In a new interview, Dr Madhu Chopra, Priyanka’s mother, revealed that her daughter once threw her a grand birthday party, days after her husband’s death in 2013, and it also included Bollywood heartthrob John Abraham as a birthday gift.
“He [her husband – Dr Ashok Chopra] passed away on June 10, and my birthday is on June 16. I was turning 60, and they had planned a big party for me,” the celebrity mother recalled. “The whole family was already there due to his illness. After his passing, we were grieving, but Priyanka insisted that we go ahead with the party and asked everyone to stay.”
“Priyanka said, ‘Mum has to have her moment. That’s what Dad would have wanted. I am honoring his wish, and you better fall in line with it,’” she added.
Dr Madhu continued to share, “It was such a fun party with a DJ and music. They had requested John to come at midnight, wrapped like a birthday present. Imagine that!”
