In a recent podcast, Priyanka Chopra opened up about the difficult period her family faced when their daughter Malti was born prematurely and spent several days in the NICU. She described this time as one of the most challenging phases of her life, where she would spend long hours at the hospital praying for her daughter's health and well-being.

The actress revealed that during this challenging period, the media posed threats of leaking information about their daughter's birth, forcing them to announce the news publicly under pressure. Priyanka's candid reflections on these painful moments shed light on the intense personal challenges faced by celebrities, revealing the delicate balance between public life and personal tragedy.
