Priyanka Chopra’s Mom Says, “I Barely Knew Him That Time,” as She Recalls Nick Jonas Sweet Proposal

Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas’ love story is nothing short of a fairy tale. When the couple announced their roka in 2018, fans were thrilled. An Indian superstar was set to marry one of Hollywood’s biggest pop sensations! Nick and Priyanka had been dating for a few months when the singer realized she was “the one.” He proposed to her in Greece, but before taking that big step, he followed a traditional approach and asked Priyanka’s mother, Dr. Madhu Chopra, for her hand in marriage.

In a conversation with Filmygyan, Dr. Madhu Chopra recalled how Nick planned a special moment to seek her blessing.

Ek din Nick mujhe bola ki main aapko lunch pe leke jaana chahta hun. Leke gaye lunch pe. Wahan poochne lage ki kaisa ladka aapne socha hai Priyanka ke liye. Maine bataya falana, falana boxes hone chahiye tick. Toh mera haath pakad ke kehta ‘Main woh aadmi hun. Can I be that person? Aur main aapko promise karta hun ek bhi aapka box untick nahi hoga’. I was so like, amazed and unprepared. But I was very happy because itna suthhar ladka hai. Very like a... describe karna bohot difficult hai, I barely knew him that time but toh bhi ek impression aata hai ki solid hai.

How adorable is that? Nick’s genuine and respectful approach clearly left a lasting impression on his future mother-in-law. The proposal story also connects to the couple’s matching tattoos. Priyanka once shared that when Nick proposed, he told her, “I checked all his boxes, and would I check another one.” To mark this special moment, the couple got matching tattoos—Priyanka has a check and a box behind her ears, while Nick has the same design on his arms.

From winning over Priyanka’s heart to impressing her mother, Nick Jonas proved that he was the perfect life partner for the Bollywood diva. This wholesome story is just another reason why fans adore this power couple!
