"Any form of grief will have a duration in which it will become your companion and you have to let it," said Priyanka Chopra
Priyanka Chopra has always been vocal about her personal and professional challenges. In a recent appearance on the Read The Room podcast, the actress talked about dealing with her dad Ashok Chopra's death. She said, “After my dad passed away, I came to a slow but steady conclusion that that kind of pain would never go away. It's your companion. So, if you are thinking of or waiting for the day when it starts hurting less, when it doesn't affect you anymore or when you get over it… You are never getting over it; it becomes a companion.”
She added, “There will be days when it comes out in a biggish way and wants to stay over for dinner or maybe a week, and there will be days when you don't even remember about it until you see a photo and you're like (sigh)… Any form of grief will have a duration in which it will become your companion and you have to let it.”
For the unversed, Priyanka Chopra lost her dad in 2013 after his long battle with cancer.
