Actor-cum-politician Kangana Ranaut was on Wednesday named brand ambassador of the World Para Athletics Championships New Delhi 2025, to be held in September-October.
39-year-old Ranaut represents Himachal Pradesh’s Mandi constituency in the current Lok Sabha.
“India’s para athletes are rewriting what is possible every single day. I am deeply honoured to support them and help raise awareness about their incredible achievements. Para sport is not just about competition – it is about courage, and I am proud to stand behind our champions,” a press release issued by the Paralympic Committee of India quotes Ranaut as having said.
PCI president and BJP leader Devendra Jhajharia, who is also a two-time Paralympic gold medal-winning javelin thrower, noted: “Her passion, influence, and commitment to India’s athletes make her a perfect ambassador for the New Delhi 2025 World Para Athletics Championships.”
The marquee event will be organised from September 26 to October 5 and will feature athletes from more than 100 countries.
