Priyanka Chopra has been announced as the headliner of the India Conference at Harvard University, Massachusetts, USA. The Indian actor, who has been active in Bollywood, Hollywood, and beyond, is in the company of many distinguished invitees at the one-of-a-kind event celebrating its 23rd year. It will take place on the University campus on February 14 and 15, 2026. This year’s theme is touted to be “The India we Imagine”.

Esteemed Guests Include Priyanka Chopra, Shashi Tharoor, Among Others

Led by students across disciplines at Harvard, the India Conference brings experts from diverse fields like economics, culture, education, and business. This year’s guests of honour include Chopra, Member of Parliament Dr. Shashi Tharoor, and badminton ace P. V. Sindhu. Other prominent names include fashion designer Manish Malhotra, Brigade Group MD Nirupa Shankar, and UNESCO Chair Amitav Acharya.

So, how does Priyanka Chopra fit into this list? The 43-year-old actor may have moved her home base from Mumbai to Los Angeles, but she has maintained her deep connection to India. She became a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador in 2016 and has spoken about protecting children against violence. Her diverse filmography, alongside her social consciousness, makes her a unique addition to the Harvard India Conference this year.
