Parineeti Chopra Misses Raghav Chadha, Tunes into His Parliament Speech from London

Actor Parineeti Chopra, currently in London, is navigating her long-distance marriage with politician Raghav Chadha in the most heartwarming way. On Wednesday, Parineeti shared a video on Instagram of herself watching Raghav’s Parliament speech live on Sansad TV, showcasing their unique way of staying connected despite the miles between them.

In the video, Parineeti is seen intently watching Raghav’s speech. She captioned the post, “From binge watching shows to watching his parliament speeches on Sansad TV – who knew? The only way to see him LIVE – from miles away! #LongDistance.”

The post quickly garnered attention and left fans in awe. “Awwww…lovely,” commented one social media user. Another added, “Omggggggggg how cute.”

Last week, Parineeti praised Raghav, an Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MP, for addressing the issue of film piracy in Parliament. During his speech in the Rajya Sabha, Raghav highlighted the severe impact of piracy on the cinema and OTT platforms, noting a 62% surge during the COVID-19 lockdown. He stated, “Piracy is a significant plague that is all pervasive in the film industry and now in the OTT world as well. The film industry is facing a loss of Rs 20,000 crore annually because of piracy. Online piracy saw a 62% surge during the pandemic. We passed the Cinematographic (Amendment) Bill, a year back but it lacks a concrete mechanism against online piracy and focuses largely on anti-cam recording in multiplexes.”

Raghav further questioned the government’s efforts to combat digital piracy, “As we go digital with more movies being streamed on platforms, I ask the Government what is being done to curb the issue of digital piracy on OTT and whether the government has any plans to bring a dedicated legislation for the same?”

After Raghav’s speech, Rajya Sabha Chairperson Jagdeep Dhankhar humorously noted, “He knows much about the film industry. Off late, he’s gained experience.” Parineeti took to social media to express her pride, writing on X, “You’re a star for raising this important issue in Parliament, my love.”

Parineeti and Raghav tied the knot on September 24, 2024, at the Leela Palace Hotel in Udaipur, Rajasthan. The intimate ceremony was attended by close friends and family, including notable figures from both the entertainment industry and politics.

Sunny Deol, the Bollywood star, was also recently spotted at the Mumbai airport, exuding casual charm in a breezy shirt and olive pants, completed with a black bucket hat. Sunny, who has been a prominent figure in the film industry, continues to stay in the spotlight with his ongoing projects.
