\u2022 Recently, Priyanka Chopra was recorded talking about her schooling experience in the US as a child. Apparently, kids used to ask her \u2018dumb\u2019 questions like, \u201cDo you ride elephants and cows to school?\u2019\u201d She said, \u201cThey couldn\u2019t believe that we had cars. I was so mad. I had a project coming up for my final grade and I went home and stayed up all night. I printed out images of modern India: of Mumbai, technology, and all of the cool stuff we have. I remember I got an A on that presentation.\u201d She also added, \u201cI\u2019ve always felt like I\u2019m an ambassador for India. It\u2019s something I\u2019ll continue doing as long as I can.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 When American singer Kelly Clarkson credited Priyanka Chopra for fixing her makeup during a show, Priyanka immediately credited the kind act to the Indian in her! She said, \u201c”It’s also the Indian in me, I think. It’s a very cultural thing for me, being all up in your business and be like ‘Let me just get you! Come here, come here, show me your face. Clean you up, go on ahead’. It’s very cultural!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 Priyanka Chopra has never missed an opportunity to celebrate an Indian festival. And what\u2019s more! Courtesy, PeeCee, Indian culture is being seen on the world stage. Her grand celebrations of Indian festivals have always made global headlines. Recently, her Diwali pooja with beau Nick Jonas in tow caught the media eye.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 Priyanka\u2019s conscious choices of international brand partnerships mean more representation for India. As part of the Victoria\u2019s Secret Collective, Priyanka Chopra made no qualms about the fact that she was doing this for representation. She took to her Instagram to post about it. She wrote, \u201cRepresentation matters. It\u2019s crucial for us to show everyone ALL over the world that they matter and are seen! As a founding partner of #TheVSCollective and advisor to the business this is exactly what I intend to do.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 When India was in trouble during the second wave, our desi girl immediately jumped into action by requesting the U.S. government to share their vaccines with India. In an emotional video, PeeCee appealed for help. \u201cIndia is my home and India is bleeding. I\u2019ll tell you why we need to care – because unless everyone is safe, no one is safe. So, please use your resources and focus your energy on helping stop this pandemic. Please donate,\u201d she said in the video. She also rallied the troops globally, set up a fundraiser and raised INR 22 Crore for India\u2019s COVID relief fund.
