Priyanka gets witty on the Koffee couch

Though she remained coy about her relationship with Shahid,Priyanka had no qualms commenting on Kareena in Koffee with Karan.

Priyanka Chopra recently shared the couch with Shahid Kapoor on Koffee With Karan and displayed every sign of being in a relationship with the actor except for saying so. The actress also retorted wittily to Kareena Kapoors comments,which the latter had earlier made about her on the show,and managed to stump Johar.

Priyanka also joined hands with Wave,a philanthropic organisation that works for the cause of women. She has elicited special interest in the education of the girl child and plans to organise a charity concert and perform in it to raise funds. The actress reached the venue of the event in an auto-rickshaw after her car broke down.

On the professional front,she will be playing a prostitute named Kaali in the remake of Karan Johars Agneepath as well as star in the sequel of Krrish with Hrithik Roshan. 2011 seems to be a promising year for Priyanka as she will be seen in Vishal Bhardwajs Saat Khoon Maaf,Farhan Akhtars Don 2 and Anurag Basus Barfee.
