Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra on Tuesday received the Padma Shri, India's third highest civilian honour, from President Pranab Mukherjee at a glittering function at the Rashtrapati Bhavan in New Delhi.

Her performance in last year's Bollywood release, Bajirao Mastani won her many accolades. On the work front, Priyanka is currently busy with her Hollywood film Baywatch, alongside actors Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron. 

Expressing her happiness over the honour, Priyanka took to Twitter and wrote:
