September 13, 2017 14:57 IST

There's a story behind every picture.
Some of the stories are so lovely, they deserve their space in the sun.
In this series, InstaStories, we let pictures on social media tell their beautiful back stories.

 

Priyanka Chopra has posted lovely pictures with her new friends -- Omaima, 16, Seba, 17, Shaimaa, 14, Hanin, 15, Maria, 15, Wafaa, 13, Ayat, 16, and Maram, 15 -- from a school in the Za'atari refugee camp.

She has posted a video of Wafaa, a huge Katrina Kaif fan, and it's a must watch!

Priyanka writes, 'This is a special shout out to one of Indias biggest movie stars. @katrinakaif this video is just for you, all the way from Za'atari Refugee camp in Jordan. This is Wafaa, one of your biggest fans and her message roughly translated is "I love Katrina Kaif a lot and I am one of her fans. I have watched all her movies and never missed one, even if a movie is played more than once I watch it. I love you Katrina and love your beauty".'

'I was especially told to give messages of love to these Massive Indian film superstars, who are favourites at Za'atari... SHAHRUKH KHAN, SALMAN KHAN, AKSHAY KUMAR, KAREENA KAPOOR and ANUSHKA SHARMA... a big shoutout to you all and Hindi movies from these amazing kids who are huge fans...our movies give them some much joy .. This was something I honestly did not expect...but it made my day.'

'Who would think that what we do as entertainers would give people a sense of hope, relief and escape in such dire circumstances. This post is for all my colleagues in the Entertainment Business around the world... know what we do sometimes has such an deep impact on people's lives and goes beyond just the mere entertainment people look at us for.'

Priyanka is in Jordan, as a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador, and she met up with Syrian refugees in the country.
