    Mary Kom is and will always be 'champion': Priyanka Chopra

    Priyanka Chopra congratulated boxer MC Mary Kom for clinching the gold medal at the ongoing Commonwealth Games, saying the legendary fighter is and will always be a "champion" for her. Chopra, who essayed the title role in the sports drama "Mary Kom", took to Twitter to praise Mary after she scored her first CWG medal in the women's 45-48 kg category at the games.
