Priyanka Chopra has often been vocal about her thoughts be it standing up for herself or her views about working in the film industry. In a recent interaction, the actress’ mother Madhu Chopra recalled how her daughter was scared of director Tarun Manshukhani during Dostana’s shoot.
In an interview with Lehren Retro, Priyanka Chopra’s mother Madhu said, “Tarun, as I know him today, was not the same Tarun. He was a very scary man. One day, Priyanka had a high fever. She asked for a pill, and I gave one to her. She was insisting that she would go to work. But even after an hour or so, the fever wouldn’t subside. I told her that she must rest it out and not go to work. She asked me to tell Tarun because she didn’t want to be the one to break the news to him.”
Madhu then further said, “After hearing Priyanka wants to take off, Tarun says How convenient. Madhu didn’t take the comment well said, if you want her to die on your set, I’ll send her. But, if something happens to her, but you’ll be responsible for it”. Now, all is well between them.
