Malala Yousafzai has had the last laugh on comedian Hasan Minhaj after he joked that he didn't follow her back on Instagram. Read more here:

During one segment where Minhaj was "honest" with the audience, he admitted to not following Ms Yousafzai on Instagram - despite the Nobel Peace laureate following him."Malala [Yousafzai] follows me on Instagram and I don't follow her back," he said in the special.

After seeing the clip, Ms Yousafzai posted a poll, asking her followers whether she should unfollow Minhaj. Most of her followers said they didn't even know who Minhaj was, while many encouraged her to unfollow the comedian.Capitalising on the controversy, Minhaj posted a mock news video, in which he broke down the whole saga.

"I'm sorry Malala, follow me back. I don't know if I'll follow you though. I am that petty," he said in the clip.Hollywood and Bollywood actor Priyanka Chopra joined Ms Yousafzai in unfollowing Minhaj.Notably, Minhaj took aim at Chopra's marriage to Nick Jonas in his routine. “Priyanka Chopra’s wedding was fake. Why can’t we say that? Who marries Nick Jonas unironically?” the comedian quipped.
