One of Hindi cinema's
most famous faces abroad, Rai Bachchan in her new role will be mainly advocating for the Global Plan, launched in June last year and focused on India and 21 countries in sub-SaharanAfrica.

Rai Bachchan took the Miss World crown in 1994 and made her debut in Bollywood in the late 1990s.
She has since gone on to star in more than 40 mostly Hindi films as well as a few foreign movies, includingThe Pink Panther 2.
She married fellow actor Abhishek Bachchan in 2007 and is well-known for her appearances on the red carpet at the Cannes film festival. She had her first child in November last year.
