In a post on Instagram on May 4, Kareena expressed her gratitude and excitement for becoming the National Ambassador for Unicef India. She emphasized her dedication to advocating for child rights and ensuring an equal future for all children. Kareena reflected on her decade-long collaboration with Unicef India, describing it as enriching and insightful.

She penned, “An emotional day for me. I am honoured to be appointed as UNICEF India National Ambassador. Working with @unicefindia over the past 10 years has been truly enriching and insightful. I am proud of the work that we have done and am reiterating my commitment to being a voice for promoting and protecting child rights and an equal future for all children.”

She concluded her post by acknowledging the dedicated team working towards women’s and children’s rights in India. Kareena reaffirmed her commitment to this cause and looked forward to further collaborations with UNICEF, “A special thank you to the entire team who have been tirelessly working for the rights of women and children across the country. I am inspired every day and am looking forward to our continued partnership,” the actress concluded.

Upon her appointment, Kareena highlighted the importance of protecting children’s rights, noting that they represent the future generation. She pledged to leverage her platform to advocate for vulnerable children, particularly focusing on issues like early childhood development, education, and gender equality. Kareena reiterated her belief that every child deserves a fair chance and a bright future.

She addressed, “There are few things as important as the rights of children, the future generation of this world. I am honoured to continue my association with UNICEF now as India’s National Ambassador. I will strive to use my voice and influence for vulnerable children and their rights, especially around early childhood, education and gender equality. For every child deserves a childhood, a fair chance, a future.”

On the work front, Kareena Kapoor had made headlines when it was rumoured that she was roped in to play a pivotal role in Yash’s Toxic. However, it was reported recently that Kareena Kapoor Khan, who was supposed to be Yash’s on-screen sister in Toxic, has walked out of the film due to date-related issues. “Kareena Kapoor’s dates do not align with the dates of Yash for Toxic. After making efforts to set the calendar right, the makers have amicably parted ways,” a source cited by Pinkvilla said and then added, “Toxic has a strong sibling emotion, and the part of the sister is very crucial to the narrative, warranting the presence of a top star. The makers are looking to cast actresses with Pan India presence for the part.”
