UNICEF Goodwill ambassador row: Kangana Ranaut comes out in support of Priyanka Chopra

In February this year, after the ghastly Pulwama attack, Indian Army retaliated with an airstrike in Balakot. Following the airstrike, the entire nation congratulated the Indian Air Force. Bollywood celebs too congratulated IAF, and one of these stars was Priyanka Chopra, who also happens to be UNICEF’s goodwill ambassador.

Recently, Priyanka was labelled as a ‘hypocrite’ for promoting war. At Beautycon in LA, the actress was slammed by a Pakistani woman for showcasing her support to Indian Army despite being a goodwill ambassador. However, Priyanka handled the situation quite gracefully.

Coming out in support of Priyanka is none other than her ‘Fashion’ co-star Kangana Ranaut. At a recent media interaction, opening up about this row, Kangana said,“It’s not an easy choice to make. When you are stuck between your duty and your emotions, being a UNICEF goodwill ambassador sure you can’t limit your identity to one nation, but how many of us choose heart over mind every day.”

Now Pakistan’s Minister for Human Rights Shireen Mazari and several others have penned an open letter urging Priyanka should be removed from her post of UNICEF’s Goodwill ambassador.
