MJ was the reason I started loving music: Priyanka Chopra (Film Snippets)

Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra says it was pop legend Michael Jackson's songs that made her start loving music.

"You never know what you have until it’s gone - music just doesn't sound the same without Michael Jackson. He was the reason I started to love music,” Priyanka said in a press release.

"His everlasting songs 'Beat it', 'Bad', 'Thriller', 'Black or White', 'Heal the world', etc and a multitude of his other music, will be an important part of my playlist forever. The world has lost its greatest performer and he will be missed forever,” she added.

Jackson left the world in a shock when he died of a cardiac arrest at his Los Angeles home last week.
