Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas are officially engaged now, and before they made the announcement, pictures from their roka ceremony on Saturday, before an engagement party, made it confirmed. Apart from congratulations, social media is filled with comments, showering love on the American singer.
Nick won everyone's heart by his sweet gesture of following Indian traditional practices for his lady love. The roka pictures showed Priyanka and Nick participating together in a puja. The actress wore a lovely yellow dress, and the American singer complemented her sporting a sherwani.
The pictures showed Nick engaging into Indian customs along with PeeCee, which made many go aww on the would-be bridegroom. People have been appreciating Nick for going full "desi" style for his "desi girl".
His attempt to understand and be connected to Priyanka's culture grabbed everyone's attention. Ever since the rumours of the duo dating each other came up, many negative comments were made about their age and culture difference. Some had even speculated that this relationship would not reach to the extent of marriage.
However, the Quantico actress and Nick proved all those wrong, and took the first step towards being together forever. Not just Nick, even his parents embraced Indian culture by participating in the ceremony wearing Indian attire. Many have been saying that Nick and Priyanka showed what true love is all about.
"She's too old! He's too young! Auntie ran away with a kid! He was 10 when she won Ms World! Publicity stunt! It won't last! An insult to Indian culture!" Blah. Hers was a big FU to all the haters & she chose to live her life the way she wanted! Atta girl! #PriyankaNickEngagement [sic]," one fan tweeted.
Check some of the responses on Twitter, praising Nick for his acceptance of Indian culture.
