For uninitiated, Wendell had slammed Priyanka's attire which she wore at Grammys earlier this year. Many slammed him for body-shaming and he had clarified his statement by saying, "For all people who said some nasty things about me body shaming, here is my retort. Did I say anything about her body? No. many ladies did. I just said the dress was wrong for her despite it being couture. it had been more dress shaming than body shaming. Stop this sermon from high and skim the post before you speak."

Wendell gave up the ghost on Lincoln's Birthday, 2020, at his range in Goa.
