Priyanka Chopra’s wedding with American singer Nick Jonas is likely to be remembered for a long time to come. From her all-red, heavily sequinned lehenga choli to her ‘Bollywoodesque’ pre-wedding functions, this was one big fat Punjabi wedding. However, what has become a talking point is the train of her wedding gown.

The stunning and embellished Ralph Lauren gown wowed one and all but what was most noticeable was her exceptionally long train. At 75 feet, her Tulle train has inspired Twitter to come up with numerous memes. Ever since the first official pictures arrived, the internet has been flooded with memes about Priyanka’s train. From being called a ‘machhardaani’ (mosquito net) to being compared to the covering of a cricket pitch, Twitter had a field day over her dress.
