Priyanka Chopra is all set to return to Indian cinema with SS Rajamouli’s highly anticipated film SSMB 29, her mother, Madhu Chopra, revealed in an interview with Lehren Retro. During the conversation, Madhu also shared an emotional memory of how Priyanka lifted her spirits by organizing a surprise birthday celebration, featuring John Abraham, just days after her husband's death.

Madhu Chopra’s Birthday Celebration

Madhu recalled how, despite the family's grief, Priyanka was determined to celebrate her 60th birthday, just six days after her husband's demise. She said, “He 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 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. She said, ‘That’s what Dad would have wanted.’”

Since Madhu is a fan of John Abraham, Priyanka made the celebration even more special by inviting him as a surprise guest. “They had requested John to come at midnight, wrapped like a birthday present. Imagine that! Priyanka said, ‘No, Mum has to have her moment.’ It was such a fun party with a DJ and music. But the rest of the family sat there gloomily, saying, ‘Look at her! She’s dancing! Does she not grieve for her husband?’"

"Meanwhile, I was thinking, ‘My daughter arranged all this; my kids put in so much effort. They’re all suffering and grieving, but this is how she is honouring her dad.’ Priyanka even said, ‘I am honouring his wish, and you better fall in line with it.' That’s the person she is.”

Madhu further mentioned that John, dressed in a bow tie, looked absolutely adorable. When asked if any photos from the celebration exist, she admitted she wasn't sure if anyone even thought of capturing the moment.
