Katrina Kaif named global tourism ambassador for the Maldives
Katrina Kaif Is Now The Global Ambassador Of The Maldives: The Maldives has appointed Bollywood actress Katrina Kaif as its global tourism ambassador. Maldives Marketing and Public Relations Corporation (MMPRC) announced Katrina’s name on Tuesday. The Maldives has chosen Katrina to promote its tourism and especially to attract Indian tourists. Last year, the government of Mohammed Muizzu of the Maldives had taken some such decisions, due to which it had to face the anger of Indians. This has had a direct impact on the tourism industry of the Maldives. To save its tourism, the Muizzu government has now taken the help of popular actress Katrina Kaif.

MMPRC Managing Director Thoyyib Mohammed has said that making Katrina Kaif its global brand ambassador is a proud moment for us. On the other hand, Katrina Kaif said that Maldives is a symbol of natural beauty, where peace meets beauty. I feel honored to be chosen as the face of the sunny side of life.
Katrina Kaif’s name has been announced at a time when relations between India and the Maldives are going through a delicate phase. After Mohammad Muizzu became the President of the Maldives at the end of 2023, he showed a pro-China attitude. He gave slogans like India Out, due to which his relationship with India started getting sour. After Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited Lakshadweep last year, some controversial statements came from the Maldives, which angered Indians showed anger and started a campaign to boycott the Maldives. This worsened the relations between the two countries a lot.

The luxury resorts and serene beaches of the Maldives have been a favourite destination for Indian travellers, but things have changed after the controversy. With Indians choosing other countries over the Maldives, Male has tried to set things right.
