We are talking about DJ Khushi, who was assigned the task of spinning the disc at the traditional roka ceremony of Priyanka and Nick. In a statement given by him to a media portal, DJ Khushi said, “Nick Jonas is more Indian than American. He was such a sport and was letting his lady lead the way throughout the celebrations. Both of them make such a beautifully co-ordinated couple and their sense of music is pretty much similar.”
His statement could be further read as, “Friends and families danced on songs by Cardi B and Drake. In Bollywood numbers, songs like ‘Ban ja rani’ and ‘Bom diggy diggy’ and of course the biggest wedding song in the country – ‘Gallan goodiyaan’, which is a song from Priyanka’s movie, were a big hit. I was given a mandate of keeping the mood energetic and breezy. My set started with a lot of deep house towards the early evening followed some of pop, hip-hop and R&B, and then as the night progressed…Bollywood.” (Also Read: Priyanka Chopra Dances Crazily At Her Engagement Party, Nick Jonas' Expression Is Priceless)

In a throwback interview, Nick opened up about how he met his lady-love, and stated, “We met through a mutual friend who she did Quantico with, this guy Graham and we met up like in New York the first time and the same day I think we found out that we are both going to the MET gala with Ralph Lauren. And as strange as it sounds but we couldn't have planned it. We just had a great time. She's a lovely person and I'm dying now to go to India.”
And in another article, a source was quoted as saying, “Nick has been obsessed with Priyanka since they started dating. He obviously thinks she’s beautiful, but he’s also drawn to her intelligence. She has this charisma and energy that draws you to her, and she’s fit in so well with his friends and family.” And recently in June, Priyanka and Nick came for a short trip to India where the hone wala damaad met the former’s family.

Talking about the same to a media portal, PeeCee had cited, “It was a great catch up time. It was like a family trip and there were friends with us too. So, it was a friends' and a family trip actually. It was short and sweet. I was there for like 24 hours and I had a great time. It was a great trip.” But when asked about her engagement rumours back then, the Quantico star remarked, “My personal life is not for public consumption. 90% of my life is for public consumption but 10% is for me. I am a girl and I have the right to keep that to myself. My family, friendship, my relationships are things I don't think I need to defend or explain it to anyone. I am not running for the Office, so I don't think I need to give explanations.”
Finally, Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas have made their relationship official and we can’t keep calm! Stay tuned in here for more updates on this lovely made-for-each-other couple.
