Kaif also requested her followers to do their “bit” as the earning from every book sold will benefit the girls in the book and will also give a boost to Malala Fund’s work for girls’ education.
Malala replied to Katrina in a heartwarming comment and she also thanked the Bollywood star for supporting her and hoped that the stories of girls will inspire the people all over the world.
On October 2012, 15-year old Malala was shot in the head at point-blank range by Taliban gunmen as she was on her way home in the school bus in Swat valley.
She went on to become the youngest recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize at the age of 17 in recognition of her efforts for children’s rights and women’s education.
