Priyanka Chopra's maiden Marathi production 'Ventilator' wins big at National Awards, actress dedicates it to dad!

New Delhi: Global star Priyanka Chopra has everything falling in place right now and she can't be happier. She ventured into production in 2015 with Purple Pebble Pictures and announced her first Marathi production titled 'Ventilator' in 2016. The film, fortunately, has reaped positive results and has bagged three honours at the 64th National Film Awards.

An elated Priyanka tweeted how happy she was and even dedicated the production house's big win to her late father Dr Ashok Chopra. PeeCee congratulated her 'Ventilator' team and even thanked her mommy Dr Madhu Chopra for her unconditional support.

'Ventilator' has been helmed by Rakesh Mapuskar and happens to be a comedy drama. The story revolves around a joint family whose eldest person goes into coma just a few days ahead of the Ganesh Chaturthi festival. The film released on November 4, 2016.

The film won three National Awards for Best Director, Best Editing and Best Sound Mixing.

PeeCee tweeted:
