In an embarrassing goof-up during a political rally by Indian opposition party Congress in New Delhi, a legislator apparently confused the name of Priyanka Chopra with Congress politician Priyanka Gandhi.
In the video clip going viral on social media, Congress legislator Surender Kumar can be seen gesturing to the crowd to repeat after him and shouting into the mic: “Sonia Gandhi zindabad (long-live),...Priyanka Chopra zindabad (long-live)".
Realising his mistake, the person presiding over the mic immediately apologised for the error, but it was too late as the tickled crowd had already realised what had happened and fits of laughter took over the rally.
