the show continuously since Season 2 with 16 being the latest.<\/p>\n

Padma or Priyanka?<\/h3>\n

New York Magazine held an event where celebrities picked their favorite New Yorker cartoons. Many Hollywood stars chimed in with their favorites such as Steve Martin, Mindy Kaling, Larry David, Seth Meyers and many more.<\/p>\n

Amongst those celebrities was Padma Lakshmi, who was also chosen to pick her favorite cartoon.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re marinated in hot water for six hours.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 selected by padma lakshmi<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Though the now edited version<\/em> does portray Laksmi’s name. The original post (now deleted) had Priyanka Chopra’s name instead of the Always Be my Maybe<\/em><\/strong> star.<\/p>\n

Eagle-eyed fans noticed the reversal which Lakshmi playfully delivered to the publication \u201cHahahahaha! I see what you did there,\u201d<\/em> wrote one person. As Padma deliberately tagged the “New York Daily News<\/strong>”\u00a0instead of the New Yorker Magazine.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Celebrities to the rescue<\/h3>\n

While Padma shrugged off the mishap. Celebrity Natalie Portman also responded to the error<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Padma had earlier spoken to the Indian times about Indians finding their place in the West.<\/p>\n

“I am very happy to see many more Indian faces on TV and in the arts and in publishing… It was hard to be an immigrant in the 1970s and 1980s. I am lucky that I managed to somehow find a place for myself. It is not like that I had a grand plan. There was no guarantee that I would be successful,”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
