en Bollywood News Elnaaz Norouzi joins 250,000-strong Munich protest for Iran; says “They risk their lives for freedom”

The actress attended the Valentine’s Day demonstration called by Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi while in Germany for the Berlinale.

Actor and global artist Elnaaz Norouzi participated in a large-scale protest in Munich on February 14, 2026, expressing solidarity with the people of Iran. The demonstration, reportedly attended by over 250,000 members of the Iranian diaspora and supporters, was called by Iran’s Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi and is being described as one of the largest gatherings held outside Iran in recent years.

Norouzi, who is currently in Germany for the Berlin International Film Festival (Berlinale), travelled from Berlin to Munich to be present at the protest. The event took place on Valentine’s Day, a date traditionally associated with love, which for many participants symbolised solidarity and collective support for those protesting within Iran.

Sharing her thoughts on the experience, Elnaaz said, “I cannot even begin to explain how heavy this feels. We are seeing our loved ones suffer back home. Standing there in the protest, even for a few hours, felt like the least I could do, to let them know they are not forgotten and they are not alone.”

She further added, “This day is called Valentine’s Day, but for us it is about a different kind of love. It is love for our brothers and sisters who step onto the streets knowing they may never return. They risk their lives for freedom. So those of us outside Iran must raise our voices louder, safer, and stronger for them.”

Elnaaz also acknowledged the messages of support she has received from India. “I have received so many messages from people in India saying, ‘We stand with you, we stand with Iran.’ That support gives me strength on days like this. It reminds me that this is not only Iran’s fight, it is a human fight,” she said.

Through her participation at the Munich gathering, Norouzi joined thousands calling for freedom, dignity and justice for the people of Iran.
