Top Bolywood actress Priyanka Chopra is all set to lead the 27th India Day Parade as Grand Marshal in New York in August to celebrate the country's 60th Independence Day.

The annual parade, which will be held Aug 19, is organised in Manhattan by the Federation of Indian Associations (FIA) and attracts thousands of people every year.

Announcing details of the parade at the Indian Consulate in New York, earlier this week, FIA president Shobhana Patel said that comedian Johny Lever would be the chief guest. The theme of the parade would be "Women's Shakti" (power), Patel said.

Music composer A.R. Rahman, who is on a concert tour of the US, was present at the function.
