Actress Priyanka Chopra's father Dr Ashok Chopra died on June 10, 2013 at Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani hospital in Mumbai suburban after a prolonged illness.
Mr Ashok Chopra was first diagnosed with cancer in 2005, when Priyanka Chopra was working on Bluffmaster. He had been in and out of hospital ever since. Earlier this year, he and wife Madhu Chopra accompanied Priyanka to the TOIFA Awards held in Vancouver, Canada.
Priyanka Chopra has reportedly put her projects on hold, including the biopic of boxer Mary Kom.
The actress was famously very close to her father and often paid him tribute in interviews. She wore her heart on her sleeve with a tattoo on her wrist that read "Daddy's Li'l Girl," a phrase she also used to describe herself on her Twitter account.
She also spoke about her father when she began her second career as a singer, calling it her "dad's dream." When her first single In My City was released, Priyanka said, "My dad was not all that happy when I became an actor and won national awards, like he is today."
Ashok Chopra had been a doctor with the Indian Army and the family travelled around India on military postings while Priyanka was growing up.
