Priyanka Chopra Jonas never shies away from talking about her family on social media. She has often said that she was very close to her late father Ashok Chopra, and still is close to her mother Madhu, and how they have been a great support for her. In a recent interview, the actress opened up on how her mother's advice had an impact on her life.
She shared that it was her mother who told her that at the 'ripe old age' of 30, Priyanka might not have a career, which led to her opening her production house Purple Pebble Pictures in 2015. Speaking to Hindustan Times, Priyanka said, "When I joined the film industry (and that goes for both, in America and in India), there is always an opportunity for the big guns, who have been established. It takes a really long time for writing, directing, production, acting talent to be able to get through the doors. My company was all about giving opportunities to smaller, more quaint stories and that's how the regional cinema thing started."
