Priyanka dedicated song to her father
In the clip, Priyanka held a mic and said, "This is for my daddy." She then sang Mariah Carey's 1993 song Hero. Simi captioned the post, "India's Most Desirable Priyanka Chopra Jonas. Her dad's dream for her was that she should become an international singer. She exceeded it by becoming a super global star!

Simi also commented, "Never 'forget fighting' for your honour. You had the courage to defend your values - and yourself. I wish you continued strength to live your life on your terms. I wish you peace of mind. I wish you daily joys. You are a true hero. Believe it! (smiling face with halo emoji)."
