My World Is Incomplete: Priyanka

Melancholy and nostalgia surrounded actress Priyanka Chopra on her late father Ashok Chopra's birth anniversary Saturday.

Sometimes I talk too much...But today I prefer silence for company, it's nice. The sound of silence. Happy birthday papa. I miss u (sic),’ Priyanka posted on Twitter in the wee hours of Saturday.

Sleep eludes me tonight...memories...thoughts...running...like a hamster...silences.. it's too sunny. And I just need some shade. Happy birthday papa. My world will always be incomplete without you,’ she added.

Priyanka always found a great support system in her father, who passed away after a battle with cancer last year. A doctor by profession, he had retired from the Indian Army in 1997 as lieutenant-colonel.

The actress, looking forward to the release of Mary Kom, a biopic which will see her playing Olympic bronze medallist boxer M.C. Mary Kom, has a tattoo of Daddy's Li'l Girl on one of her forearms.
