Of course, DP entered the top 10 in the list where she was position on number 10, while the other top 10 included celebs like Melissa McCarthy, Amy Adams, Jennifer Lawrence a lot of others. Salman too managed to catch a 14th spot in the top 20 while SRK and Akshay entered the top 10 highest paid actors on the list.

In the list, they misspelled Deepika Padukone and Salman Khan’s names as Peedika Padukone and Salman Kahn. This was carried by several big media houses. Now it clearly is a typo error and these kind of mistakes happen a lot. However, fans are not the ones who’ll take this reasoning as Miss Padukone’s fan brigade soon started trolling the media by calling it ‘Poorbus’ and stuff like that. Being the highest earning actress in Bollywood and making a nice cut and entering the top 10 highest paid worldwide as well, it was quite a surprise to many fans that the name was printed wrong. So far Bhai fans haven’t reacted to this but DP fans are not the kind to keep mum. Tweet after tweet started flooding as they involved Priyanka Chopra in this comedy of errors!

We all gotta admit that we did expect Priyanka Chopra to take a position in this list considering her achievements in the recent past. Well, you can only imagine what happened when Priyanka and Deepika fans got a hint of this error! The PeeCee fans started trolling Deepika’s PR team and even Forbes for the same. It is very well known that the XXX: The Return of Xander Cage actress’ fanclub is damn active. Hence started a lot of trolling and celeb bashing. You can see from the tweets attached above that they were pretty damn mad about this blunder.

Salman Deepika names misspelled

This isn’t the first time a publication has been under fire coz of Deepika. Remember not so long ago when Deepika accompanied tennis star Novak Djokovic she was referred to as a ‘female companion’ by a UK tabloid and Ms Padukone fans were so offended that they even managed to extract and apology and corrected post from the publication. This time too was no different and this episode just proves that the actress fans don’t take things lightly, not as far as their queen is concerned.
