She stated, “As a new parent right now, I keep thinking that I will never be imposing my desires, fears, my upbringing on to my child. I have always believed that children come through you, not from you. There is no belief like this is my child and I will shape everything. They come through you to find and build their own life. Recognising that really helped me, my parents were very non-judgemental in a certain way.”

Dr Madhu Chopra and the late Dr Ashok Chopra are Priyanka’s parents. In the army, both of them worked as doctors.
