Jacqueline Fernandez extends her prayers for Sri Lankans with a heartwarming note

Sri Lanka has hit the headlines due to its inevitable economic downturn, which has harmed daily life in the country. Not only have staples' prices skyrocketed, but Sri Lankan President Gotabaya Rajapaksa has also declared a state of emergency under the public security ordinance. 

As the Sri Lankan financial downturn has gained international attention, Sri Lankan beauty Jacqueline Fernandez has reacted by expressing her hope that the crisis will be resolved soon.

Taking to her Instagram account, Jacqueline shared her prayers for Sri Lanka. She penned,

"As a Srilankan, it is heartbreaking to see what my country and countrymen are going through.I have been flooded with a lot of opinions since this began from around the world. I would say, do not be too quick to pass a judgement and vilify any group based on what is shown. The world and my people do not need another judgement, they need empathy and support. 2-minutes of silent prayer for their strength and well-being will bring you much closer to them than a comment based on a loose grasp of the situation.To my country and countrymen, I am hoping this situation comes to an end soon and through means which are peaceful and for the benefit of the people. Praying for immense strength to those dealing with this. Peace to all!"

Jacqueline has been busy in the past few days with the promotions of her films. She was seen in Bachchhan Paandey alongside Akshay Kumar and Kriti Sanon. Currently, her film Attack, where she stars with John Abraham and Rakul Preet Singh, is running in the theatres.
