Actress Priyanka Chopra says her cousin actress Parineeti Chopra deserves a slap for saying that she finds it awkward to stand next to a fit and sexy Priyanka

"She needs a slap. I will throw her into the gym right now. I never heard her say something like that, but she is someone who is effervesent, energetic and beautiful. I guess it runs in the family," said Priyanka.

Parineeti lost oodles of weight for her debut film "Ladies Vs Ricky Bahl". Her next, "Ishaqzaade" will hit theatres May 18. It features Boney Kapoor's son Arjun as her co-star.
