Los Angeles/IBNS: Bollywood star Priyanka Chopra, who stays in Los Angeles, has shared the harrowing visuals of the wildfire that has engulfed the city of California in the United States.

In several Instagram stories, Priyanka, a prominent face in Hollywood now, shared the visuals of the raging wildfire that has threatened the Hollywood hills.

"My thoughts are with everyone affected. Hope we are all able to be safe tonight," wrote Priyanka sharing a video from his place.

Five people died and one lakh people were evacuated as a fresh fire broke out in the Hollywood hills.

Several Hollywood celebrities including Adam Brody, Tom Hanks, Ben Affleck fled their homes which were burnt down.

The wildfire has engulfed the Pacific Palisades area which houses outgoing US vice-president Kamala Harris, Rihanna, Jennifer Aniston.

LA Mayor Karen Bass posted on X, "We are deploying LAPD officers to respond to Hollywood to help alleviate evacuation traffic. We are working urgently to close roads, redirect traffic and expand access for LAFD vehicles to respond to the growing fire."

Another 37,000 people have been displaced due to the Palisades inferno, BBC News reported.

Due to shortage of water, the firefighters resorted to collecting water from swimming pools and ponds to douse the fire.
