Yet Another First For Priyanka Chopra, Honoured At The Marrakech International Film Festival For Her Contribution To Cinema

Priyanka Chopra has long list of firsts to her name in her nearly two decade long career as an actress. A true global icon, the actress was recently honoured with the Danny Kaye Humanitarian Award and now she has gone on to become the first celebrity to get a tribute at Jamaa El Fna square at the Marrakech International Film Festival currently underway in Morocco.

The actress whose film Bajirao Mastani was also screened at the event said,  “I am thrilled to be returning to Marrakech, after attending the Festival in 2012 for the Tribute to Hindi cinema. It is such an honour to be recognised this year with a tribute on the Jemaa El Fna Square before the Moroccan public, who have always showed so much love and support throughout my career.”

The global star was a stunner at the red carpet in a white saree. Priyanka thanked fans for coming out to support her at the Jamaa El Fna square.

Priyanka also was a part of the In Conversation sessions where she spoke at a panel discussion and spoke fiercely about her winning streak and said, “A wave a change only comes when someone decides to do something different. I like being in the unfamiliar territory. I like winning when people don’t expect me to.”
