Priyanka Chopra along with her mother Dr. Madhu Chopra forayed into production with Purple Pebble Pictures in 2015, with the aim to promote new talents and also to produce small budget films. Since then they have come a come a long way.

“We have clashes! This is because she (PC) talks from the creative point of view and I look at it as a business," says Madhu Chopra and adds, "Film making is just a passion for Priyanka, she does not think money. She tells me that commercial is my lookout."

However, Mrs. Chopra quickly states that they don’t let these difference spoil their relation. “We do have matured, sensible discussion when we don’t agree on something. It’s very difficult to run a production house like this."

Till date, the production house has produced two Marathi films Ventilator and Kya Re Rascalaa and one Punjabi film Sarvann. The comedy-drama Ventilator has also gone on to win three National Awards.

A successful star in Bollywood and in West, Priyanka was never spared when it came to criticism and gossips. From being trolled for wearing a dress to meet the Prime Minister of India or criticized for wearing tricolor duppata on the Independence Day, she has faced it all. But when asked how she deals with her daughter being under the scanner every time, senior Chopra says, “Initially it used to be difficult for both of us - Priyanka's dad (Ashok Chopra) and I, when we used to hear rubbish. But then she sat both of us down and said, ‘You know what I am, why do you read all those things?’ She later even stopped magazines and newspapers from coming home. 'If it's worrying you’ll don’t get it,' she says!  But now it does not worry us. We know that it is the drawback of her profession and so now we have made peace with it.”

"It’s only sheer diligence and hard work that has got Priyanka this far. She is very focused and does not get distracted, work is her only aim and that's what I like about her declares the proud mother. I also wish that my daughter stays more in India and make some films here," says Madhu, before signing off.
