Priyanka Chopra : “My Dad Never Stopped Me From Pursuing My Dreams” !
Watching Priyanka play the small-town girl who leaves home to become a model in the metropolis in Madhur Bhandarkar’s Fashion was a deeply emotional experience for Ashok Chopra, Priyanka’s father.
“He just broke down. Watching my character Meghna in Fashion, he saw his little girl from Jamshedpur going all the way to Mumbai to become Miss World. In fact his sense of identification with that whole portion in Chandigarh where I’m this plump Punjabi girl leading a sheltered life with her parents, was very deep,” Priyanka said from Dubai where she attended the Fashion premiere.
Also, my dad never stopped me from pursuing my dreams. He was concerned, yes. But never disapproving like Meghna’s father. In fact my dad moved to Mumbai to be with me when I decided to move to Mumbai,” she added. Source
