Priyanka Chopra's Karwa Chauth prep begins in full swing; Malti’s Mehendi steals the show

Priyanka Chopra Jonas is already soaking in the festive spirit of Karwa Chauth 2025. The global star gave her fans a glimpse of her celebrations in advance, sharing a video of her freshly applied mehendi on Instagram. The design had “Nicholas” written in the center of her palm, a sweet nod to her husband, Nick Jonas. In another heartwarming post, Priyanka showed her hand alongside her daughter Malti Marie’s tiny palm, both beautifully adorned with delicate henna patterns.

It’s not the first time Priyanka has gone all out for the festival. No matter which country she’s in, she finds a way to keep her Indian roots alive. Whether it’s Diwali, Holi, or Karwa Chauth, she brings her own touch of warmth and glamour to each celebration.

Rooted in tradition, soaring across continents

Even after years of living in Los Angeles, Priyanka’s connection to India and its festivals remains strong. Her social media often becomes a window into how she continues to celebrate her culture with pride. What makes her approach special is the balance she strikes between her Indian upbringing and her global lifestyle. In one of her earlier interviews, Priyanka had shared how she and Nick may come from different faiths, she from a Hindu background and he from a Christian one, but are “spiritually aligned” in their beliefs. She said that both see faith as a path toward the same higher power, and that shared understanding keeps their relationship grounded and full of respect for each other’s traditions.

Love, family, and new beginnings on screen

Priyanka and Nick’s love story has always had fans swooning, from their grand wedding at Umaid Bhawan Palace in 2018 to the arrival of their daughter Malti Marie in 2022. Their family moments often make the internet smile, and this year’s Karwa Chauth celebrations seem no different.

On the work front, Priyanka has an exciting year ahead. She’ll be teaming up with Mahesh Babu for the first time in SSMB29, directed by SS Rajamouli, and will also star in the Hollywood adventure film The Bluff, alongside Karl Urban and Ismael Cruz Córdova.

With her hands full, literally and figuratively, Priyanka continues to prove that she can balance her career, family, and culture with effortless grace.
