New Delhi, Nov 5: Hollywood heart-throb and UN Goodwill Ambassador Angelina Jolie will be in the capital on Sunday when she meets Minister of State for External Affairs Anand Sharma.

This will be the first official engagement of Jolie, who is in India since last month for the shooting of a movie on slain Wall Street Journal correspondent Daniel Pearl.

Jolie will be accompanied by UN officials at the meeting with Sharma and the discussions are expected to centre around issues relating to refugees and children.

Recipient of Academy Award and three Golden Globe awards, Jolie was named as the Goodwill Ambassador of UN High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR) in 2001 and since then she has helped bring the forgotten refugee crises to the attention of the world media.

In connection with the refugee work, she has travelled to a large number of countries, including Afghanistan, Pakistan, Russia and Sri Lanka.
