PC Shares Heart-Warming Message With Sexual Abuse Victims, Says 'We're Beautifully Different'

  • PC Shares Heart-Warming Message With Sexual Abuse Victims, Says 'We're Beautifully Different'

Priyanka Chopra is taking over the world, quite literally. After riding high on success in Bollywood, the actress tried her luck in the west with Quantico. Our 'desi girl' has impressed one and all in Hollywood too. So much so, that in no time she bagged her debut film, Dwayne Johnson starrer Baywatch, which is all set to release this month.

 

Apart from this, she has been producing regional films in India too. Whenever the diva gets time, she tries to hop between the countries to strike a balance between her work commitments and family life.

 

Recently, she made headlines for her Ralph Lauren trench coat that she sported at the Met Gala 2017, and post that, the UNICEF's Goodwill Ambassador flew to Zimbabwe to promote UNICEF's initiative to end violence against children.

 

She has been sharing pictures and videos of her meetings with young survivors of sexual abuse, the adolescent-led peer groups that help rehabilitate them along with their tireless adult mentors on social media. These are "the teams that wake up every day and try to make the world a better place... one child at a time," Priyanka writes on Instagram.

 

One video has struck many as particularly moving. As Priyanka poses for pictures with a group of young people, many of them begin stroking her long, silky hair.

 
 

A giggling Priyanka says, "Very fascinating my hair is, thank you."

 

"It's nice - it's different from ours," says one girl. "Less kinky"

 

"Yeah, but mine is too straight," replies Priyanka, earnestly. "Yours is so nice and pretty and curly."

 

"It's not," laments the girl, with a frown on her face.

 

"Yes, it is," insists Priyanka. "It's beautiful."

 

"No, yours is beautiful, ours is kinky"

 

"By the way, it's different - beautiful," someone off-camera interjects. "You guys have beautiful hair."

 

"It's really pretty, don't let anybody tell you it's not," says Priyanka.
