"But my mother never let me or my sister feel our father's absence and nurtured us with comfort," Chopra told a press conference here.

Asked whether she had any ill feelings towards men, she said, "I do not have any ill feeling towards men and even towards by father as well."

"I thank my father, may be, what I am today is because of him," Chopra said.

Asked about her plan to join Bollywood, Chopra said she was getting lot of offers from Bollywood as well as from corporate houses, but she has not yet signed any film.

Chopra was here to take part in a fashion show-cum exhibition organised by a private fashion technology institute.
