At the heart of the issue is Gloria Steinem – a global feminist icon, writer, and activist whose lifelong work continues to inspire and empower generations. Gloria’s Foundation is created to carry forward her legacy, with a mission to advance the feminist movement and support the next wave of changemakers.
Deepika Padukone is truly the Queen of Bollywood, and her reign transcends boundaries. With her stellar performances and contributions to the entertainment industry, Padukone has created a mark for herself, globally. More than just a celebrated superstar, she is a global icon who has made India proud on international platforms time and again.
Yet again, Deepika has pinned India on the global map as Hollywood Chamber of Commerce honours Deepika with her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for the class of 2026 in Motion Pictures category. Announced over a live-stream, it becomes even more special as Deepika becomes the only Indian to receive this prestigious accolade. Our Indian superstar shares the class with Emily Blunt, Timothée Chalamet, Rami Malek, Rachel McAdams, Stanley Tucci, Demi Moore and many more renowned performers.
