Diplomacy does not exist in Sonam Kapoor's lexicon and she is known to ruffle a few feathers with her honest statements.
The Neerja actress chose Priyanka Chopra over Deepika Padukone when she was asked who was a better actress by host Neha Dhupia on the latter's upcoming audio chat show No filter Neha.

While her answer doesn't come as a surprise, we have to wait to know Kapoor's reason for choosing Chopra.
Both Kapoor and Padukone made their debut on the same day, same year. Sanjay Leela Bhansali launched Kapoor with Saawariya, and Padukone was Farah Khan’s girl-next-door in the reincarnation drama Om Shanti Om. While Saawariya bombed, Om Shanti Om went on to become a blockbuster hit.
Both Chopra and Padukone have been going great guns in their career, finding plum roles even in Hollywood. They were both seen together in Bhansali's 2015 historical drama Bajirao Mastani.
