Priyanka Chopra, a Bollywood actress, has appealed to US President Joe Biden and other US government officials for assistance in India’s war against COVID-19.

The actress, in a tweet from her official account, urged government officials to “share vaccinations” because “the situation in my country is critical.”

She wrote in her tweet that the US ordered about 550 million more than was needed, “My heart breaks. India is suffering from COVID19 & the US has ordered 550M more vaccines than needed @POTUS @WHCOS @SecBlinken @JakeSullivan46 Thx for sharing AstraZeneca worldwide, but the situation in my country is critical.”

However, the actress’ tweet was met with some criticism of some Twitter users claiming that it was posted too late. Others chastised the actress, claiming she should not have waited too long to support a vaccination programme.
