Priyanka Chopra was among several Asian luminaries honored at the fifth annual Gold House Gala in Hollywood, where she received the prestigious Global Vanguard Honor Award for her significant impact on Asia-Pacific culture.
The ceremony, which also honored Charles Melton, Elaine Joo, Jet Li, Simu Liu and Revathi Advaithi, gave Priyanka a meaningful platform to celebrate the women who shaped her, just days before Mother’s Day.
Priyanka Chopra credits her mother Madhu Chopra And novelty for its values
When she took the stage to accept her honor, Priyanka Chopra turned the spotlight away from herself and toward the women in her family. Inspired by fellow honoree Revathi Advithi, she spoke about how her mother, Dr.
Madhu Chopra and her grandmother (Nani) have always emphasized the importance of education and building a ‘skill set’. She attributed these values to generations of women before her.According to a Moneycontrol report, in a special moment of her speech, Priyanka told her mother: “Thank you for being the foundation of who I am, for always being a student of life.”On the red carpet, Priyanka also spoke candidly with Good Morning America about the most important lesson her mother ever taught her.
“My mother has taught me many things since I was little, as all mothers do, but standing up for yourself is something she taught me when I was very young, and I’m definitely trying to teach my daughter to do that,” she said.On her Mother’s Day plans, she shared, “I don’t know how we celebrate, but just because we’re together. Honestly, we don’t have any special plans because it’s about celebrating mothers, but I have special plans for my mom and my mother-in-law and a lot of amazing mother figures in my life.”
Beautiful wishes from Madhu Chopra on Mother’s Day
Priyanka’s mother, Madhu Chopra, also joined in the celebrations by sharing a video wishing everyone a Happy Mother’s Day. In it, she said: “Happy Mother’s Day to all of you, from one daughter, from one mother to another.” “I hope you thrive and grow with your children,” she added warmly.
