/> The television channels were abuzz earlier this week with the rumour that Priyanka Chopra had committed suicide on foreign shores.

"Arrey, why would I want to do something like that? Okay... my last film didn't do well. But so what?" she jokes and bursts into laughter.

"But seriously, who starts these death rumours? First it was Shah Rukh and then Ash who were targeted. Now it's me... whoever starts these rumours does a good job of it. News about my 'suicide' spread like wildfire.

"I had anxious inquiries all day long, including from the family. Fortunately my bua is here in Adelaide with me, so she spent her time assuring everyone I was alive."
