Priyanka Chopra
is visiting Syrian refugees in Jordan as part of a UNICEF initiative. PeeCee
interacted with young boys between 10-18 years and she went all out to
entertain them.
PeeCee posted a
video of her attempt at a rugby toss along with a child. She shared the video
with the caption: “Excuse the bad cartwheel and lame attempt at a Rugby
toss...This is a Makani 'Drop In' Center for underage boys who work, they are
referred to as "Child Laborers." Most of the boys are between 10 and
18 years old, work 6-12 hours per day, and literally drop in after work to play
and receive an informal education, as well as learn life skills. Many of the
boys you see in these pictures have only just started to learn how to read and write,
since the priority for most of these boys is to provide sustenance for their
families. The teachers here work 3 shifts each day to accommodate the influx of
kids to give them a chance to work and study. We must do our bit. This is what
WAR looks like. Consequence of Conflict. To donate please go to UNICEF.org or
click the link in my bio. @unicef #TheyAreUs #ChildrenUprooted.”
In one of the
other pictures, the actress is seen playing catch with the kids. Check out her

A couple of days
ago, Priyanka took down a Twitter troll like a boss. She was questioned:
"I would request @priyankachopra that do visit rural areas of India where
malnourished kids waiting for food. #MissionForChildren."
PeeCee known for
her tongue-in-cheek replies had the best response in store. The gorgeous diva
took no time and replied "Ive worked w/ @UNICEFIndia for 12 yrs&visited
many such places. What have u done @RavindraGautam_ ?Y is 1 childs prob less
imp than another?"
