Kangana Ranaut named brand ambassador for the World Para Athletics Championships in New Delhi

Updated 18 Jun, 2025

Actor turned politician Kangana Ranaut has been named the Brand Ambassador of the New Delhi 2025 World Para Athletics Championships, which will be held from September 27 to October 5 this year. This is the 12th edition of the sporting event and touted as the largest para sport event ever held in India.

The news of her appointment was announced by the Paralympic Committee of India as well as on Ranaut’s X page where she said, “It is a true honour to stand with our para-athletes and celebrate their indomitable spirit.”

Ranaut took oath as a BJP member of parliament for the state of Himachal Pradesh in 2024. She has also starred in a number of movies, including Queen and Tanu Weds Manu.

The New Delhi 2025 World Para Athletics Championships competition programme will feature 186 medal events (101 men’s, 84 women’s and one mixed) — 15 more than the last edition of the championships in Kobe, Japan.

This event marks the fourth time Asia will be hosting the World Championships — Doha 2015, Dubai 2019 and Kobe 2024. The event is organised by the World Para Athletics, a branch of the International Paralympic Committee.

When is it our turn to host the Para Olympics or Olympics even in Pakistan? Oh never mind. Now that would have been relevant and relatable news to us. Or whether Pakistan has any participants attending.

@Zarar Naseer While the relevance of this news can be questioned, I am not sure banning news from one specific country is productive. News exist to report....news. Dawn newspaper has different sections. You can stick to the Pakistan only section, if you so desire. But on Images, the culture section, you will find news from the world. The world also include India.

I am better commenting on comments by others. There are fault finders everywhere in your publications. I could not find any logic in one comment "who cares"? Negative people are real dangers and enemies of humanity. Another branding her 'RSS agent'...just for the sake of comment writing bu****it. Introspect before uttering each word.
