Priyanka and Nick had a grand wedding in Udaipur as per Hindu and Christian rituals. Ever since then, when Nick comes to India, everyone goes like 'Jiju aa gaye'.

She has been leaving no stone unturned for the same in London. During an interview with Bollywood Hungama, she was told about Indians calling Nick, 'jiju'. Priyanka was also asked if she would like to change the same or whether both of them liked it. She said:

"No, I think Jiju is really cute and he loves it. I love it. I feel so warm."

Nick for years has been known as 'jiju' by his Indian fans and it has not changed even after years of being married to Priyanka. When the actress was further asked in the interview who would be the better spy and blow up a cover at first, Priyanka did not take a second to say that it had to be her. She also added that, having played the role of a spy in the past, her fans would feel that Nick will be a better spy, but that has not been the case. However, she did note that her husband had the best poker face.

"As you know I am married to Priyanka. When we got married this hashtag started. I was ‘National Jiju.’ Jiju means elder sister's husband, so effectively I'm the older brother to India."

Nick, earlier in an interview with the BBC, also spoke about how once he was in Mumbai with Priyanka when the Ambanis had opened up their cultural centre, which was a phenomenal event. He did feel overwhelmed when the paps called him 'jiju'. Nick and Priyanka, after marrying in 2018, had attended the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre (NMACC) opening with many other Indian stars.
