It's nice to see her remembering her roots with the Holi and family pics. Sometimes our stars get too Hollywood, but she hasn't forgotten where she came from. Respect.

As someone who followed her journey from Bollywood to Hollywood, this is inspiring. The Quantico era was groundbreaking. She paved the way for more South Asian representation.

While her achievements are great, I wish she did more films in India now. Bajirao Mastani was iconic! Hollywood roles are good, but her Bollywood work had a different charm.

The Obama dinner pic is a flex! Shows how far she's come. From winning Miss World to dining at the White House – that's a proper success story.
