While touching upon the unfortunate and tragic passing of Priyanka Chopra's father, the actor's memoir reveals that shortly after the tragedy, she was diagnosed with depression in 2013. That was the year in which she had a released a film called Deewana Main Deewana, which also starred Govinda. In addition to the same, she shared that working on "Mary Kom", proved to be therapeutic for her as she channelled the grief of her father's loss into her performance. She can also be seen sharing that due to her personal tragedy, the producer of the film had given her the option to commence work at a later date. But, Priyanka Chopra, who is the daughter of an Army Doctor, couldn't have taken up the offer as the sense of duty and discipline that she had inherited from her father didn't exactly allow her to take the producer up on that offer in question. Priyanka Chopra's Unfinished also sees the actor looking back at a time when one of her co-stars, who happened to be a superstar, used his connections in order to help her then-ailing father to the best of his abilities. Priyanka Chopra's father, Dr. Ashok Chopra, passed away on 10 June, 2013 in Mumbai after succumbing to Cancer-related complications.
