“I have a home in Mumbai. I have a home in New York, a home in L.A. But I live in Mumbai, I work in New York. I run through a passport in almost a year. One passport’s done, because I travel so much. Actually, I have nine, from the first time. I just have five now because I have valid visas in them, otherwise, I run out of papers to stamp.”

Netizens react to Priyanka having an Indian passport, despite residing in New York

As soon as the video was re-circulated, a thread on the same was started, and netizens began to poll in their views on the same in the comment section. Well, a major section of netizens pointed out why Priyanka doesn’t want to take a US citizenship, despite being married to Nick Jonas, who is a born US citizen. Moreover, some netizens even highlighted how holding US citizenship while having a home in some other country as well and giving up Indian citizenship would limit her rights in her home country. A user commented, “I won't judge PC if she takes the US citizenship, but I also know I would be in minority and she'll get trolled to hell”. Another user wrote, “India doesn't allow dual citizenship, so she may be holding onto her Indian passport in case she ever wants her Bollywood career to be revived.”

When Priyanka remembered her first date with Nick, the latter invited her to the White House

In her previous interviews with Howard Stern, Priyanka remembered her first-ever date with Nick Jonas. PeeCee revealed that she was initially hesitant about it, as she did not want to suffer another heartbreak. For their first date, Priyanka revealed, Nick had invited her to the White House as his plus-one for the farewell dinner of former US President, Barack Obama. She revealed that understanding her inhibition, Nick first took her along with a few other friends of theirs to watch a movie, so as to lessen the pressure of a first date. The duo ended up being together for eight hours straight that day.

When Nick Jonas gave a hilarious explanation of the varmala ceremony during his Hindu wedding with Priyanka

In an earlier interview with People, Nick Jonas shared some fond anecdotes about his Hindu wedding with Priyanka Chopra. The talented singer recalled the varmala ceremony, and hilariously called it a difficult game. He added that the bride and groom are lifted by their respective family members and they in turn, try to put the garland around the other. In his words:

"There's this one moment in Indian weddings where the bride and groom are lifted on the shoulders of their family members and there's sort of a game that's played where this garland is put on each other. They try to be the first to put the garland on the other. And it's surprisingly difficult, especially when you have someone as competitive as me and Pri. But whoever is the one to put it on first, that side of the family is the more dominant."
