/> The India Day Parade in New York on August 19 was memorable for Priyanka Chopra for more reasons than one.

Apparently the eager crowds of Indians broke through the barricades and the Governor of New York City got jostled in the process.

Laughs Priyanka, "That's true. As soon as I come out on the road people broke the barrier. The cops had to form a cordon around me, and this angered the Indians. In the jostle that followed the Governor got pushed.

It was wonderful to connect with the Indians there. I had been to school in New York for three years as a teenager.

And I know how close Indians abroad feel to their home. There were about 120,000 people there. Apparently there had never been a turnout like this at the Parade before. There was such a jubilation because of 60 years of our independence. Their excitement was inspiring. I don't mind reaching out to fans, as long as they remain civil."

After the parade there was a banquet to honour Priyanka. She also spent time with her best friend who lives in New York.

She was back in Mumbai on Wednesday morning to shoot a song for Harry Baweja's Love Story 2050 while her co-star Harman is in Norway for Sanjay Kapoor's film.
