Mumbai, Nov 25 (IBNS): Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra on Tuesday wielded the broom for Clean India drive in Mumbai, after being nominated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Unlike other celebrity nominees, the Mary Kom actress went all out and took the responsibility to revamp an entire area in 16 days. 
 
Taking help from BMC and Sun Foundation, Priyanka chose a village in Versova in Mumbai. 
 
She was actively involved as she picked up the garbage herself and even advised the residents to keep it clean. 
 
"Here it is... My contribution towards the #SwachhBharatAbhiyan http://flr.pt/1rgPdwF  @narendramodi @PMOIndia," the actress tweeted posting the video link of her work.
 
Here's the link to the video- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFy3sqpIjKE&feature=youtu.be.
 
She also thanked Modi for nominating her for being a part of this mission.
 
"Gandhiji said 'Be the change you want to see'- thank you @narendramodi for reminding me of that! #MyCleanIndia can happen! #ChangingMindsets," Priyanka tweeted.
 
Her efforts were also appreciated by the PM himself.
 
"An innovative effort by @priyankachopra. It is a wonderful way to bring people together to create a Swachh Bharat. Kudos! #MyCleanIndia," Modi tweeted.
