Bollywood actor Priyanka Chopra congratulated Pakistani filmmaker Saim Sadiq on his movie Joyland being awarded at Cannes 2022 and the brief but sweet exchange between the two artists across borders is all we needed to see today.
The Quantico actor took to Instagram and posted a series of stories to appreciate the awardees at Cannes. She started off by congratulating them and made a special shout out to “all the powerful talent from Asia” for getting the “recognition” they deserve.
Chopra posted photos of the Asian teams among the awardees, starting off with Joyland and mentioning the awards that they bagged. The movie won the Cannes Queer Palm prize for best LGBT, “queer” or feminist-themed movie and the Jury Prize in the Un Certain Regard segment.
