In a throwback interview with the Hindustan Times, Priyanka had spoken about her relationship with her brother, Siddharth. She had said, “We have grown up squabbling and fighting as most siblings do. He is the younger one technically, and so, I did my duty as the older sibling and bullied him mercilessly. But no matter what I did, he would be there for me, with a smile on his face and love in his eyes. I think the strength of the bond that we share is tremendous. A lot is unsaid between us, but we know that no matter what, we’ll always be there for each other. We used to do a lot of masti (fun). I was the ‘general in command’, and Siddharth was my willing sidekick.”
After his first public appearance with Neelam, Siddharth had taken to his Instagram and had posted a picture from the party. The party was attended by his mother, Madhu Chopra, his rumoured ladylove, Neelam, VJ Anusha and television actress, Puja Banerjee along with her fiancé, Kunal Verma.
