Actress, activist, and Narendra Modi stan Priyanka Chopra took to Instagram to save face support the changes CBS has made to the show "The Activist". Originally pitched as a competition show where activists would compete to "make meaningful change" in areas of health, education and the environment, huge online backlash prompted CBS to change the format of the show from competition to docuseries. Chopra, one of the three co-hosts alongside Usher and Julianne Hough, said she was "moved" by the criticism and that she was sorry for her initial involvement. In Chopra's own words, "The intention was always to bring attention to the people behind the ideas and highlight the actions and impact of the causes they support tirelessly. I'm happy to know that in this new format, their stories will be the highlight, and I'm proud to collaborate with partners who have their ear to the ground and know when it's time to hit pause and re-evaluate."
