Meryl Streep indeed turned heads with her acceptance speech at the recently concluded Golden Globe Awards, which not only attacked US President-elect Donald Trump, but also much inspiration for the artists out there.

Moved by Streep's speech, Bollywood actresses Priyanka Chopra and Anushka Sharma went all emotional and shared their words of appreciation for the star.

Sharing her snap with the 'Devil wears Prada' star, PeeCee tweeted, "Quoting my favourite #MerylStreep from last night. When u have a broken heart...turn it into art. You are astounding! #fangirl."

On other hand, bowled by the speech, Anushka took to her social media handle to pen her thoughts beautifully.

 

Her thoughts started with, "I have had the pleasure of seeing the work of one of the greatest artist of our times - Meryl Streep. She is a genius actor no doubt, and like Viola Davis said about her - 'She is a thief, she stares at you scans you to portray you if need be in some character she will play', which made me think of this..."

The heartwarming note further said, "The process of the work an actor does is often not understood by people and that's ok because that's not the point. Because as Meryl said- "An actor's only job, is to enter the lives of people who are different from us, and let you feel what that feel like", and it went on.
