Actor Trisha Krishnan was conferred the UNICEF celebrity advocate status for child rights at an event held in Chennai on 20th November 2017. She is the first actor from the South Indian film industry to receive this honour, which was previously bestowed upon Bollywood celebrities like Nandita Das, Madhuri Dixit, Kareena Kapoor Khan and Raveena Tandon.
She will voice the rights of young people, especially girls. The actor will support the efforts to address problems faced by children in Tamil Nadu and Kerala such as anaemia, early marriage, labour and child abuse. Interacting with over 50 children at the function, she said education for girls was a magic bullet that would eliminate social evils.
