International actor-producer Priyanka Chopra took Instagram to mourn her father’s 8th death anniversary. Priyanka shared an image from her memories on her social media. The post features a childhood photo of hers with her dad. “It never gets easier… loves you, dad,” wrote the actor along.
The note on the post read, “From my earliest years, my dad and I had an understanding: Whenever he was performing at the army club he would look me in the eye during the first song. The New Year’s Eve I was five he forgot, so I started to leave in a huff. Dad jumped off the stage and pulled me up onto it with him, coaxing me into a duet—a nursery rhyme—and winning my forgiveness.” She captioned the post, “It never gets easier… l love you, dad.”
She has also opened up about dealing with her father’s death in a recent conversation with Oprah Winfrey on the latter’s show Super Soul, adding that it changed her ‘relationship with God’.
Madhu also shared a picture of her late husband and wrote, “Forever and always loved!”. Priyanka reposted her mother’s post on Twitter. Ashok Chopra was a physician in the Indian Army and died on June 10, 2013, after a long battle with cancer. At the time of his death, he was 62 years old.
