For the unversed, last year on Mother’s Day, the Citadel actress had posted about how her little angel was in the NICU for 100 days. She had expressed gratitude towards the hospital staff and the entire team of doctors who helped the Jonas family to get their little baby home.

During her interview with the Today Show, Priyanka recollected the time when Malti’s was born. She said, “This is another really amazing example of strength that my husband has. I kind of…like shut down, I didn’t know how to react. I remember he just held me by my shoulders, and I said, ‘Just tell me what to do, because I don’t know what to do.’ And he’s like, ‘Just get into the car with me.’ And we drove to the hospital. She was born, and from the moment she took her first breath to now, she’s never been without one of us, ever. I don’t think it was our test. I think it was her test, I realized very, very early that I did not have the luxury to be scared or to be weak, because she was scared and weak. And I had to be her strength as her mom. I needed to make her feel at every given moment that she’s not alone…that we’ve got her.”

She further added, “You know your child is alive, because you can see their heartbeat (on the monitor). I couldn’t sleep for days, because now suddenly she was home without a monitor. I used to put my ear on her chest. I would wake up every couple of minutes just to see if she was OK. For weeks, this went on.”

On the work front, Priyanka has Citadel. It is produced by the Russo Brothers’ AGBO and showrunner David Weil. Alongside Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Richard Madden, the 6-episode series features Stanley Tucci and Lesley Manville in pivotal roles. She also has Love Again and Heads of State in her pipeline.

Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut expressed in her recent tweets that it is unfair to evaluate someone based on their gender or sexual orientation, and those who do so will not succeed in life.

Kangana Ranaut: “What you do in the world is your identity, not what you do in bed”

Taking to Twitter on Friday, Kangana spoke about gender neutrality. She tweeted, “Whether you are a man/woman/ anything else your gender is of no consequence to anyone but you, please understand. In Modern world we don’t even use words like actresses or female directors we call them actors and directors. What you do in the world is your identity, not what you do in bed. Whatever your sexual preferences are they must remain in your bed only. Don’t make them your identity card or medals and flaunt every where. Most importantly don’t roam around with a knife to cut every throat who don’t agree with your gender. I am again saying your gender is not your identity don’t make it that way. I am a woman from rural area life gave me no concession I had to make my own place in the world of actors, film makers, producers and writers.”


She further added, “Never ever see people from the lens of gender or any other physical attributes. You know what happened to those who thought Kangana is just a woman. They were in for a big surprise because I am not, I never see/perceive myself or anyone else that way. I am always in a room full of people, individual energies only people not men/women/homo/hetro/ physically strong or weak, no!!!!!! I would have not come this far had I judged everyone around me and myself on so many levels …. Why you all waste so much time on physicality of people around you, please understand you won’t go very far if you have such limiting view and perception of the world ……. and those who don’t judge others will never judge themselves either …. So free yourself from gender or any other limiting perception…. Rise and shine as who you are and Dharma says you are God absolute divine way beyond the physical… All the best.”
