When Priyanka Chopra was trolled for comparing her future husband to her father

Priyanka Chopra, a global icon, is making headlines as the highest-paid actress in Indian cinema. Marking her return to Indian films after six years, she has reportedly charged a staggering ₹30 crore for SS Rajamouli’s upcoming movie starring Mahesh Babu.
The highest-paid actress in Indian cinema
Priyanka, a global icon, continues to dominate the industry with her record-breaking earnings. She previously charged $5 million (approximately ₹41 crore) for her web series Citadel. Now, with her ₹30 crore fee for SS Rajamouli’s upcoming film starring Mahesh Babu, she has become the highest-paid female star in Indian cinema.
The story behind the 8-carat diamond ring gifted by her parents
An old video of Priyanka Chopra is now making rounds, where she recalls receiving an 8-carat diamond ring from her parents on her 28th birthday. The clip is from her appearance on The Anupam Kher Show, where she shared the story behind her first diamond ring. “Both my mom and my dad gave me a ring present: a 8-carat diamond. I was very excited, obviously. Press me. Likha kisi ladke ne di hai ya engagement ring hai as usual. But they were disappointed when I told them that my father gave me the ring. Unka logic tha ki agar tumhara dad tumko itni badi ring de sakta hai, to jo banda tumhari Zindagi me aaye, usko isko beat karna padega.”
Comparison
Post the video went viral online, netizens reacted by trolling Priyanka Chopra for comparing her father to her future husband, suggesting that it placed an unnecessary burden on the man she would marry.
The love story
The desi girl is married to Nick Jonas, and their love story feels like a fairytale. It all began in 2016 when Nick sent her a direct message on Twitter, to which Priyanka responded by asking him to text her instead. The two exchanged numbers and stayed in touch. Before their iconic appearance at the Met Gala 2017, they first met in person at the Vanity Fair Oscars after-party the same year.
