10,000 followers on Twitter in a month; Mallika has 8,000
From Karan Johar to Mallika Sherawat, everyone is twittering these days. But leading the pack is Priyanka Chopra who's set a record by having over 10,000 followers in a month.
Before Priyanka it was Mallika Sherawat who was leading the pack with around 8,000 followers, but Priyanka has now claimed the top spot. A source close to the actress reveals Priyanka's Twitter fixation.
"She's very net savvy and a gadget freak. In fact she was very active on Facebook and when she logged on Twitter, she got hooked on to it.
For her it's the best way to directly interact with fans around the world. She takes time to read each and every message sent to her and replies back as and when she can."
It's not just posting messages, but also taking pictures thats got Priyanka hooked. "Recently she was at a press conference and she went on stage and took a picture of the entire media in front of her.
Then she also took a picture with her mom and brother. This is a chance for her fans to take a sneak peek into her personal life," added the source
When contacted Priyanka said, "I'm having a lot of fun. It's a great way for me to interact with my 'tweeps' directly... with no one in between!
I think now that people have realised that it's really me on twitter, the number of followers have grown.
It's mind blowing to have crossed this milestone within a month of being on twitter... Now I'm hoping my twitter family is going to grow even more!"
